tate's Attorney Marilyn Mosby's prosecution against the six officers charged in the death of Freddie Gray, is getting off to a shaky start. One of the main pillars of her case is that the officers made an illegal arrest because Gray was not carrying an illegal knife. But the Police task force determined that the knife does violate a Baltimore code.Mosby also badly botched her announcement of the charges in the case at her press conference, Friday afternoon. Of the six Baltimore PD officers who were charged, "two of them were charged under the wrong names, the wrong dates of birth, and wrong address," Sheriff Mike Lewis alleged on Hannity , Monday night.
"When Miss Mosby stood up in front of the world with her theatrics at her press conference last Friday she charged two of the wrong people. Now, when I say she charged two of the wrong people, I don't mean she charged two of the wrong officers. I mean she charged the wrong people. Innocent people. Of the six police officers that were charged, two of them were charged under the wrong names, the wrong dates of birth and the wrong addresses.
And because of that, reporters went to the wrong addresses of these innocent people, these private citizens and whose lives have now been invaded. They went to their homes, knocked on their doors. They harassed them. They went to their neighbors and attempted to get interviews. And it wasn't until these innocent people these private citizens contacted their local state's attorney's offices that this problem was rectified."
Lewis concluded that the embarrassing blunder was the "direct result of a hasty prosecutor who wants to charge these individuals."
Sounds like a hasty witch trial to appease the masses? Coverup to protect higher ups? Incompetence all the way down?
