So far, 2014 has been an interesting year in the thug world. We have seen the targeting of women - mothers of thugs - and now the targeting of newborn infants.
Rondell Robert Washington was charged in the kidnapping of a four month old baby while participating in a home invasion robbery with six other as yet unknown thugs. You can bet Washington and his band of thugs did not randomly target that particular residence.
Shall we look at Washington's history?
