One Mistake May Have Cost Marilyn Mosby A Conviction In The Freddie Gray Case

 

A key decision early on in the Freddie Gray case may have cost the prosecution a conviction.

After Gray’s death, Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby charged the six Baltimore cops involved, but many legal experts criticized her response as hasty. So far, two officers have been acquitted, including the van driver, who many believed was the best shot at getting a guilty verdict. Another officer’s trial was declared a mistrial and will be retried, which means Mosby’s office has four tough cases ahead of it.
