Prediction: They'll be found not guilty and more looting and riots against innocent 3rd parties will happen afterwards.

This is my prediction as well.
As more of these riots take place in the future, I wonder when in the the moment will occur that civilized American citizenry says "enough with the destruction" and we cross the proverbial rubicon....and these nasty youths get rounded up and placed in a camp like Japanese Americans (unjustly) were during WW2.
Now I'm sure some here will say this is too "extreme"...but to those people, what do you suggest? Should we just sit back and do nothing while these idiots burn our cities to the ground?
There seems to be an almost Pavlovian response by poor black communities to riot, loot and pillage on command for Al Sharpton. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but some of this hysteria seems almost orchestrated, or manufactured. There seems to be an agenda of pushing for the Federalization of Police departments. If that happens, I predict that shit is going to get bad. They are going to use fear, and race baiting to goad people into going for federalization and then we are gonna have the Police State times 911.

Wonder how the prosecutor plays this, especially since district attorneys need to keep a good relationship with the lice. Wonder if they try the bad apple prosecution. Maybe dig up dirt on all these characters, markedly distinguishing them from all the "good cops." Maybe they take the ringleader approach, laying most of it on Rice. Maybe they get the most insecure one to spill the beans on the other five. Perhaps something else. Crazy unfoldings.
Mosby belongs to a multi-generational cop family.
It's all just public relations, she had no choice, the pressure was on.
Her electoral victory in the Democratic primary, over former state's attorney Gregg Bernstein, was a surprise to many. After the victory, she set up a transition committee that included Baltimore attorney William H. "Billy" Murphy, who is representing Gray's family. Murphy was among Mosby's largest campaign contributors last year, according to The Baltimore Sun. He donated $5,000 to her campaign. The Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) also donated to her campaign, the Sun reported.
The local FOP lodge asked Mosby to appoint a special prosecutor because of her personal connection to Murphy and her marriage to Nick Mosby, the city councilman. In a letter, Gene Ryan, president of FOP Lodge 3, said he had "very deep concerns about the many conflicts of interest" in her office pursuing the case. "Most importantly, it is clear that your husband's political future will be directly impacted, for better or worse, by the outcome of your investigation."
Need a source on the broken larynx.
This is what I was referring to earlier. I'll be interested to see what the cops bail is set at. The maximum on the charge the one cop faces, second degree murder, only carries 30 yrs. in Maryland I believe.
All six police officers charged over the death of 25 year-old Freddie Gray have been released on bail, following a brief spell of detention at Baltimore’s central booking and intake centre.
Four officers, charged with felony crimes including second degree murder and manslaughter, each posted a $350,000 bail, while two others, charged with misdemeanours including second degree assault, posted $250,000. The bail amount and the officers’ ability to pay came in stark contrast to many of those accused of rioting during the unrest sparked by Gray’s death.
The Guardian revealed this week that 18-year-old Allen Bullock , charged with eight criminal counts including rioting and destruction of property after he handed himself in to authorities following his involvement in the unrest, was given $500,000 bail, which his family was unable to pay.
Bullock’s public defender Jennifer Davis told the Guardian it was “outrageous” that the teenager, who is facing his first charges as an adult, should be given a bail charge at least $150,000 more than the officers accused over Gray’s death.
Bullock’s parents told the Guardian on Thursday that they could not afford to pay the bail fee. The teenager is not due for another hearing until 28 May and was committed to jail, according to court records.
