One of BLM early works.
Questions remain about the death of Freddie Gray, a Baltimore man who died in hospital from spine injuries six days after being arrested by
One of BLM early works.
I completely agree with Murphy, that is no reason for an arrest. However CNN & Snopes both confirmed Freddie Gray had a rap sheet of 20 criminal court cases, the majority involved selling illegal substances. Selling drugs, suspected of being a street-level drug dealer, who was most likely violating his probation and then resisted officer’s instructions and then arrest, should be enough to interact with Gray.
AGAIN! Something weird happened in the back of that van. I truly believe the officers were “grossly negligent” and Gray should be healthy and living out his life behind bars. If we can find common ground on that AND that the violence that took place after his death was wrong, THEN we can have a productive conversation on the events.
I always found it interesting that this was turned into a racial, political movement. The majority of the 6 officers were minorities, did their lives matter?
Direct Quotes:
Mobile phone video from a bystander shows Gray's arrest on 12 April around 08:40 local time (13:40 BST), on Presbury Street in the Sandtown neighbourhood of the city.
Billy Murphy, a lawyer hired by the Gray family agrees. "Running while black is not probable cause," he said.
Ms Mosby called the stop "grossly negligent". She said that Gray had asked for medical help and complained of trouble breathing.
Officer Miller's document says that Gray "suffered a medical emergency" while he was being transported and that he was "immediately transported to Shock Trauma via medic".
He arrived in a critical condition.
Briefing the media on the results of an autopsy on Monday, Deputy Commissioner Jerry Rodriguez said Gray "did suffer a very tragic injury to his spinal cord which resulted in his death". Mr Murphy said that Gray's "spine was 80% severed at his neck".
Demonstrators have taken to the streets to protest against excessive use of force. In early days, most of the protests were calm.
On 27 April, a funeral service for Gray was held. That afternoon and evening rioters tore through parts of Baltimore leaving a path of debris, burnt or smashed cars, and looted storefronts. The National Guard was dispatched in an attempt to restore control and the mayor ordered a curfew between the hours of 2200 and 0500.
Freddie Gray should be celebrating his 33rd birthday today. Terence Crutcher should be celebrating his 46th birthday today. Their lives matter, and they deserved to grow old.
