In an amazing development that could be a game-changer for the case against cops who were charged in the death of Freddie Gray, Megyn Kelly reported on the discovery that Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby actually ordered the crackdown from police that led to the controversial death.
Watch the report below:

About three weeks before Freddie Gray was chased from a West Baltimore corner by three Baltimore police officers — the start of a fatal encounter — the office of prosecutor Marilyn Mosby asked police to target the intersection with “enhanced” drug enforcement efforts, court documents show.
“State’s Attorney Mosby asked me to look into community concerns regarding drug dealing in the area of North Ave and Mount St,” Joshua Rosenblatt, division chief of Mosby’s Crime Strategies Unit, wrote in a March 17 email to a Western District police commander.
The email was disclosed for the first time Tuesday in a motion filed in Baltimore Circuit Court by defense attorneys for the six officers being prosecuted in Gray’s arrest and death. The attorneys said Mosby’s involvement in the police initiative mean that she should be removed from the case.

“Mrs. Mosby herself is now an integral part of the story and as such is a central witness,” the defense attorneys argued. “This is a case where the witness and the prosecutor are one and the same.”
Mosby, through spokeswoman Rochelle Ritchie, said, “Consistent with our prosecutorial obligations, we will litigate this case in the courtroom and not in the media.” Mosby’s office received the motion Tuesday afternoon, Ritchie said.
B’More hon ping....
“Consistent with our prosecutorial obligations, we will litigate this case in the courtroom and not in the media.”
Wow, the gall of these race hustlers! That’s all THEY’ve been doing!
If I were a defense attorney, I’d probably want to keep Mosby. Unless her personnel purge when she took over was so effective the other attorneys are even dumber, but that may be hard to believe. But then again, this is Baltimore.
God bless the individual who leaked documents and emails to Kelly.

There are a lot of insiders within the gov who have woken up and realized that they are working for evil people. Pray more and more keep waking up.
As we all know, Leftists never apologize, nor do they recuse themselves from the bench - from the county lockup all the way up to SCOTUS.
As stated upthread, be thankful for the brave people who are getting the truth out...
The Watchman Ping List - FReepmail Old Sarge for details!
Ain’t Affirmative Action wonderful?
Pray America is waking
Ha ha—going for the Brady/Goodell defense!
Unfortunately not at the Hill.
Cowards. ALL of them. Congress included (referencing TPP).
On Fox’s Greta, brilliant attorney Ted Williams (former cop) was flabbergasted at this news.... its the beginning of the end——he swore the six cops charged will be exonerated.
Moreover, Mosby, the prosecutor (gag) is exposed as a complete nincompoop.....she filed a gag order in the wrong court.
It must be a frickin’ joke that Mosby actually got a law degree and passed the bar.
Not enough information made public yet to determine how Gray died, but regardless of that, Mosby overstepped her bounds in her initial approach to the case. She may have overreached in the charges against the cops and sabotaged her case from the get go.
Ah, but which courtroom Mosby?
There's a description for that and the initials are AA. Hint, it ain't anti-aircraft.
Classic Democrat behavior.
Pivot on a dime to shift blame from yourself to someone else.
They get away with it because they populate the media.
Back in the German Weimar Republic, any political party worth itself had to own a newspaper; the Nazi’s house organ was called the “Volkischer Beobachter” (People’s Observer). They bought it using money that was probably given to them by the army, although that is a surmise.
Today’s Democrat party doesn’t need to own a newspaper because it owns the entire MSM, with the partial exception of Fox News.
BTW, the Nazis bought he Volkischer Beobachter from the Thule Society, which was a German nationalist group that was heavily into the occult.
Well, it does seem strange that two cops "driving" the van were charged w/ "murder".
Did this nincompoop prosecutor ever consider how drivers commit murder while the victim is locked up in the back of the van?
It's doubtful whether six separate cops woke up that morning and plotted to commit "murder"..... to murder a man they had never even met.
You got that right.
Marilyn Mosby is working on a picture puzzle that has more than 2 pieces. She can’t keep the pieces straight.
First there was Amos ‘n Andy, (funny and lovable) fictional characters that some claim to be an offensive stereotype. Then there are real-life characters of color that make Amos and Andy look like Socrates and Aristotle.
