Ruling in Lt. Rice trial in Freddie Gray case scheduled for Monday
Kevin Rector, The Baltimore Sun

A judge will rule in Baltimore police Lt. Brian Rice's trial in the arrest and death of Freddie Gray on Monday, after hearing closing arguments from prosecutors and Rice's attorneys Thursday.

Rice, 42, is charged with involuntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and misconduct in office. He is the highest ranking officer of six charged in the case. He chose a bench trial, rather than a jury trial, making Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams the sole decider of his legal fate.

Freddie Gray case: Judge acquits Lt. Brian Rice of all charges
Kevin Rector, The Baltimore Sun

Prosecutors in Baltimore have failed for the fourth time to secure a conviction in the Freddie Gray case, with Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams acquitting Lt. Brian Rice of all charges related to Gray's arrest and death.

Williams cleared Rice, 42, of involuntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and misconduct in office in a downtown Baltimore courtroom on Monday morning. The judge had dismissed a second-degree assault charge at the trial's midpoint, and prosecutors dropped a second misconduct charge at the start.

Gotta admire Judge Williams....

“prosecutors have failed to meet their burden of proving the charges beyond a reasonable doubt, instead asking the court to rely on presumptions or assumptions something it cannot do. The court cannot be swayed by sympathy, prejudice or public opinion.”
