Prisoner in van said Freddie Gray was ‘trying to injure himself,’ document says

by Peter Hermann

BALTIMORE — A prisoner sharing a police transport van with Freddie Gray told investigators that he could hear Gray “banging against the walls” of the vehicle and believed that he “was intentionally trying to injure himself,” according to a police document obtained by The Washington Post.

The prisoner, who is currently in jail, was separated from Gray by a metal partition and could not see him. His statement is contained in an application for a search warrant, which is sealed by the court. The Post was given the document under the condition that the prisoner not be named because the person who provided it feared for the inmate’s safety.

The document, written by a Baltimore police investigator, offers the first glimpse of what might have happened inside the van. It is not clear whether any additional evidence backs up the prisoner’s version, which is just one piece of a much larger probe.

Is this perchance another replay of Ferguson, where persons who told the truth were targeted for violence because it flew in the face of the embraced meme?

UPDATE:

From WJLA.com:

Law enforcement sources say Freddie Gray suffered head injury in police transport van

by Brad Bell

BALTIMORE, Md. (WJLA) — An investigation into the death of Baltimore resident Freddie Gray has found no evidence that his fatal injuries were caused during the videotaped arrest and interaction with police officers, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

The sources spoke to ABC7 News after being briefed on the findings of a police report turned over to prosecutors on Thursday.

Sources said the medical examiner found Gray’s catastrophic injury was caused when he slammed into the back of the police transport van, apparently breaking his neck; a head injury he sustained matches a bolt in the back of the van.

Details surrounding exactly what caused Gray to slam into the back of the van was unclear. The officer driving the van has yet to give a statement to authorities. It’s also unclear whether Gray’s head injury was voluntary or was a result of some other action.

Ferguson out of control:

FERGUSON BLUE LIVES MATTERThe Ferguson Police Department is the last department that officers throughout this nation would want to belong to.

Despite the fact that Officer Darren Wilson was completely exonerated, two officers were shot on Thursday.

State, county police take over Ferguson protest security after shooting

by Greg Botelho and Catherine E. Shoichet

(CNN)  With tensions running high after the shooting of two officers in Ferguson, Missouri, state and county police took over protest security in the St. Louis suburb Thursday.

St. Louis County Police and the Missouri State Highway Patrol are assuming “command of the security detail regarding protests,” St. Louis County Police said, while Ferguson Police will remain responsible for “routine policing services” in the city.

Meaning: the city was “taken over” by outside forces.

Ferguson DecisionThe officers who remain are there because they cannot readily leave, and they can do nothing right — at this point — in the eyes of the nation.

Ferguson Cops SensitiveThey are caught between belief and physicality.

And they are caught up in the lie that apparently won’t stop.

No 1983 Action for Officer Wilson, per DOJ

Darren WilsonThe residents of Ferguson, Missouri won’t be be terribly pleased.

From the NYTimes.com:

Justice Dept. to Recommend No Civil Rights Charges in Ferguson Shooting

by Matt Apuzzo & Michael S. Schmidt

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has begun work on a legal memo recommending no civil rights charges against a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo., who killed an unarmed black teenager in August, law enforcement officials said.

That would close the politically charged case in the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown. The investigation by the F.B.I., which is complete, found no evidence to support civil rights charges against the officer, Darren Wilson, the officials said.

This therefore lends much credence to the chronology of events as portrayed by ex-Ferguson Police Department Officer Darren Wilson, who indicated that suspect Michael Brown did in fact attempt to disarm him and did in fact strike him, requiring the application of force which, in that case, was Officer Wilson’s sidearm.

Think about this: ex-Officer Wilson was forced to resign and he and his family subject to death threats locally and nationally, despite his actions being upheld in two separate legal venues: the Grand Jury failed to indict, and the US Department of Justice will fail to charge.

Officer Wilson’s actions were scrutinized for months by, literally, hundreds of persons, one sitting jury and the US DOJ.  He was exonerated in both instances and still his professional and likely his private life was destroyed.

For responding properly to a threat.

Don’t think for a moment there wasn’t great pressure on the DOJ to find something, anything on Darren Wilson, with said pressure coming directly from the Oval Office and the Racial Pimps, NYC and DC chapters.

On a professional and clinical level, justice was done.

On a personal level, one good man’s life was changed forever.

Again, Caucasoid shootings ignored

From the GatewayPundit.com:

Utah Police Officer Cleared in Shooting of Unarmed White Man – No Buildings Torched

by Jim Hoft

Utah policeman, Officer Bron Cruz, was cleared in the shooting death of unarmed white teen Dillon Taylor.

The confrontation was captured on camera.

Further:

The controversy over the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., has renewed interest in another recent police shooting.

Some of the details are similar: An unarmed young man. An officer who says the suspect refused to follow orders and behaved in a threatening manner. A decision not the charge the officer with any crime, despite an outcry from some in the community.

But there are also some key differences: Suspect Dillon Taylor, 20, was white. And in the Salt Lake City shooting, the officer wore a body camera that captured the entire incident.

Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill said in a statement this week that the officer was clearly justified in the shooting, despite the fact that the suspect was unarmed, KTSU reported.

Police were called to a convenience store on a report of a man with a gun, the station reported. Officers arrived to find Taylor nearby.

Footage from the officer’s body camera appears to show Officer Bron Cruz confronting the suspect, who ignores commands to stop and show his hands.

Officers said Taylor then quickly moved his hands up from his waistband, prompting Cruz to shoot him in the chest and stomach.

The suspect subsequently died. No weapons were found nearby.

Hands up.  Don’t shoot.  A meme for the stupid, the ignorant, the racists.

Pro-Wilson Ferguson witness murdered?

Ferguson Witness MurderedAnd was he a witness who stated Michael Brown was shot in the back with his hands in the air?

Perhaps he was not.

Hearken back to this post first, then continue:

From the NYDailyNews.com:

Man found dead amid Ferguson riots had bullet in head, accelerant on body: police

by Nina Golgowski

Among those appearing to grieve for Joshua was Dorian Johnson, who witnessed Brown’s death.

A nearby resident, previously speaking to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, has claimed that hours before the young man’s body was found they overheard four people armed with guns talking about looting and killing someone Monday night.

“I knew it was going to be true,” said Richard Taylor after hearing word of Joshua’s death. “When I got up this morning, I saw this.”

Why was DeAndre Joshua killed?  It seems his death has been completely ignored and shuttled aside.  The national media, what I term the American Media Maggots, seem not AMM - American Media Maggots 2to be interested in the slightest and have asked not one question.

They appear to have taken whatever the Ferguson PD and/or the St Louis County authorities have said as gospel.  Why?  They don’t trust these authorities with any information regarding Michael Brown.

DeAndre Joshua’s death is the only one to have occurred in Ferguson following Brown, but it has apparently been disregarded and rejected by the AMM.  Doesn’t that seem just a tad bit odd to you, given the recent history of Ferguson?  After all, the AMM and specifically the late Christopher Hitchens accused President George Bush 43 of being “unusually uncurious.”  J’accuse, AMM, Mr Hitchens?

A death in Ferguson?  A black man’s death in Ferguson, following that of Brown?  Uncovered by the AMM and not splayed across the headlines of papers and media sites around the nation and the world?  I repeat: a black man killed in Ferguson is now ignored, following the death Michael Brown?

Just how can that be?

I am wondering: is it because the incident doesn’t fit the meme of blacks being killed by Caucasoids?  It is because Joshua may have been killed since he was perceived by the “black community” as being a “snitch” and worthy of death?  Because he may have been killed by a black male and not a Caucasoid?

I don’t know.

But at least I’m courageous enough to even pose the question.

J’accuse, American Media Maggots.  Is there not one ounce of testosterone amongst all of you?
