Breaking news on Freddie Grey

[GiantSlayer]

Shortz gets his news from the same sources he gets his diet science studies from. Ooooooh, low blow. But seriously, don't believe everything you read on the internet.

 

[IronCore]

Ummm... It's on the Internet...I HAS to be true!!!

 

[shortz]

This was from about 5 sources, actually, not just this one.

So, they did release info that, the original form with this info on it was, in fact, a settlement from a case that the insurance was involved with. Apparently sources are saying they thought it was spinal injuries because of how the official paperwork was filled out. Much of the paperwork as filled out so that it couldn't be read, or Grey's handwriting was just so terrible that it was illegible. Turns out, when the official records were pulled, they were suing for being exposed to lead paint and were contributing their mental issues with that.

I have a pre existing spinal injury. If the cops take me down and sever my spine, it's still their fault. Freddy could have lived a full life with an injury.

They still should have strapped him in.

Don't run from the police and I think you will be ok.

It's been confirmed by court records that he had spinal surgery 1 week before this arrest. So, the police could be telling the truth after all, and, as usual, everyone flipped the **** out before having all the facts.

Yeah ah turns out this isn't true at all.

 

[MorganKane]

Yeah ah turns out this isn't true at all.

That was pretty clear from the beginning.
The Fourth estate has no listed source for the claims and everybody else who got the story is referring to that story.

Although I agree these things are always avoidable through compliance with police, some cops do seriously need to chill out and stop acting like every situation is life and death and that every citizen had an AK-47 strapped to their back. I mean some of these situations when there are 10 cops piled on top of a dude they can chill out a little, he's not gonna be able to do anything. Their is officer safety and then there is just over the top excessive force. And yes I know what the police go through and all of that as I was one about 8 years ago.

I do agree with that. I would love to see people stop jumping to conclusions with these cases the second a video or report is released though. In 90% or more of the situations, we find out more information later that the videos are taken out of context. We no longer have to process because the media and the public cast judgment the second the video hits the Internet.

I actually interviewed at a couple places to be an officer, but I did not make their cut. They have some very odd requirements in I would have to say, based on others that I bumped into during the interview process, their judgment is pretty off. I ended up in the medical field and never looked back. They couldn't pay me enough to be an officer after all that I know now

Don't be a felon or have smoked cigarettes in the past 6 months and that's pretty much all that's required, after you graduate the academy, if you didn't make the cut I'm concerned for you Schultz lol. The psych test is pretty much questions about how often you have diahrea so I really don't what went wrong for you.

Actually, the places that I interviewed stated that you could not have done ANY methamphetamines at all in your life time. When I was 17, I tried them, and this interview happened when I was 23. I was honest because I knew there would be a lie detector test and if you fail that, you will never work in law enforcement anywhere. They even said that you could have smoked pot as of 6 months ago and still qualified. lmao!!

This was actually at the Baltimore police dept too. You know what's even funnier? Everyoine was instructed to show up dressed for an interview and come in business atire. Me and two other guys were the only ones that showed up in suits. The rest were wearing cargo shorts, t shirts etc, and the captain said "I should kick all of you out of here for dressing like that, but since there are so many of you that didn't follow directions, I will let you stay". Yes, that gives you an idea of the kind of people they hire there. I got docked for doing acid 5+ years before this and never another drug, and then leading a good life since, following directions and actually acting like I wanted the job, but yet I was the one dismissed.
