BALTIMORE POLICE UNION: Cops More Afraid of Going to Jail for Doing Their Job Than Getting Shot
BALTIMORE POLICE UNION: Cops More Afraid of Going to Jail for Doing Their Job Than Getting Shot
Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby charged six local police officers with murder and manslaughter in the death of serial criminal Freddie Gray on May 1.
Since the police were charged arrests in Baltimore are down by 50%.
The Baltimore Police Chief released a statement today saying the police are more afraid of going to jail in the city under the current Democratic leadership than they are of taking a bullet.
The Baltimore City Fraternal Order of Police released a statement today. President Lieutenant Gene Ryan says the officers are more afraid of going to jail for doing their jobs that they are of getting shot.
The Baltimore City Fraternal Order of Police said on Thursday that Baltimore’s recent rise in crime is linked to fear among police officers that they will be arrested for doing their jobs.
This fear, the union said, comes as a result of the arrests of six officers for the death of Freddie Gray. Gray was wrongly arrested and died of injuries sustained during his arrest. The State Attorney’s Office filed charges against six officers in Gray’s death.
“The criminals are taking advantage of the situation in Baltimore since the unrest. Criminals feel empowered now. There is no respect. Police are under siege in every quarter. They are more afraid of going to jail for doing their jobs properly than they are of getting shot on duty,” union president Lieutenant Gene Ryan said in a statement.
