This is on Drudge with a siren.

It looks like “Freddie Gray was a victim of police brutality” might be right up there “Hands up, don’t shoot”.

[T]he second prisoner told investigators that Gray was "was still moving around, that he was kicking and making noises" up until the van arrived at the police station.

So what happened at the police station -- that severed Gray's spine?

If he got bounced around in a metal cage in a van, they are not off the hook.

Kinda figured that since the black leadership has been trying to keep the details from the public. They would prefer that everyone thinks the worst, stage riots and then Obama will come save the day with truckloads of money.

Freddie was trying for a “police brutality” lawsuit and killed himself. Let’s see CNN, MSNBC, etc., report that. (Crickets)

Just like with Ferguson, the truth won’t matter.

The van has metal inside, you smack yourself enough times against metal and guess what, your gonna get a neck injury. I bet the toxicology results will show Gray was high on meth or some other drug.

"a head injury he sustained matches a bolt in the back of the van."

In conjunction with a fellow detainee inside the van who stated that Gray was banging around in the van, this is all I need to hear to close this case. Done. Over. Next.

...

If that’s true, then he was faking a neck injury when he was arrested. Perhaps he was trying to give himself a real neck injury while he was in the van to frame the cops, but overdid it.

The van's GPS record will tell us more... once someone sues to get those released.

What does it matter if he did it to himself or not, they won’t believe it and the Obummer cabal won’t stop trying to start a nationwide race riot so he can declare martial law. Next week will be another case no doubt.

Yes, was the driver intentionally giving him a rough ride to knock him around some or is the story that another prisoner gave about hearing Gray intentionally trying to hurt himself true?

'Sources said the medical examiner found Gray's catastrophic injury was caused when he slammed into the back of the police transport van, apparently breaking his neck; a head injury he sustained matches a bolt in the back of the van.'

Ouch. Another payout coming. Baltimore's nickel rides are pretty expensive.

His Tox report is gonna be key..I bet he was high on a bunch of different stuff, you don’t go smacking yourself against metal if your in your right mind, unless he was mentally ill

Considering the autopsy results have NOT been released yet, your statement is kneejerk speculation.

The only award his family is going to get from this is Freddie’s Darwin Award.
