BALTIMORE (Map, News) - A community outreach assistant working for Baltimore City Council President Stephanie Rawlings Blake resigned after she was arrested last weekend on charges of second-degree assault and malicious destruction of property.
According to court documents, Jacqualyn Evans, 27, was taken to central booking after a warrant was issued for her arrest in a domestic dispute involving her ex-boyfriend, former Raven’s defensive lineman Riddick Parker.
Evans struck both Parker and his current girlfriend several times and caused “visible injuries,” records said. Evans later caused $1,000 worth of damage to his 2002 BMW, records said.
Evans was charged with two counts of second degree assault, and one count of malicious destruction of property. She was released on $2,500 bail.
“She submitted her resignation [Thursday] and President Rawlings-Blake accepted it,” said Shaun Adamec, a spokesman for Rawlings-Blake.
“She has some issues in her life that she needs to deal with, and we’re happy to see her do that,” said Adamec. Evans did not return messages left on her office voice mail.
Parker played defensive end for the Baltimore Ravens 2003-2004 team.

Let Tommy do the talking...and it gets back to the wrong people...it will just incite more angry people. Believe me the "potluck" dinners at residents' home don't compare to the fast-food conversations on the corners. It is not like the criminal element is sitting in the park...making plans to harm people...these are removed and relocated folks who remember when...and then get riled-up over the rhetoric. Then they return with a negative reaction...I know from first hand experience...when I heard a teacher tell a group of her students with tears in her eyes that "whites" are taking over the city and your school will disown you. Well, lo and behold the phase out plan was revealed for the high-school and the "told you so choir" started singing. Back to the tears of the teachers it was enough to rally some type of anger in the youths..If you think that tears don't work...we all remember when Hillary shed'em and what was the immediate action after...I rest my case. Are you angry ye

Our system has become a revolving door for criminals who get arrested, a slap on the wrist, and sent home to repeat crimes again and again. These men, regardless of age, should never see the light of day again. They should spend the rest of their lives in prison even though they deserve much worse.

Mr. Santoni and Hartford County Sheriff, I think you both need to learn how a real Chinese Chef holding a "meat cleaver" is more than normal. I hold a knife and argue with my husband all the time in the kitchen, does that mean I should be charge with first-degree assault? If a white man holding a knife and starts arguing with another employee and the witness who is also white and understood the whole argument in ENGLISH, will the witness call the police? or will the witness just mind his/her own business? Was the other person injured? Not according to your article? I think before you write this article you should question the witness whether the the man holding the knife or as you mention in your article "brandishing a knife" meant killing the other employee or the witness was simply a racist and somewhat backslashing all ASIAN in general because of the Virginia Masacre, also and did not understood what the two asian men were arguing in CHINESE! Is that why the witness called 911?
