Baltimore police are scrambling to find an “extremely dangerous” man suspected of murdering 26-year-old tech CEO Pava LaPere, who was found dead in an apartment building on Monday.

The suspect, 32-year-old Jason Dean Billingsley, should be considered armed and dangerous as he is wanted on charges of first-degree murder, assault and other offenses, acting Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley said Tuesday.

LaPere, co-founder of the small startup EcoMap Technologies, was reported missing Monday morning, police said. Hours later, police were called to a downtown apartment building, where LaPere was discovered with signs of blunt-force trauma to her head, Worley said.

    It may be a separate issue for you, but if you’re advocating for throwing away the key like you are, you are advocating for people that were wrongfully convicted to continue be locked up. That’s the whole point, and it went right over your head.

      Are more people wrongfully convicted than shitty ones? If not unfortunately blindly releasing people from prison will do more harm then good. I’m all for reforming the system but just letting convicted rapists/murderers go free with no rehabilitation isn’t the way to go.
