Police Send Freddie Gray Report To State Attorney

The Baltimore Police Department completed their report on Freddie Gray a day early and sent it to the Baltimore’s chief prosecutor, Marilyn Mosby.

“We have been briefed regularly throughout their process while simultaneously conducting our own independent investigation into the death of Freddie Gray. While we have and will continue to leverage the information received by the Department, we are not relying solely on their findings but rather the facts that we have gathered and verified,” Mosby said in a statement. “We ask for the public to remain patient and peaceful and to trust the process of the justice system.”

The report comes on the heels of a Washington Post piece saying that Gray injured himself while in the custody of the BPD.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters on Thursday she is not ready to accept the news that 25 year-old Freddie Gray may have fatally injured himself, when the police detained him earlier in the month.

“I read the paper this morning and I saw that and I thought, ‘Is this news or is this hearsay. What is this, because I don’t know what that is,’” she said. “But to your bigger and broader question, as to what will happen, a report will come forward and that these reports are not always made public immediately but I do think, when it is made public, the public will have a response and it will be a peaceful one.”

State Senator Catherine Pugh told The Daily Caller on Wednesday night that the results of the report of the investigation will not be revealed to the public.

“That is not going to happen—that the information is going to be turned over to the state’s attorney’s office but what I think what we need to do in this country is change the law so whenever somebody dies in the custody of police officers, that it spurs an immediate federal investigation and a state investigation,” she said.

When asked about her concern if the results of the investigation or even potential court case does not meet the expectations of protesters may re-escalate problems, she responded:

“I think that presents a problem…I want to maintain the peace, but I think it presents a problem in terms of the process—not necessarily in terms of what happens in the streets, because too many people viewed what they have seen on television.

“And when you see somebody, whether they were walking or running around, but you saw them on their own two feet. Then, you saw them dragged and then you them laid up in the hospital. Something is wrong with that,” Pugh said.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.
