BaltimoreSun: Two officers charged in the death of Freddie Gray are suing Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby for defamation and invasion of privacy.

Sgt. Alicia White and Officer William Porter, who are facing charges of involuntary manslaughter in the 25-year-old’s death last April, filed the lawsuit against Mosby, Baltimore sheriff’s office Maj. Sam Cogen and the state of Maryland on May 2, according to Baltimore Circuit Court records made public Wednesday.

The officers claim that Mosby and Cogen knew the statement of charges filed against the officers and other statements made by Mosby at a May 1, 2015, news conference announcing the charges “were false.”

“These among other statements were made not for the purpose of prosecuting crimes that had allegedly been committed by White and Porter, but rather for purposes of quelling the riots in Baltimore,” the suit alleges.  MORE

  1. “I hope the officers win a big settlement and that Mosby’s incompetence and dishonesty is fully exposed.”

    And the taxpayers will take it up the ass, again.

    But then, they DID elect her …

    izlamo delenda est …

  2. pageoturner,
    “and that Mosby’s incompetence and dishonesty is fully exposed.”

    Too late, it’s already fully exposed. . . and some of us wish she would put her clothes back on.

  3. Remember they settled without prosecution with the Grey family for $6,400,000 wrongfull death. The family bought a 500K lamborghini V12 Monster within weeks.

    How is Mosby gonna explain that when all cops will be acquitted. She should be …….

  4. It would be such poetic justice if, one night Mosby is strolling through her beloved Animal Kingdom and could really use a cop to protect her from one of her beloved ObamaSons doing what ObamaSons do… and it turns out the police officers within earshot know it’s just not worth it to get involved anymore.

  5. According to a lot of lawyer commenters over at Legal Insurrection, their chances of succeding in this lawsuit are slim to none. It is nearly impossible to get judgements agains State’s Attorneys. However, their attornies must have seem some upside, beside lining their own pockets. I would love to see this bitch sued personally, so that any settlement comes out of her corrupt pockets.

  6. I talked to some Baltimore cops.
    Between her idiocy on the
    overcharging and liberal judges
    letting the bad guys go; they
    are disgusted, demoralized
    and afraid to do real policing.
    Result? The quote from that toad
    Al Gore when he was caught
    fundraising from the WH describes
    the law in Baltimore.
    “No controlling legal authority.”
    East Baltimore is crawling with
    homeless druggies, dealers and hookers
    and the cops are helpless to stop it.
