Baltimore Police Officer Found Not Guilty in Freddie Gray Death
ABC News ^ | May 23, 2016 | Mariam Khan

A judge found Baltimore police officer Edward Nero not guilty today on all four charges for his role in the events leading up to the death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray.

Nero, 30, had been charged with second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and two counts of misconduct in office, all stemming from his actions during the initial stop and arrest of Gray, who suffered a catastrophic spinal injury while in police custody. Gray died one week later on April 19, 2015, and his death sparked days of violent protests in Baltimore.

One of the owners of CVS is Soros so it wouldn’t hurt my feelings at all to see it shut down again. These people just never seem to learn.

“So far, the city has provided more than $500,000 in grants and loans to some 60 businesses damaged during the unrest. The state of Maryland has provided nearly $1 million more in no-interest loans. Cole estimates that about 90 percent of the stores are back up and running, but he admits some are struggling.”

Excuse me, you’re trying to decide who to ‘root for’ while the ferals are trying to destroy the lives of six law enforcement officers and indeed the entire justice system?

I’ve always been of the opinion if I’m innocent I go with a judge. Humans tend to reach a harmonic Zen of stupidity in groups of 12...

On an aside, happened to be channel surfing a couple days ago and was surprised to see Moo on The Learning Channel. The little gay host from “Say Yes to the Dress” took gowns to some black school for “Say Yes to the Prom”, aka more freebies for the gimmedat crowd. #BLM! Guess the show couldn’t have pulled a school from a hat because Moo wouldn’t have had the time for girls of any other race.

Thank you. No doubt the defense was getting desperate. So far the locals don’t seem to be throwing a fit yet. (But, it’s only been an hour). Apparently, based on the ruling - Nero can be called on to testify for/against the other officers in the upcoming trials. So, although he is free of all charges - his nightmare is not over yet. He will be spending more time in the courtroom as a witness. What a mess.

Next thing you know DA Mosby will be announcing she is stepping down to go into private practice forming the new firm of Mosby and Nifong,P.C. specializing in the growing field of race card law. Lacrosse anyone?
