The definition of depraved-heart murder per Black's Law Dictionary is "unintentional murder (18c) 1. A killing for which malice is implied because the person acted with intent to cause serious physical injury or knew that the conduct was substantially certain to cause death or serious physical injury. In some jurisdictions, this term is applied generally to several grades of killings without express intent. Also termed unintended murder."
and upon rereading she actually stated what happened:
"Following transport from Baker Street, Mr. Gray suffered a severe and critical neck injury as a result of being handcuffed, shackled by his feet and unrestrained inside of the BPD wagon," Mosby said.
....she referred to the Baltimore City Sheriff's Office. Now that's been a very, very debatable issue in terms of the jurisdiction that the sheriff has coinciding with the Police Department, so it's very interesting that she reached out to the Sheriff's Office of Baltimore City, who is elected and independent of the Police Department and independent of the mayor, and whatever investigative tools that she used, it appears that she did a very comprehensive investigation."
