Marilyn Mosby Now Says Freddie Gray's Knife Isn't Important To Case Against 6 Baltimore Cops
2015-05-21
Whoops!
Next week it'll be the dead guy who isn't important to the case...
[DAILYCALLER] The office of Baltimore City state's attorney Marilyn Mosby has added a new wrinkle to the Freddie Gray case, alleging in a court filing that the 25-year-old was illegally locked away
Book 'im, Mahmoud!
 by Baltimore coppers even before they recovered a knife on his person.

In the motion, filed Monday, deputy state's attorney Michael Schatzow rebuts a May 8 motion for dismissal and recusal filed by attorneys for the six officers charged in the case. Schatzow calls the attorneys' claims that Mosby has numerous conflicts of interest "premature, frivolous, illogical."

Schatzow also addressed Gray's knife, which became a central part of the case when Mosby announced charges against the officers on May 1. Gray was arrested on April 12 and died a week later. His death was ruled a homicide, and he was determined to have sustained a broken neck while riding in the back of a police van. (RELATED: Baltimore Cops File Motion To Dismiss Freddie Gray Case)

#6  Mr. Schatzow's CV. Unlike his erstwhile boss, he's no lightweight.

#2  It would seem that the knife would matter. It was a spring-assisted knife as reported in the media. It may have been legal but intent is important also. A machette, kitchen knife, golf-club, ball-bat are most likely all legal but in the hands of a thug, they could be used illegally. Several years ago, a guy was shot and killed here. He had a cinder block over his head and was approaching police officers in a menacing manner.

This young State's attorney with a fairly newly minted law degree and little experience is a headline hunter. Look for her to be the darling of the left in the future--future AG material (sarc).

#1  Facts and legality don't seem to come into it, either.
