(always wanted to do that..heh)
I feared this would be what happened there. The more I got to thinking about the neck injury, the more I could imagine exactly how that happened. It sounds like they were slamming the gas, and brake to 'brake-check' him up and down the back of the van, when one of those hard impacts came in just the wrong way...and snap. He died. (sigh)
He died for absolutely NOTHING. That is now official, it seems.

I hope these 6 are denied any protective measures in jail and later, prison, to live every day in general population ..to get their own 'nickle ride' or perhaps a whole train, every night.
Prosecutors here, in an unexpected announcement, said Friday they had probable cause to file homicide, manslaughter and misconduct charges against police officers in the death of Freddie Gray, who died after sustaining a spinal cord injury while in police custody.
In a news conference, the state’s attorney in Baltimore, Marilyn J. Mosby, described repeated mistreatment of Mr. Gray. Time and again, she said, officers abused him, arresting him without grounds and violating police procedure by putting him in handcuffs and leg restraints in the van without putting a seatbelt on him.

Ms. Mosby also said that the knife the police say Mr. Gray was carrying had not been a legitimate basis for his arrest. “The knife was not a switchblade, and it is lawful,” she said. She said the officers had “failed to establish probable cause for an arrest.”

I almost look forward to seeing how they establish the elements of that one...but it may just stick too!
