Freddie Gray case: Charges against three remaining officers droppedwww.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/freddie-gray/bs-md-ci-miller-pretrial-motions-20160727-story.htmlCharges against the remaining three Baltimore Police Officers in the Freddie Gray case were dropped Wednesday morning.
The decision was announced at the start of a pretrial motions hearing for Officer Garrett Miller, who was the next scheduled officer to stand trial. Officer William Porter was to be retried in September, and Sgt. Alicia White was scheduled for trial in October.
So....are tomorrows headline are going to read, "BALTIMORE BURNS TO GROUND"; with quotes from "activists" saying, "NO JUSTICE NO PEACE...AND IF IT AIN'T WHAT WE WANTED IT DON'T COUNT AS JUSTICE"? Hope they have a lot of plywood and screws at the local hardware stores there, and that U-Haul has all their rentals gassed up and ready to go.....both for those deciding to evacuate that cesspit for good and for the now well practiced looters to have a better way of transporting their loot as they practice " social justice".

Welp, that Mosby chick is blaming her investigators for her lack of convictions. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/latest-prosecutors-drop-charges-freddie-gray-case-40922253State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby is defending the prosecution of six officers charged in the Freddie Gray case and says she still blames police for the young black man's death.
Mosby spoke Wednesday near the site of Gray's arrest in April 2015. Her comments came after prosecutors told a judge that they were dropping the remaining charges against three officers. Three other officers were acquitted.
Mosby says prosecutors do not believe that Gray killed himself when he was handcuffed and shackled in the back of a police van and stand by the medical examiner's finding that his death was a homicide.
She declined to take questions, citing a lawsuit the officers have filed against her.
Attorneys for the officers planned a news conference for later Wednesday.

Charlotte police officer will not face charges in shooting death of Keith Lamont Scottwww.charlotteobserver.com/news/special-reports/charlotte-shooting-protests/article117921218.htmlNo charges will be brought against Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police officer Brentley Vinson in the September shooting death of a man in University City, District Attorney Andrew Murray announced Wednesday.
Keith Lamont Scott, 43, was shot Sept. 20 in a confrontation with officers outside his apartment.
Murray said that evidence in the case shows that Scott stepped out of his SUV with a gun in his hand and ignored at least 10 commands from the five officers on the scene to drop it.
Murray said that Scott obtained the gun – which had been stolen in Gaston County – 18 days before the confrontation. One bullet was found in the chamber of the gun, the safety was off and Murray said Scott’s DNA was found on the grip and ammunition slide.
Murray said that speculation in the community that Scott was unarmed – initial reports from a family member on Facebook said he was holding a book – were untrue.
“A reading book was not found in the front or back seats of Mr. Scott’s SUV,” Murray said.
Officer Vinson’s gun was examined after the shooting and four bullets were missing, Murray said. Guns taken from the other officers at the scene had not been fired, he said.
People who claimed on social media that they had seen the shooting and Scott was unarmed were later found to be in error – three people who’d made the claim told State Bureau of Investigation agents in interviews that they hadn’t actually seen the shooting.
Murray said he ran the evidence in the case past 15 veteran prosecutors in his officer and they were unanimous in their recommendation that there was insufficient evidence to charge Vinson in the case.*More at link.

The problem is you cant pro-actively contain an entire neighborhood. Nor should you. That being said, I'm all for charging the "false witnesses" with every crime possible. Perjury, false police report, interfering in a police investigation, etc. And frankly if a protest turns to a riot, Anyone caught should field the cost of rebuilding. $1,000,000 in damages, 1 person caught? Sucks to be them. 10 people caught - $100k each, etc. I mean we're a capitalist society. Can we please start acting like it? Perhaps this will encourage all the 'peaceful' folk to turn in and report all the 'non peaceful' folk. I know South Carolina has the "Hand of one..." doctrine.
