Van Driver Charged In Freddie Gray’s Death Heads To Trial Monday

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — The officer facing the most serious charges in Freddie Gray’s death heads to trial just days from now. It could be the pivotal case.

The van driver, Officer Caesar Goodson Jr., is facing more than 30 years behind bars for second-degree depraved heart murder.

A huge fight over what evidence the jury can hear will start on Monday. Unlike the last trial for Officer Edward Nero, this one will focus more on medical evidence and whether Freddie Gray pleaded for help inside the van.

Prosecutors have placed primary responsibility for Freddie Gray’s death on Officer Caesar Goodson Jr., who drove the transport van. Among the charges he faces: second-degree depraved heart murder, second-degree assault manslaughter and misconduct in office.

There wasa op order to seat belt perps BUT they never recieved the pw stating so,
Also the other perp who heard freddie boy hurting himself in the back of the van then changed his story after being released needs to be blasted on the stand as a flip flopper but something tells.me they are going to try and make a example of the.poor cop just to satisfy the Thugs.

Is it any wonder why fewer people want to become police officers?

Wouldn't it be funny if they convict a BLACK cop? I wonder how the black community will react to that decision...

They'll be grumbling that it's "racism" because he's black, and that they "let the white gig get away with it".

On a happier note, wonder if the Gray family has redistributed all that unearned cash around the 'hood yet? And how long before the sob stories about how they're broke now, and back on welfare?
