After years of worry, unseen peril persists

The alarms continue, despite scores of inspections and repairs aimed at eradicating the deadly threat.

Sun coverage: Mayor Dixon on trial

Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon faces seven theft-related charges stemming from allegations that she stole gift cards intended for the city's needy. She also is scheduled to stand trial in March on perjury charges. If convicted on any charge in either case, Dixon would have to step down and would lose her annual pension. She also could face a fine or jail time.
