The Baltimore State’s Attorney’s Office says in a new filing that the arrest of Freddie Gray was illegal because he was already being detained without cause before officers found a knife on him.
The new statements are part of a detailed response to defense attorneys for the six Baltimore Police officers charged in connection with Gray’s death, who have asked that the charges be dismissed and that State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby recuse her office from the case.
Deputy State’s Attorney Michael Schatzow called the motion “premature,” “frivolous,” and “illogical,” and says it “bounces from one ridiculous allegation to another, like a pinball on a machine far past ‘TILT.’ ”
“Whether born of desperation, the desire for publicity, or a gross effort to taint the grand jury and potential petit jury pool, the motion is absurd,” Schatzow wrote in the filing, submitted Monday in Baltimore District Court.
Among many accusations made by the defense attorneys, they said Mosby’s office was wrong to say Gray’s arrest was unlawful because the knife found on him was legal under state law. City law, they argued, prohibits the type of knife Gray was carrying.
