Case Ruled Homicide For Pikesville Woman Who Died After Head Trauma

PIKESVILLE, Md. (WJZ) — A fatal domestic assault case has been ruled a homicide.

Gwendolyn Jackson, 44, of the 5200-block of St. Charles Avenue, died last month after  suffering from a head injury.

On Nov. 21 at 9:40 p.m., officers responded to the 4600-block of Chickory Hill Lane in Pikesville for a domestic call.  The victim called 911 to report that she and her boyfriend, Herbert Westley Johnson, 52, had gotten into a verbal argument.  Both parties told officers that no physical contact had occurred at that time.

On Nov. 22 at 8:30 a.m., officers were dispatched to Northwest Hospital for an assault call.  Jackson had been admitted for a head injury, and told medical personnel that her boyfriend had assaulted her. The victim's condition deteriorated and she was transferred to Johns Hopkins Hospital due to her condition.

Jackson died on Nov. 23 at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

Her body was sent to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for an autopsy.  Last Thursday, the Baltimore County Police received notification of the homicide ruling.

Johnson, the victim's boyfriend, was arrested at Northwest Hospital on Nov. 22, and was charged with first- and second- degree assault.  He is currently being held without bail at the Baltimore County Detention Center.

Detectives are continuing to investigate the case. Additional charges are pending.

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said. The victim's identity had not been determined as of late Wednesday afternoon. The body was turned over to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office.

Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
