Spexxvet - I see you still continue to cry foul. Please gift us with the evidence you have that illustrates criminal actions by these officers.

In three trials, Judge Williams, who is black and who successfully prosecuted cases of police misconduct for eight years in the justice department of the United States, questioned the assumption that the officers’ actions constituted criminal activity. He ruled each time that the criminal allegations were not supported by the evidence: in contrast to a shooting or stabbing, either of which would produce an obvious wound, Mr Gray's neck injury was internal and hidden from view, making it difficult for police to recognise. Like the case of Schrödinger’s ill-fated cat in the box, there is no telling exactly what happened to Mr Gray inside the police van, only speculative and “equally plausible scenarios.” And there is no proof that any of the officers meant to endanger or harm Mr Gray, nor that they knowingly denied him necessary medical care.
