HIS KNIFE WAS LEGAL! Check the internet and see.
No, the Baltimore city code bans that knife. It was not a switchblade, but it was spring-assisted, which city code bans. The convict was LEGALLY arrested, for cause. He was carrying a knife BANNED BY BALTIMORE CITY CODE. Maryland does NOT have a state-level knife law preemption law.
Knife was legal but false arrest is not second degree murder. I’m neutral cuz this happens every month.
