It's not a surprise that the charges were dropped, but I feel the prosecuting attorney, Marilyn Mosby, could have done a better job investigating. I mean her top investigator had a very questionable background...

It's ironic how BLM protests for BLM yet three of the six officers are black...

Incompetency is colorless.

What you expected from a police investigations...
They protect their own.

I admire policeman... i've seen every aspect of their work... even the stuff nobody should ever have to do.

However murder is murder. Why these ****s only goes on in the USA?

She chose not to work with the police/internal affairs for this one.

I'm not saying they're guilty or innocent, but if Moby, would have had an investigation alongside the police/internal affairs, instead of making her own that was destined to fail, they would probably still be in trial right now.

She should of had a war on two fronts is what I'm trying to say. Her own war had a questionable leader.

Did they decide that the guy was flopping around on purpose, and that's how he got the fatal injury?

There's a lot of stories about the police intentionally making detainees get smashed up in the back of the paddy wagon by reckless driving, too many for them all to be false.

My opinion was this was a scam from the beginning. They decided to file charges just to pacify the angry mob, but they specifically filed charges they KNEW had little chance of being able to stick.

It wasn't a "police investigation" on this one. Mosby did an "independent investigation" and brought charges upon the officers (and grossly overcharged them...) within 2 weeks of this incident. She then lied about the investigation anyway, accusing the Sheriff and his agency of stifling her investigation. Too bad it came out that she never requested his agencies help anyway. Then her and her associates failed to follow simple rules for discovery of evidence in court.

NO investigation can be thorough and "complete" in a 2 week (or less, depending when she actually started it) span.

It was not a murder. With murder, there has to be intent. There has to be malice.

At VERY most, it would have been a "negligent homicide" on the vans driver, IF his actions were proven to be the direct cause of Gray's death. It couldn't be proven, because his ride wasn't a "rough ride." They showed the video they have in court and no one could argue that the van was driven maliciously.

In Baltimore City, there are cameras EVERYWHERE! I'm not exaggerating on that. Traffic, police, news, security cameras...You could walk down the street, pick your nose, and 3 cameras will have eyes on you. So, with all these cameras around, they couldn't see the van driving recklessly. Why? He wasn't. Even the other passenger in the van stated the ride was fine.

I'm not taking sides on this one but I really do feel she could have done a better job investigating. Poor attorney work was very obvious with her for this case in particular.

Corruption goes on all over the world not just the US. But I still am not convinced the police did anything wrong.

No way man!

Slavery, racism, colonization started with da white man! It's not like Africa is still practicing slavery two centuries after the white man ended it, not like Islam is burning down 5 continents, and not like there is an active hostage of crisis of tens of millions in North Korea.

No, it's those dirty white capitalists in America and those damn Israeli oppressors building walls to stop indiscriminate rockets flying into their neighborhoods!

She did a p*ss poor job "investigating," then whined and complained when her cases fell apart due to her lack of investigating and her overcharging. Her big "win," according to her, was when she stated no charges were thrown out by the judge. Too bad she didn't mention that, not only were several charges thrown out or mutually dropped, but her and her office got verbally ripped by the judge for the charges and lack of evidence, when he gave his dispositions. The main charges were not dropped, not due to a lack of evidence in her statement of probable cause, but due to the fact that with each charge, more and more issues were discovered that was caused by the prosecution.

If she had taken her time and not tried to verbally impose a "guilty" finding on the officers during a press conference to try and gain "peace" after the rioting had already stopped, then she may have been ok. She could have taken her time, done a fully thorough investigation, and then determine what, if any, charges should be brought. She would not have been crucified for her stupidity in that case.
