Gag Order Imposed On Lawyers At Gray Trial

Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Barry Williams is imposing a gag order on prosecutors and defense attorneys in the Freddie Gray case.

"I do not want you discussing my orders with anyone...except your clients and your experts," Williams told lawyers at the end of today's proceedings.

A formal order will be filed tonight.

It is not clear which attorneys the judge may have been targeting in issuing the order, but it came after attorneys for Officer William Porter asked the judge to force the state to turn over further evidence the case.

The judge did that. Porter himself did grant an interview to the Washington Post last month, and is set to go on trial at the end of next month.
