Because he was walking around for a week with a severed spinal cord.

I was at a friend’s house once and answered the door when somebody knocked on it. The guy had his head all bandaged up from his brain surgery that morning.

Had ACDF (spinal fusion) had to wear HARD BRACE for 2 months or so. and I was lucky many have to wear it a lot longer.

Had to wear mine for five months, I had a rough time just getting out of bed in the morning, so how was guy out selling drugs and running from the cops?

Agreed. We do still live in a civilized country with laws and courts and judges.

Does this mean that the rioting punks will be returning the Air Jordans they looted?

No,I didn't think so.

Has this been confirmed by multiple sources or just this one?

Bingo, the truth is filtering out. Spinal surgery one week out and he is riding a bike. Where is the neck brace? Okay having had three neck surgeries, myself, i can say without the brace on I was not encouraged to do anything. The brace would be supportive. BUT, he was arrested and he was awaiting a trial in May for his last arrest. SO, was he arrested again for narcotics possession or delivery of cocaine or what. Having had neck surgery myself times 3 strong pain killers are prescribed - so in turn Gray was selling his prescription medication.

The Police did cause the lethal injury, Gray is held responsible for doing what he was not supposed to do - he basically threatened his own life and he caused his own death. Did the police know he had cervical neck surgery probably not. The issue of the spinal column separating is most likely Gray had a laminectomy of multiple vertebrae, (which is the removal of the the back portion of the vertebrae, there are only 7 vertebrae in the neck and the laminectomy usually removes 2 - 7). So his health was compromised and the police will be exonerated as he probably resisted arrest in that he would probably go to jail for a long time, as his 22 arrests in 7 years. This time he was going to go the State Pen.

I am just saying from the standpoint of having had 3 surgeries to the neck, I know how the neck is vulnerable. There are days yet I feel the pain yet no pain killers are taken. Turning the head is compromised, if I even lie down to watch TV with the head laying ear side on the pillow - the pressure builds and instant headache. I hope this helps some people understand how sensitive the neck area is and if the vertebrae were compromised to begin with, the person is at risk.

I am a white woman, but I try to be low key. I am a boss and I take extra care not to be a B!tch. I have plenty of Black friends over the years. I feel for the good people of Baltimore. 20 years ago I lived and worked in PG County. Loved going to Bawlmore. Loved the inner harbor, Camden Yards, the O’s and all the cool bars/ restaurants in that area. BUT! I am so grateful to God to be out West, I can’t even tell you!

First there was `Treyvon the Altar Boy’. Then we got the `Gentle Giant,’ and now it’s the `Thin-skulled Victim’.

Another Sharpton-Jackson `Cry Wolf’ production.
But like the musical `Chicago,’ only until the next MSM Li’l Miss Sunshine circus act comes along.

You’re adding in nonsense to the facts (something you do a lot)
