Baltimore Police Won't Make Report on Freddie Gray's Death Public

Baltimore police said Wednesday that their internal report into the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old African-American man who died in police custody this month, wouldn't be made public.

Police Commissioner Anthony Batts had set a deadline of Friday to file the report with state investigators, leading to hopes among activists and Gray's family that more details of his death from a spinal injury would emerge. Investigators haven't said how Gray was injured.

Baltimore police Capt. Eric Kowalczyk said Wednesday night that the report would remain sealed to protect the integrity of the inquiry. "

That report ain't gonna stay secret for very long, and then you will have twice as much egg on your face.
And maybe an early retirement.

Just fuck them. I hope there is some legal way to get this into the hands of an independent prosecutor. It's obvious they're already trying to Ferguson it.

not following the program. It has to completely boil over so we can change the topic to be about thugs and broken windows instead of the real issues.
