DAY 5: DEBUNKING MYTHS in the death of #FreddieGray
I covered how he really died, why he was really arrested, the empty prosecution of cops, etc.
TODAY: The media (and the fed gov't). Two failures of outside accountability. 1/

250 years since the Revolution and 10 years since Freddie Gray — Baltimore still has to march.
400+ cities marched.
Some for housing, some for wages, some for survival.
Some marched for those who couldn’t.

“One thing I heard from every group of residents we met with across the city is how much they love Baltimore.”
US Attorney General Loretta Lynch, 2017
Ten years after Freddie Gray’s death, I’m still holding the moments that showed that love.

A medical investigation found that #FreddieGray had sustained the injuries while in transport. The medical examiner's office concluded that his death could not be ruled an accident because officers failed to follow safety procedures "through acts of omission".

DAY 2: DEBUNKING MYTHS in the death of #FreddieGray for the ten year anniversary of his arrest and murder by police.
Yesterday I asked "How was he really killed?" (below)
Today I ask: Who was Freddie Gray? What did the media get wrong about him?
🧵

Kindly please share this thread. I have spent the better part of the last decade trying to get the *facts* out there about #FreddieGray while mainstream media continues to share the lies told by police and prosecutors.
So how was this never made public? How was there so much media coverage and four trials, but the truth was buried? I will cover some of that over the next week.
Pretty much everything the public was told about #FreddieGray and his death was a lie. 8/
There are two popular myths around how he was killed, and then there is the truth.
Former prosecutor Marilyn Mosby claimed #FreddieGray was killed while the van was in motion in a "rough ride." She indicted six cops based on that theory, with no convictions. 2/
It is the ten year anniversary of Freddie Gray's arrest and death in Baltimore.
As an author of a book on the case, I am going to *DEBUNK ONE MYTH EACH DAY* about what really happened.
Starting with: How was #FreddieGray actually killed? 1/
