BALTIMORE (WJZ) — A judge sentenced two more former Baltimore City Police detectives to seven years in prison each for robbing citizens and stealing overtime as part of the corrupt Gun Trace Task Force.
Evodio Hendrix committed five robberies and stole tens of thousands of dollars. His father told WJZ Investigator Mike Hellgren after the proceeding that his son “just made a mistake.” He said the ordeal had been “pretty tough” on his family.
Hendrix apologized to the judge.
“I was wrong…I accept responsibility,” he said. “I ask the victims of my crimes to forgive me because I’m truly sorry for my actions.”
Maurice Ward cried in court and said he was sorry. He said he wished he would have come forward to authorities before his arrest and charges.
“A lot of these things probably wouldn’t have happened,” Ward told the judge.
Both men have testified against fellow officers and cooperated in the ongoing investigation.

ReplyDeleteBe really surprised at what you will find
Power goes to people's heads
A tough guy CRIED on the stand??
ReplyDeleteHe was SUCH a bad-ass when he wore a gun and a badge and had 10 OTHER bad-asses to help him beat or kill whomever had the audacity to challenge his "authority" to do just that.
Wait til he gets to prison and talks to a few of the people he robbed and beat.
The crying hasn't even BEGUN yet.....
What cops KNOWS that this kind of thing ALWAYS comes out, sooner or later, and STILL DOES IT????
An arrogant one, one imbued with the "WE ARE THE POLICE!!" mantra of "we can, and will kill you, rob you, and beat you to death if you resist". The best part?? There is NOTHING you can do about it. Call the police??? LOL!
For those who dispute that, explain the 6 BLLION DOLLARS the police ROBBED "we, the people" of LAST YEAR ALONE without charges, trial, or conviction. SIX BILLION!! I'll wait for your rationalization, I mean, explanation.
Keep cheering.
