Doesn't look too good for the other prosecutions; Officer Porter's case was the strongest.

This won’t stop the DA from wasting millions more knowing cases in order to appease the riot prone masses.

Judge Williams had compelled Officer Porter to testify in the next two trials. The Court of Appeals of (the supreme court in Maryland), enjoined that order until they hold a full hearing. The next trial has been postponed.

Meanwhile, the State's Attorney went full retard asking Judge Williams to compel Porter to testify in all five following trials.

Officer Porter's appeal to the high court is based on his still being legal jeopardy not only at his retrial, but on possible Federal charges.

The prosecution banked on Porter being convicted. Without that, their trial strategy for the other five falls apart.

Mosley is the poster child for Affirmative Action employees everywhere. The only qualification she needed was her race.

“The information also could help shape legal strategies in the pending cases against the other five police officers charged in Gray’s April arrest and death.”

Indeed. 11-1 for acquittal means that the strategy should be to bail on all the show trials instead of wasting millions more persecuting people who have almost zero chance of being convicted. But we all know that’s not going to happen.
