there is a point where retrials become malicious prosecution.

“By gum we’ll find another jury to convict then.”

4 charges and hung on every one.

All I can say is that “The black racist DA bitch got bitchslapped by some sane people on the jury”.

Of course Mosby will try to get her pound of flesh from the first defendant, but he’s a black cop so she’s made a lot of new enemies in the Police Department and even in the black community.

Here’s why. Radio commentators say that the jurors had the worst job in the world in trying to determine a verdict because of possible retaliation against them if they voted for acquittal (Black Lives Matter but some Black Lives Matter Less” - Geo. Orwell updated).

NOT SAID is the fact that if they convicted the officer, the police wouldn’t show up in their neighborhoods to stop crime there, while if they acquitted them, they would NEED THE POLICE to stop the riots in their neighborhood.

A hung-jury is the best way to go, telling the DA ahole that she had a lousy prosecution case, while telling the police that they felt the officers were not guilty of the charges against them, thus not turning the police against them.

I’m sure that somebody in the DA’s office, or the court system, will leak the names of the jurors because you know that the DA will never investigate who leaked them. It’s a black solidarity thing, you know.

My Baltimore was once the home of Francis Scott Key, Fort McHenry and the “Star Spangled Banner”. Later it was nicknamed “Charm City”.

Under the black and Marxist democrats, Baltimore has now become known as “Baltimorgue” and “Harm City”.

They’ve come a long way since I was there, and it has all been downhill to the cesspool.

They said it was an accident. One of the bigger points they made was related to he accusation that the defendant refused Gray’s pleas for medical assistance. The defense medical expert said it would have been impossible for Gray to have said anything with his fatal injury.

Didn’t want to convict because they know he’s not guilty - but no juror is going to vote for acquittal - they don’t want their spouse murdered and their house torched by all those Black Lives Matter types seeking justice.....

Let me say this. The sorry “methed” up scum bag thug banged his head around in the paddy wagon and bruised his low IQ brain and it started bleeding and he died.
The trial of the police officers doing their jobs is an abomination to God.

The Black Lives Matter crowd thinks in the case of an all black jury, a hung jury means someone lynched the jurors.

Some people are just not emotionally or intellectually equipped to live in a democracy.

Change "some" to "Most".

I still think Freddy’s neck was broken before he got into the wagon. In the video, The guy can’t walk, He’s in agony.

Freddy ran from the cops and slammed his head into a curb when he slipped or got tackled.

The jury knows it.

As one FReeper astutely pointed out, in this and other cases, prosecutors over-charge to give the mob the impression they are taking a harsh stand against the cops - knowing full well no jury would convict them because the incidents don’t rise to the level of murder (or even manslaughter). The government says it tried, but the jury system failed; what else can they do? The payment to the family is the abomination.

That is the real problem for the prosecutor; this was supposed to be the easiest of the cases, and they couldn’t agree on ANY of the charges. To rational people, this would indicate that the media had hyped up a case much more than merited.

In the Rodney King beating trial, the jury was shown the full recording of the incident (in which King initially fought the cops) - and they promptly acquitted the cops involved. Low-information creatures, responding to the second half of the tape that had been broadcast for sensationalism, rioted for days...

Baltimore and Philadelphia, two cities to avoid.

Every time I drive past Baltimore I wonder what nice things there are to see. Then I imagine my face getting smashed because I’m white, and I hit the gas. So I have never gone there and I look very handsome with all my teeth.

In the last 20 years I have totally reversed on Baltimore and Philly. I used to go to Baltimore and never Philly. Now I won’t go to Baltimore, even in the daytime, but Philly has areas that are safe and fun for a night on the town.

The defense medical expert said the exact opposite. He said their is no way Gray would have been conscious with the injury he died from.
