Freddie Gray before dying from his spinal injuries at the hands of police

You can't make this crap up:

A prisoner sharing a police transport van with Freddie Gray told investigators that he could hear Gray “banging against the walls” of the vehicle and believed that he “was intentionally trying to injure himself,” according to a police document obtained by The Washington Post.

(Obtained, leaked, whatever ...)

So, Freddie Gray severed his own spine and crushed his own larynx (during the 45 minutes it took the Baltimore Police to transport him less than a mile). O-kay.

Oh, and by the way, from Jayne Miller at Baltimore's WBAL on April 23:

BPD Comm Anthony Batts says 2nd prisoner in van with Freddie Gray reports no erratic driving by van driver and Gray mostly quiet
— @jemillerwbal

Oops.

Coincidentally, over the past several hours, three different friends or relatives of the suspended police officers have gone on the news—anonymously and without showing their faces—to give amazingly similar stories of what really happened that night. (Hint: Not the cops fault!)

You can see where this is all going ...
