BREAKING NEWS – Baltimore, Maryland – Prosecutors in Baltimore failed for the fourth time to secure a conviction in the Freddie Gray case, with Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams acquitting Lt. Brian Rice of all charges related to Gray’s arrest and death. Williams cleared Rice, 42, of involuntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and misconduct in office in a downtown Baltimore courtroom. The judge had dismissed a second-degree assault charge at the trial’s midpoint, and prosecutors dropped a second misconduct charge at the start. D.A. Marilyn Mosby stated that she plans on trying all of the officers again. She explained that it wouldn’t be “double jeopardy”, because during the new trials while the defendants are on the stand, she has no intentions of giving them the answers, so they could respond in the form of a question.
