Officers in Freddie Gray Case Suing Marilyn Mosby
2016-07-30
[MSN] Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby may have dropped criminal charges against the remaining officers in the Freddie Gray trial, but she remains entrenched in a legal battle in civil court.

Five of the six officers charged for the death of Gray are suing Mosby, as well as Maj. Samuel Cogen of the Baltimore Sheriff's Office, in civil court for a gamut of causes.

In several lawsuits filed earlier this year, Officers William Porter, Edward Nero, Garrett Miller, Lt. Brian Rice, and Sgt. Alicia White alleged defamation, false arrest, false imprisonment, and violation of constitutional rights, among others.
...lost wages, legal costs, hiding exculpatory evidence...
The complaint filed by Porter and White stated that Mosby "made statements for purposes of quelling the riots rather than prosecuting coppers who had committed a crime," and that Mosby "exceeded her authority" and "brought charges against coppers that were wholly unsupported by evidence and probably cause."

"These officers were humiliated," attorney Michael Glass, who represents Porter and White, he told NBC News. "Our position is that the charges were brought for a reason other than prosecuting criminal conduct. There was a political motivation and the charges were not supported by evidence."
