A crooked Baltimore cop accidentally recorded himself planting drugs behind an abandoned building. The video footage released by the public defender’s office shows Officer Richard Pinheiro planting a bag of pills in a tin can and tossing it onto a trash pile.
One of the Baltimore police officers acquitted in the death of Freddie Gray is set to receive $127,000 in back pay.
Lt. Brian Rice, 42, was suspended without pay when he was charged with manslaughter in Gray’s death in May 2015.
It’s beginning to look like none of the Baltimore officers charged with Freddie Gray’s Death will be held accountable.
The police van driver, Ofc. Caesar Goodson, who allegedly took Gray on a “rough ride” to a police precinct last year was found not guilty on all charges today.
A Baltimore judge acquitted former Baltimore cop Edward Nero on all charges in the April 19, 2015 death of Freddie Gray.
The judge ruled that there were no “credible facts” to support Nero’s involvement in Gray’s death. The judge’s decision came as a relief to Nero’s supporters who believe he was a political pawn in the racially charged 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.
Freddie Gray’s family will settle with the city of Baltimore for $6.4 million, the NY Post reports.
Gray died as a result of neck and back injuries he suffered in the back of a police transport van in April.
A new cell phone video may show the moments after Baltimore resident Freddie Gray was fatally injured inside a police transport van.
The video was filmed on April 12 at the 2nd stop of Gray’s journey following his arrest at the corner of Mount and Baker Streets.
Shortly after the 2015 Billboard Awards wrapped on Sunday, rumors swirled that rap magnate Jay Z and his Burlesque singer wife Beyonce paid “tens of thousands” of dollars in bail money for misguided youths who were arrested during the Baltimore uprisings last month.
American power couple Beyonce Knowles-Carter and Shawn “Jay Z” Carter-Knowles were spotted leaving their NYC office building on Monday afternoon — one day after attending Prince‘s tribute concert to Freddie Gray in Baltimore. They wore inspirational t-shirts as they headed to their car. Beyonce’s shirt said “Never Forget to Say Thank You”, while Jay-Z’s simply read “Peace” in English, Hebrew and Arabic. Beyonce completed her outfit with a tight pair of ripped jeans and Ray ban sunglasses.
