During the foot chase, did Freddie swallow the drugs he was selling?

The guy is a druggie and a dealer. That stuff stays in your system a month or more. It was pretty much a no brainer that they were going to find it in his system.... Yet they put him in a paddy wagon and he came out with a broken neck... and this guy on Hannity is trying to tell us the guy did it to himself.

The man could have had a dozen drugs in his system and they wouldnt care.

Makes sense..he was a drug dealer, so one could make the simple assumption he was an addict too..probably swallowed the heroin as he was running away from the cops..he couldn’t throw it away since the cops would see that and pick it up so he swallowed it. God Bless this officer who is talking to Sean, God Bless his bravery

One thing I haven’t seen mentioned much is that some people captured by the police will let their bodies go limp just to make it more difficult for the police to arrest them. It is a form of not cooperating with the police.

Freddie Gray may have been limp when the police were carrying him off. I don’t know for sure. But the police may have just thought that he was not cooperating. I can understand that.

That is one reason I couldn’t convict any of these officers. I just don’t believe any of them had any intent to harm Gray.

At this point, you could put a machine gun in his hands and it wouldn’t matter.

Oh great, this is the new phrase that Hannity is going to ask every person in the world for the next year?

If he was publicly intoxicated, do the unlawful imprisonment charges go out the window?

That seems absurd. If the police had spotted a hand-to-hand, wouldn’t the police have made that claim immediately, rather than call his knife a switchblade, and blame his arrest on that?

If he had ingested a large dose of heroin, he would have passed out.

Not to mention that he was hogtied, by his hands and feet, on his belly on the floor of the van, head towards the front, in a space about 2 feet wide between the bench and the divider.

That interview was beyond comical. No rational person would buy that ridiculous nonsense.

Lucky Sean is also rumored to have construction skills.

Not trying to piss in anybody’s cornflakes, but Hannity is a tool of the RNC.

He was pushing Romney last election.

There are ways of breaking one’s own neck; jumping off a building, hanging yourself etc..

But it’s highly unlikely that a handcuffed young man could accomplish it. With him in the back of a vehicle with his hands handcuffed behind him, it’s much more likely it was the starting and stopping and turning. Remember he can’t hold on...

I receive anonymous “sources” with skepticism. I regard anonymous sources talking to Hannity or the NY Times as probable liars. Local news anonymous sources I reserve judgment on - they could have good reason to want to be anonymous.

Hannity and the Times have about as much credibility as their anonymous sources. Same as it ever was.

According to the prosecutor, that is no reason to arrest him.

The Prosecutor’s announcement in Baltimore about bringing charges against six officers there was nothing more than a political campaign speech, it certainly was not a prosecutorial statement.

This prosecutor should not even be prosecuting the case. She should have recused herself because she is a close personal friend to the young man who died family’s attorney. That attorney has been her mentor and was a large campaign contributor to her political campaign to become prosecutor. With a conflict of interest like that, there is no way she should be prosecuting the case.

As to her prosecution, she has charged those officers with 2nd degree, willful murder. It sounds like she is going for the highest charge she can possibly think of without any credence given to the actual facts on the ground. Again, it sounds like she is doing so to make a political statement and try and use that to calm things in Baltimore. But it will not work. It will only end up making things worse.

Given what happened, I do not believe there is any hope or chance of sustaining, or winning any kind of verdict on such a charge. If the arrest indeed was not legal (and that is certainly not established), charge them with illegal arrest and detention. If they did not seat belt the young man in the paddy wagon, charge them with violating their own safety protocol. But to take those two things and turn it into a willful murder of this young man is simply amazing in its over reach.

Finally, any good attorney and prosecutor would not rile up the public and seek to bias them as this prosecutor has done. That too ends up backfiring when the house of cards ultimately comes down.

I believe, like with the Trayvon Martin case in Florida, and the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, MO, huge, and unprovable over-reaches like this end up in having the people they are trying to trump up the charges on being exonerated and found innocent of those charges.. As in those cases, this attempt will end up not serving justice or the interests of Baltimore. Sadly, predictably, it will only make matters worse when the charges cannot be supported and the individuals are found innocent.

It is sad to see the U.S. justice system being politically corrupted right before our eyes like this.
