Marilyn Mosby Blames Baltimore's Exploding Violence On Martin O'MALLEY
[BREITBART] In an interview with the City's ABC affiliate, Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby insisted that there is no connection between the recent social unrest and riots and the city's growing murder rate. Mosby also blamed Democratic Presidential candidate and former Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley
...former Democratic governor of Maryland and aspiring presidential candidate, known locally as The One-Man Economic Wrecking Crew. O'Malley was elected to his second term driven by union support and near-Stalinesque vote margins in Baltimore city (82%) and Prince George's County (88%). He presided over more than 40 tax or fee increases, including a rain tax and a flush tax...
 for setting the stage for this year's mounting violence.

During the taping of the local show "Square Off," Maryland Shock Trauma physician-in-chief Dr. Thomas Scalea said the worsening violence in the city "seems temporally related to the riots."

But Mosby completely disagreed with that assessment. "I think the violence was already going up. When you look at January, it was already like 28 murders," she said.

Mosby then went on to blame the city's violence troubles on former Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley, who later went on to become Governor of the state and is now a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president.

Mosby claimed that O'Malley's "zero tolerance" policies led to a climate of mistrust between residents and the police force and despite that O'Malley hasn't headed the city for eight years, those sour feelings have somehow fueled the city's violence this year.

"I think violence is cyclical, and I think we're seeing the effects of policies that have not worked," Mosby continued. "I mean, there's a number of old policies that we are seeing the result of. That distrust of communities, where communities don't want to step forward and say who killed a 3-year-old -- it's a direct result of these failed policies."
