But he was driving. I think the supervisor should face more serious charges: he was the boss, after all. And involuntary manslaughter is mild, but voluntary is harder to prove, and they can always claim they just wanted to scare Mr Gray, not kill him.

Baltimore PD may have a new day dawning whether it wants it or not. The murders in blue need to be swept into the gutter.

Now that we got their names, has anyone been able to find their home addresses? We need to stage day and night protests outside their homes until they do the right thing- confess their crimes, plead guilty, and accept the maximum penalty, whatever that may be. They need to be made miserable, these despicable pieces of murderous flotsam!
