Baltimore Court Rejects Marilyn Mosby’s Freddie Gray Autopsy Gag Order

I think Clubber Lang said it best....



Once again, Prosecutor Marilyn Mosby seems to be having difficulty grasping fundamentals of the practice of law.

Indeed, she’s now reduced to making exactly the same errors she only recently accused opposing counsel of making.

In this most current instance, Mosby’s motion for a gag order on the Freddie Gray case has been rejected, reports the Baltimore Sun (h/t Conservative Treehouse).

The reason? She filed her motion in Circuit Court on May 14th, but while the matter was still jurisdictionally in the lower District Court. The matter was not moved into Circuit Court until May 21st, a week later.

Ironically, in Mosby’s motion opposing defense counsel’s efforts to have her recuse herself from the case the Prosecutor argued that it was improper of the defense to make that argument in District Court, where the matter then rested, knowing as they did that the case would end up in Circuit Court....

In addition, the State must share with the defense all incriminating and exculpatory evidence their investigation unearths, well before the trial itself through the discovery process. All of it.

So much for Mrs. Mosby's rising-star 2016 U.S. Senate campaign.

I think Homer Simpson said it best....
