Leaked Text Messages Demonstrate Mosby's Bad Faith

Leaked text messages between one of Marilyn Mosby’s deputies and the lead investigator in the Freddie Gray case raise new concerns about Mosby’s honesty and good faith in deciding to charge six officers with Gray’s death. The leaked messages reportedly suggest that the prosecutors planned to charge the officers regardless of what the evidence showed.
The cover of magazines oftentimes reveal their content without having to actually turn a page.
This is Baltimore, so the odds of the Democratic prosecutors being punished is about zero...

#2  The underlying problem with civil remedy as I understand it is that the taxpayers will be the bearer of any award to the officers. Unless Mosby is disbarred it is merely a messy PR problem for her next political campaign. Oh, as an aside, those taxpayers are outnumbered by those who will vote for her no matter what.

#1  Brady violations (prosecutorial misconduct) most likely occurred during this set of trials. Certainly incompetence was the rue of the day as well...

Overcharging to the point that PC does not meet the elements of the criminal charge sought equates false arrest, suppressing exculpatory evidence that indicates their evidence...this is not over...maybe the officers will get justice via civil remedy, because the DoJ certainly won't look for civil rights violations against the DA's office.
