The need for additional restraints contradicts the claim you make that there was no resistance, but believe what you will.

Yes, yes, its all about the guy, who they still haven’t even offered a reason for the arrest, cops have been suspended and aren’t talking, and the police chief himself admits the officers violated policy with the suspect! But yes, the dead man is the one in the wrong, because you know, he was a thug, and deserved it.... What idiotic nonsense. How about you actually go read what the actual police chief has already admitted to regarding this incident.

Absolutely unbelievable how completely ignorant some folks on here are. The attempts at moral justification for this by some folks is insane. Everyone with a few neurons firing should be adamant that the truth be found out, instead some are twisting themselves into knots trying to make the “he deserved it” argument.

Just a little reading.... maybe you’ll learn something, but I highly doubt it. The police Chief is openly admitting they did not do what they should have done, multiple times, and yet you and others want to try to argue he got what he deserved... idiotic.

At a news conference Friday at police headquarters, Commissioner Anthony W. Batts said protesters have a right to speak out, but he urged them to remain nonviolent. He also provided an update on the investigation, saying that officers violated department policies while Gray was in their custody.

Police said Gray, who was dragged by officers to a transport wagon, should have gotten immediate medical attention. Batts said the department is investigating whether Gray’s injuries resulted from his arrest or a “rough ride” — in which police vans are driven erratically to harm unbuckled, handcuffed detainees. Batts said Gray could have sustained injuries during arrest and transport.

“We know he was not buckled in the transportation wagon as he should have been. No excuses from me. Period,” Batts said. “We know our police employees failed to get him medical attention in a timely manner multiple times.”
