BALTIMORE: THINGS GO FROM BAD TO WORSE FOR MARILYN MOSBY: Mistakes like this aren’t unheard of in litigation, but they smack of amateurism. “Marilyn Mosby, the prosecutor in the Freddie Gray case, continues to make news for all the wrong reasons. First, her motion for a gag order in the case was dismissed because she filed it in the wrong court. . . . Second, it has been revealed that Mosby directed Baltimore police to ramp up narcotics patrols with increased ‘targeting’ at an intersection near where Freddie Gray was arrested. Mosby’s directive does not, of course, bear on the question of whether police officers committed crimes in their treatment of Gray after he was arrested. An order to ramp up patrols isn’t an invitation to injure people. However, Mosby’s directive seems to undercut what’s left of the criminal charges she filed in connection with Gray’s arrest, as opposed to his treatment thereafter.”
