Let's end this mess right now.
WAS THE VAN Freddy Gray was placed in by police PADDED to protect those arrested?
The officer that spoke on national television about the investigation did not allow any information of value to be known by the public and he clearly stated, "We are not going to discuss the inside of the van because it could cause conjecture."
It is not conjecture, no protective lining of vans where 'the arrested' are placed means there are built in excuses for police that kill.
At no point in time should a prisoner be in danger for his or her life when arrested. When the police have custody that means there is value placed on their lives no matter what it takes.
Human rights are civil rights. If a person is dead that is a violation of human rights. If dead people are allowed to be overlooked then Due Process is gone and deadly force becomes the law and not the law itself.
