Hung Jury for 1st Officer On Trial in Freddie Gray Case

Sandra Rose December 16, 2015

hung jury in Freddie Gray case

The jury is hung in the trial of Officer William Porter, one of six officers indicted in the death of Freddie Gray.

Gray, 25, died of complications due to a severed spine he suffered during a “rough ride” in the back of a police van in April.

Freddie Gray’s death sparked civil unrest and rioting that left 20 officers injured and millions of dollars in property damage in Baltimore.

The jury deliberated for three days before informing the judge they were hopelessly deadlocked.

The judge declared a mistrial and a hearing is scheduled for Wednesday to reschedule a trial.

All six officers were indicted in May on misconduct in office and reckless endangerment charges. Porter was the first officer to go on trial.

Porter is free on bail pending a retrial.

Sigh…………Get him in the retrial please!

I HOPE this doesn’t ruin the cases against the other officers.
Blaque Mahogany

Not surprised. She tried though…

You sat your ass up there and let that man die. Thought you were better than he was bc you have a badge. He was your fellow black man. I hope they get your dumb ass on the retrial. Ass wipe.

Where is the proof the officers knew Gray suffered a potentially life-threatening injury? This case has no legs.

Sorry, I’m not optimistic at all about this. Not even gonna get my hopes up.
They’re probably all gonna get off, Scot-free.
THE OLDER SISTAH

Porter testified that he was told by Freddie Gray that he needed medical attention and he (Porter) in turn notified the driver and his supervisor. I could be wrong, but I think the testimony of Porter is going to be used to bring the others down.

Hung jury is better than Not Guilty.

I expected a not guilty verdict.

There you go…and there will be a retrial.

Prayers for his Mom but I expected nothing less sadly
Blaque Mahogany

If a parent had their child in the back of a car, and the child suffered the same injuries as Freddie Gray, there would be no question of culpability. There is no way a “rough ride” justification would succeed. I do NOT understand the deference that is given to police officers. Specifically, when you take into account their lack of education and training. I. Do. Not. Understand
SummerBaby

I generally avoid these post because I’m too sensitive in them. This is so heartbreaking to me. RIP! ?? much love to his family. ?
Readytochokemothernatureonout

+1 my heart breaks for his Mom.
harley_quinn2.0

I still don’t know why they stopped the man. He looked like he was in pain prior to being put in the van.
Readytochokemothernatureonout

She is already suicidal….
SummerBaby

That’s what makes it even sadder.

Ling

Me too! I read a post online of a “black woman” saying that Neece from Being Mary Jane, should have not questioned the officer that pulled her over; that she should have done what he asked! Eeeeerrrrrhmmm……I’m sorry, but as a tax paying citizen, you have the right to ask why the hell you’re being pulled over…..and no, “loud music” is not a valid reason! This online lady had the nerve to equate this to Miss Bland’s situation, stating that if you do what the nice officer asks, then you’ll be okay. Gggggggrrrrrrr
1/8

Firstly, you’d have to prove the cops knew Gray’s neck was broken. Secondly, Gray was no longer in the custody of the attesting officers when his injury allegedly occurred. Thirdly, how would the cop driving the police van know Gray needed emergency medical attention?
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

You & me both, Summer. Every time I hear Freddie Gray’s name I get a lump in my throat. I can’t erase the image of him grimacing in pain while they had him handcuffed. And they did NOTHING to help him – they would have treated a rabid dog better. I can’t imagine the pain his family must be experiencing. …yall have a good one… nite.

Goodnight hun.

Girl say this! I know I KEEP bringing it up, but if yall could just see some of the people who show up to take the police test, smh…
Blaque Mahogany

I do see…trust me.
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

if he had been properly secured before the van was operated, it might had been apparent at the time he was being secured OR if he was not secured and sustained injuries because he was cuffed and unable to break his own fall or protect himself by using his hands during the operation of the van.
Unita Lucinda “Lucy” Freebush

Footage of another stop. He was always in their custody, or should have been. Did you watch any of this because all of this has already been told?

The arresting officers were not driving the van when Gray’s injury allegedly occurred, nor were they riding in the back of the van with Gray.

Mr. Gray was on a bicycle.

Thank you for that, I didn’t know. I guess one has to educate themselves on what’s exceptible in their city. I wonder if that would help though.
VV

I knew this would happen. Expect the same in the rest of the cases.
Stephanie

I may ruffle some feathers here, but I can’t understand if they are saying he had a “rough ride” then why didn’t the other passenger get hurt?
Stephanie

I know. I really think PC played a part. Mosby is a disappointment.
Hundreds of black men have been killed in Baltimore and she is sitting up in court watching the trial- get your butt back to the office and get justice for the other victims. No SA ever sits in trial like this.
Stephanie

Yep.
1/8

Excellent point! So, who was responsible for securing Gray in the van and how do we prove their negligence?

If we place that responsibility on the driver, how do we prove Gray’s death isn’t due to faulty equipment or Gray’s attempts to wriggle out of his restraints?

As someone with ties to law enforcement, I know all the angles.
SummerBaby

That was a really good episode last night. It touched on so many things.
SummerBaby

I know most cities have noise ordinances, but I also think that can be subjective. In the episode I interpreted it like he was using her music as an excuse like he could hear it but it was disturbing
Justlooking2SayIT

from what I read, that passenger was not in van the entire time.
Stephanie

Oh.. See, there is so many different reports out there.. thanks for replying. ?
Stephanie

Is anyone on Twitter?
Someone tell them it’s not the Freddie Gray trial. Freddie Gray is dead.

Not only is a driver’s loud music an ordinance violation in some jurisdictions, it can also be seen as a safety issue. That means in addition to being ticketed for a noise violation, you could be ticketed for driving while distracted, as well.
1/8

I wasn’t referring to Gray. I was responding to Ling’s comments about driving while listening to loud music.
Michelle

If the man can’t stand up and u have to drag him or lift him in and out of the van….than obviously he’s injured
Michelle

The video shows he was hardly able to stand while they were arresting him.

It’s a high-profile case. Expect some theatrics.

That end part… I’m probably not going to be popular here but Neecy was wrong. She was hostile from the jump. Does that justify everything that happened? No but I didn’t care for the way she was acting either.
YOUR man chose BSweet #ohwell

He later said she didn’t have a licenses plate to which she responded with something along the lines of ‘duh, it’s a new car’.
1/8

In some cases, the music doesn’t have to be loud enough to disturb others, just loud enough to be a potential distraction to the driver. That alone could be seen as probable cause for a traffic stop.
Justlooking2SayIT

Yes, you do, but start camera and call as soon as you see the lights. I got pulled over a month ago and the police officer a Hispanic Officer was aggressive I asked her why. I had all my things in order. She TRIED get LOUD. I almost started to whisper I was SO LIT. License and Tags. I got pulled over because of car in my garage that tags were dead, but they link it to all cars in your name. She got all nice towards the end.

Additionally they have a tool that scans your license without incidence.
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

But of course the defense put Freddie Gray on trial.
Justlooking2SayIT

Yeah, they are many laws that “ordinary” citizens don’t know about.

Last Friday, during Rush hour on 95N in Maryland. A police officer, gave chase to car that he tried to pull over. The car that had two passengers, crossed the median, in traffic heading the opposite direction and hit another call traveling southbound.

A passenger in each car was killed. The office went home on Friday. Somewhere two families are making arrangements for a funeral.

TOO DAMN aggressive.
THE OLDER SISTAH

“Footage of another stop. He was always in their custody, or should have been.”
————————————————————————-
You are right, he was always in their custody and because of this they were responsible for him. When this first unfolded I asked someone who knows firsthand what is supposed to be done and according to him, once a person asks for medical assistance they are supposed to receive medical assistance. They don’t have to know the extent of the injury either, just that he is requesting medical assistance… at least that’s how it was supposed to be done in NYPD.
1/8

Officer William Porter did not arrest Gray or load him into the police van. So…. ?
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

He didn’t get him the medical attention Gray requested.

So I guess you’re 100’s new handle.
Justlooking2SayIT

She was hostile, but she had the right to ask. It got progressively worse. Police are trained and must fall asleep, they need to know how to Descale all issues. Shot to kIll is not their job.

You liked not popular. HAHA just joking
Justlooking2SayIT

Now show me this law in your city and state. No officer knows what disruptive to you.
Justlooking2SayIT

Who is they?
1/8

Ok, but how does that make Officer William Porter guilty? He didn’t arrest Gray or load him into the police van. Furthermore, can anyone prove Porter knew Gray’s injury was life-threatening?
1/8

Lots of arrestees feign injury or go limp while being arrested.
YOUR man chose BSweet #ohwell

I agree she had the right to ask. I didn’t like the way she did it. Officers should de-escalate but there could be the argument that initally he did try by asking her what da prollem is?

Justlooking2SayIT

NOPE…cracking me up that GIF
Hmmm~?

This is what I’ve been saying since the start, is that it isn’t necessarily about race, it’s more of a flawed (but somewhat logical) mentality. It’s a mentality that most law enforcement personnel have. Because these people constantly deal with violent, no good, ghetto black people, they begin to develop a complex where they see these people as nothing more than animalistic criminals. It doesn’t matter if they’re black themselves either, because they’ll start to subconsciously disassociate themselves with the black identity, and begin to have the same mentality as above. We all know what the root cause is, but I’ll keep that to myself.
Hmmm~?

True. Like you said, this case has no legs. It’s very possible that they’ll get off scott-free.
Afiya

It’s a tough decision, I wouldn’t want to do it.
M1AM1DADE

People everywhere seem to want to get out of jury duty until a jury doesn’t give their biased opinion as a verdict. The jury deadlocked on all charges, they could not agree or compromise on reckless endangerment or reckless conduct. Therefore the judge declared a mistrial.
Social @sstivists creating chaos clearly do not understand the judicial process. There’s $6.4 million reasons a mistrial is better than an acquittal or a not guilty verdict. Let’s hope this inept over-reaching prosecutor has learned from her mistake, of conducting the weakest case first for which she has over charged and justice is served.

Message to #TeamRioters please plan accordingly burn #Baltimore down only a little at a time. Leave some for the other 5.

Yeah, the conditions are horrible. Women were sleeping with city workers to get there apartment repaired. This can’t be 2015 in America.

It’s people like that whom incite riots. They need NO voice.
1/8

Apparently, Baltimore officers are required to secure arrestees when transporting them. Prior to Gray’s arrest, Officer William Porter was sent an email informing him of this requirement.

Porter maintains that he didn’t strap Gray in, because few officers actually follow that rule, and because the van is such a tight space, he feared coming in close contact with Gray.

Regarding Porter’s refusal to call a medic, Porter said he thought Gray was faking.

Furthermore, Porter stated that Gray couldn’t give him a valid reason for his request for emergency assistance.

Here’s the problem folks… in order to get a conviction, the prosecution will have to prove the officers knew their actions could possibly result in injury or death.

It may be against department regulations, but if cops are routinely tossing prisoners into police vans without restraints, one could reasonably assume Gray wasn’t in danger.

As far as Gray’s request for a medic, like I said, arrestees fake injuries while in custody, all the time.
M1AM1DADE

Shame on me? Shame on them. Clearly there’s no respect for authority. Maybe you can break it down for me “Barney Style” their strategy and mere reasoning for rioting, looting and wreaking havoc in an already rundown dilapidated community?
THE OLDER SISTAH

I’ve been in and out, laughing at some of the posts but this shid here is not funny. I said in a earlier post that it was their job to get this man medical assistance. No if, and or maybes. The fact that this officer is black makes it worse. One human being helping another human being. Very simple but very hard for people to understand.

Officer William Porter deserves whatever comes his way. He watched his brother die, didn’t even try to help the poor man. Officer Porter needs to OVERstand that even with a badge he’s still a nigga to them. We only have a each other, its unfortunate that a lot of us still don’t get it.

Based on the timeline, the van made approximately 5 or 6 stops before arriving at the police station.

The driver called for back up at the fifth stop and that’s when Poter arrived; which explains why Porter thought it would be easier to simply proceed to the station .

If you review the timeline of events, you see why the jury couldn’t unanimously convict him. The van made five stops. Porter was called to the fifth stop. Officer Porter had very little contact with Gray.

“A rough ride”, huh? Isn’t the point of ‘roughing someone up’ to hurt them? And not that it matters, but I still haven’t heard what charge they picked him up on. He may not have even done anything to be put into custody.smh. This case should worry everyone, white or black, because when police can abuse their power and even take lives with no repercussions, they will.

I know you have heard the saying, if you’re not part of the solution than you are part of the problem. Rioting and burning is not going to solve the problem, it just creates more problems because there are neighborhoods that are yet to be rebuilt from when we thought that was the solution. We need to recognize that it’s not just about the “choices” we make but about the choices that are made for us also. Trust me, we did not ask for the drugs to be brought into our neighborhoods, nor did we ask for our black men to fill the jails. It’s a viscous cycle and we need to find ways to break it. I’m sorry for the rant but I get so angry sometimes at people who profess to be so smart and yet are so dumb.

But they witnessed his injuries and didn’t call for ambulance. At the very least that’s a dereliction of duty. They’re supposed to PROTECT and serve. That includes people they arrest.

Back in the day we used to refer to this as the “Black man’s law” because the cops would use it on the black man time and time again.

That means someone would not allow him to get off the hook.
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

That’s not the point clown.

The point is that the officer denied him medical attention because he thought Gray was faking his injuries.

This defendant didn’t have the training to make that determination so all he was required to do was get Gray medical attention and allow the doctors to make the diagnosis.
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

That’s not for the cops to determine.
Once in custody the prisoner is the responsibility of the state (cops).

To a certain degree it is a freewill choice, but in my opinion drugs are brought into our neighborhoods and our children are exposed to it far more than non black children. I don’t mean to make it about race but think about it. Drugs can be prevalent in black communities long before it spreads to other communities and then, and only then it becomes a drug epidemic. Economic conditions for a great many black people encourage either the using or selling of drugs. Please don’t think I am condoning or making excuses for the drug problem, because I’m not. I just think more could be done instead of allowing it to fester.

I don’t know I went to a few minority elementary schools and they beat in our heads that drugs were bad (red ribbon week). The city I grew up in is nowhere near being a bad city or a large city for that matter…so my experience is relative. I can’t see having drugs always in your face being a cause for wanting to hit it because marijuana was surely always in my face everyday growing up (my parents hit that sh*t everyday 4-5 times a day lol) and I have never smoked it. And not once did they ever tell me not to smoke it (at least not that I ever recall)…so I don’t know…

I’m sorry but I think we are talking about two different
things. When I refer to drugs, I’m not talking about marijuana. I’m talking about the drugs people can and do get hooked on with very little effort. It’s not a matter of seeing someone smoking a spliff because that doesn’t make you steal, kill or sell your soul to get high. I’ve known people who worked a 9-5 everyday get hooked on hard drugs and change their lives forever and I don’t
mean in a good way. I’ve seen kids who couldn’t get a legit part time job (because there were no jobs to be had) get a job easily selling drugs and making more money than they ever imagined. Don’t get me wrong. Not everyone in poor and or black communities gets hooked on drugs, THANK GOD. I just think drugs in the black communities has been ignored along with a great many other issues that result in an inferior quality of life for too many.

Oh I know you weren’t talking about marijuana I used marijuana as an example. Just because it’s in your face doesn’t mean you have to hit it is all I’m saying. And hitting it and selling it are two different things…NO ONE makes you do drugs you do it on your own free will….if there were no drug users there would be no sellers simple as that. You blamed someone bringing drugs into a neighborhood as to why Black folks did drugs and that is not the reason. The reason is people WANTED to do drugs…for whatever reason (sick, mental illness, weak minded, etc etc). If you want to offer an excuse on why Black folks did drugs then give an authentic reason…not because someone put it in their neighborhood…

So just because he’s been arrested over 20 times he deserved to die? Then you need to be advocating for keeping criminals locked up…

I would hate to be some of yall people when it’s YOUR turn to have some bad things happen to you at the hands of the police, when you did not deserve it. Then again, seeing as how yall never have any sympathy for others, or even think the police can do any wrong, I guess when the police jack you up for whatever reason, YOU must of deserved it. Tuh.

I figured they find away to stall this bullshyt. A mistrial my ass. Those police wasn’t on trial. Freddie Gray’s past was on trial. The jury was more concerned with whether he deserved to die instead of the police actually murdering someone.

If we all will look at the record of cops “indicted” Vs “CONVICTED”….I AM NOT SHOCKED AT ALL!!!!
Wuts got Petty Davis Eyes..

I have one question… since when has the police been given “Judge Dred” authority to be judge, jury and executioner? There is a process that they must follow dealing with each situation they encounter and none of them states that “it is okay to kill and unarmed man whose running away or subdued if…” No where in the rules start that way.. The situation is IF they convict one..that set precedent for them to convict them all..We have no idea how many incidents that are similar to the ones that were actually taped. This will cause the states money in law suits, and the good ole boy system to crumble.

He said his money is his and his wife has her’s they don’t ask what each other do with their money as long as bills are paid. I said do you think it would be strange for me to just show up at your house without at least meeting your wife. He said no. I said it would be awkward for me. So this morning I get this… I said yayee cuz I didn’t want him to think I would feel weird meeting her.

It’s a shame that this type of situation has become the norm now. It no longer shocks anyone that a cop can kill someone, get off, of get a measly slap on the writs.
One thing I was always be disgusted with is the lack of care when it comes to human life. I don’t give a fug if this boy has a record, he did not deserve to die. And who in the fug left these bast*** in charge to decide whether someone lives or dies? Folks can be so nasty when it’s others, but boil out for sympathy when it’s their own.

Eh I’ll agree to a certain extent but that’s where having sense comes into play and not being weak minded. A lot of other variables come into play too such as age, gender, and what you’ve seen and experienced. I never have been influenced by peer pressure could care less what anyone thought of me. And for damn sure wasn’t doing drugs as I seen the effects of it up close and personal in my own family members (crack).

But we can go back and forth all day long blaming somebody else. All I’m saying is Black folks need to quit pointing the finger at someone else and take responsibility for what they have done. Once again NO ONE made you hit it whether it was brought into your neighborhood or not…

Well, the State Attorney, Marilyn Mosby, has dismissed your theory, because she believes Gray’s injuries occurred AFTER he was dragged into the police van. So, that means that video has no real evidentiary value.

A witness said he saw an officer with his knee on Gray’s neck. That same tipster said the cops had Gray folded up like a piece of “origami.” There is video of Mr. Gray being dragged into the police van with his legs appearing to be limp. Do you really think Mosby ignored those findings, because she thinks she can prove the police are responsible for Gray’s injuries, when none of them were present? Mosby is paying you folks like a fiddle. She set this case up for failure.

No, it’s the reporters covering it.
http://batman-news.com Roderick2011

So you’re saying that the defense didn’t put Gray on trial?

I saw the use of ‘Freddie Gray’ and “Freddie Gray Trial” hashtags by reporters as if Freddie Fray was the one on trial. I expect better from the media.

Of course the defense put Gray on trial– I don’t know why you need me to confirm this.
Stephanie

The media!
Go on Twitter and use the search box and enter ‘ #FreddieGrayTrial “FreddyGratTrial” while you at it- and keep scrolling, you’ll see. I was searching for just “Freddie Gray” and was angry the media was using the hashtag. Rather people agree or disagree with the officers being charged is one thing, but for media to use to the hashtag is messed up- Freddie Gray is not on trial- FreddieGray is dead. I saw a few users call them out- it’s not enough.
