Prisoner in van said Freddie Gray was ‘trying to injure himself,’ document says

[Wikdfury]

The well-being of the man in custody was the police's responsibility, just like it's an EMT's responsibility to get a patient to the hospital while doing everything they can to keep them stable and save their life if need be--period. There were things that didn't happen that aren't being made apparent to the public just yet that brought about those charges, and although it seems like they might be difficult to stick and bring about a conviction, I'd wager SOMEONE gets in trouble for SOMETHING, which I hope is more than a slap on the wrist and firings.

It's not just that they aren't making things public, they aren't releasing the radio recordings period. Still no one knows what's on those tapes which would really help piece together the day of the unlawful arrest. I will support details being kept from the public but the police have recordings and records for a reason and they need to be submitted into evidence so both sides can review them.

If true then it makes the burning down of a town, destroying it's economy for god knows how many years and making people even more poor then they already are even more pathetic. Good job looters and thugs!

BALTIMORE — A prisoner sharing a police transport van with Freddie Gray told investigators that he could hear Gray “banging against the walls” of the vehicle and believed that he “was intentionally trying to injure himself,” according to a police document obtained by The Washington Post.

The prisoner, who is currently in jail, was separated from Gray by a metal partition and could not see him. His statement is contained in an application for a search warrant, which is sealed by the court. The Post was given the document under the condition that the prisoner not be named because the person who provided it feared for the inmate’s safety.

The document, written by a Baltimore police investigator, offers the first glimpse of what might have happened inside the van. It is not clear whether any additional evidence backs up the prisoner’s version, which is just one piece of a much larger probe.

Gray was found unconscious in the wagon when it arrived at a police station on April 12. The 25-year-old had suffered a spinal injury and died a week later, touching off waves of protests across Baltimore, capped by a riot Monday in which hundreds of angry residents torched buildings, looted stores and pelted police officers with rocks.

Police have said they do not know whether Gray was injured during the arrest or during his 30-minute ride in the van. Local police and the U.S. Justice Department both have launched investigations of Gray’s death.

OP..I borrowed the above for a site called LemonSauced.com because some one has a few of these Fred threads up.

I'm sure it's copied & pasted not your own words any way.

If people are going to copy paste they should site The source. Looks like he did site his source though.

He also shared his own thoughts instead of just copying something into a thread.

Say whatever you want about the man himself, Mercedes, but you cannot deny that Dr. Ben Carson is probably one of the best pediatric neurosurgeons' of the past 2-3 decades...period, full stop.

Yes that bloke has been to my place many times for dinner.

Never bloody heard of him.

And just before what looks like scape goat charges on the officers, but we will see when the trial begins, the mayor said we are going to be transparent on all of this. Now they are taking lessons from the obama administration and sharing nothing. And it all came along quickly when the king of haters, the king of spurring racial violence, the man they call when they gotta have some hate on the evil white man moving forward. And our pal and racist Al Sharpton did a wonderful job handling the mayor and getting all of this moving forward.

Yup, that is why I put in the words quote and put it in red and included the source. I hate the way it does it on this site when you choose to copy and paste so I do it my own way.

Well just in case people think it was plagiarism which it certainly wasn't
let's just say it was much like flogging a dead horse.

You know those people that reckon they know every thing.

I call those types know all's.

I'm back! I was homeless for a year at 17 and a high school drop out. And a get in trouble street brawler.

Now I have a beautiful wife of 10 years everyone said I could never win over and a light year above my class and education. Several nice cars and a motorcycle. A nice home I dreamed about having. My own successful business. And this uneducated buffoon got promotions in my job over other far more educated people before I started my business because I compensated a lack of education for working harder and laughing off the people who said I couldn't do it or I was wrong. I was responsible for millions of dollars every year because I earned the trust and learned my trade through many night courses the corporation provided. Still never got my high school diploma though. Don't recommend it for others but for me it is a badge of honor I still made it without it.

Congrats for making some thing of your life.

The thing is not everyone are able to get out of their rut like you did.

It's very sad but it's true.

I agree not everyone can. But don't burn down a city, complain about the color of your skin, gender and where you are in America because you have no motivation to do something with your life. And certainly do not have our country spend 22 trillion dollars since 1960s with productive peoples money to try and get rid of poverty to do no good and not change the percentage of people who choose to do nothing with there lives. I never took one penny of government money during those damn hard times in my life and I would rather die a horrible and painful death before I ever do.

Let me just add one more thing. I would have never, ever started my business without my wife pushing me relentlessly for months to do it. So it is not just self motivation people in these inner cities need to get but the family structure also that has been OBLITERATED by a government that has made people dependent like a new born baby on a mother's titty.
