OMG. The full quote..
"Baltimore prosecutors say a request for police training manuals by defense attorneys in the Freddie Gray case is a "fishing expedition" that would be "oppressive" to meet."
Oppressive???? Handing over a hard or electronic copy of a procedural manual is OPPRESSIVE??????? :crazy:
And what happened to not "trying the case in the media?"
I bet there are a few things in the training manual that will hurt Mosby's case. For one, there will be discussion about handcuffing before an arrest and before frisking, if it is needed for officers safety. And two, there might be a discussion about what to do if putting a suspect in the truck and he is combative. If it suggests there is no need to buckle them in, the state will be in trouble here.
