FOP President Claims Conflict Of Interest, Calls For Special Prosecutor In Freddie Gray Death

[SNIP]...Gene Ryan, president of the Baltimore City Fraternal Order of Police, called for Mosby to appoint a special prosecutor to the case due to her “many conflicts of interest.”...These conflicts include your personal and professional relationships with the Gray family attorney, William Murphy and the lead prosecutor’s connections with members of the local media. Based on several nationally televised interviews, these reporters are likely to be witnesses in any potential litigation regarding this incident,” Ryan said in an open letter to Mosby. “Most importantly, it is clear that your husband’s political future will be directly impacted, for better or worse, by the outcome of your investigation. In order to avoid any appearance of impropriety or a violation of the Professional Rules of Professional Responsibility, I ask that you appoint a Special Prosecutor to determine whether or not any charges should be filed.”

Nah, let the cops deal with the same prosecutor everybody else has to deal with.

Yeah something is going on there because I can’t possibly see how someone can be arrested that many times and still be walking the streets. I remember around 30 years ago an acquaintance of mine was busted for cocaine and he had just enough to be charged with intent to sell and besides it completely wiping him out financially he also did quite a stint in jail, 6 years I believe. And that was just ONE arrest. This guy on the other hand has TWENTY arrests. Are judges that lax in Baltimore? I don’t think so. There’s a possibility that he gave these cops bad info and they got their revenge on him, but who knows. It seems the state is unwilling to release the autopsy report to the public which may indicate these cops are innocent because if the autopsy indicated he had bruises and broken bones indicating he was beat up, that autopsy report would have been released in two seconds. What was interesting was this state attorney Marilyn Mosby basically saying today she was charging the cops for not making Gray wear his seat belt! In other words she has nothing on them and he did it to himself. It’s quite possible he could have been on drugs and was slamming his head against the van door in a fit of rage and did it at the same time the van stopped short increasing the force which broke his neck. What I want to know is where did this info come from that his “spine was severed” and his “larynx crushed”? If that was not the case, who spread that false rumor? What is the source? Why are these riots against police increasing? I just have a very high suspicion that the source of all this is coming from the very top.

I am trying to think out of the box. There are so many coincidences of the different relationships between the different people in this case either by marriage, work, or family that the whole case seems suspicious. Al Sharpton is very prominent in this case. How many people remember the Tawana Brawley case. Al Sharpton figured quite prominently in the media coverage of that case and it was a complete fabrication. The other possibility is that Freddie Gray was an informant and a gang member was ordered to kill him!
