As the internal investigation continues into the death of Baltimore resident Freddie Gray, a document has leaked that claims a fellow prisoner in the van with Gray told police that the deceased man was “trying to injure himself.”According to The Washington Post a prisoner who was also being transported in the police van on April 12 said he could hear Gray “banging against the walls” and said that he felt that Gray “was intentionally trying to injure himself.”
Until now there has been no speculation on how Gray could have entered the police van in perfectly functional condition only to be found unresponsive by the time the transport van arrived at the police station a half-hour later.
Gray was arrested on April 12 on a gun related charge but died seven days later after suffering a spinal cord injury in the van.
The unnamed prisoner could not see Gray, as a metal partition separated the two inside the vehicle.
Gray’s family attorney has disputed the document...

There has been plenty of speculation by people who know unofficial police procedures. You take a handcuffed citizen, toss him in the back of the all metal paddy wagon and don't fasten him into a seat belt. Then you accelerate and brake suddenly, take turns at high rates of speed, basically playing pinball with the citizen in the back of the van. Simple physics used by the cops to torture people.
And you believe that bullshit?
What the fuck, are you a Patriot or a retarded asshat doorman?
I had a prisoner slam his head repeatedly into a holding cell wall. We put a football helmet on him. He shimmied the chin strap off, got the helmet off and started again, slamming his head and face against the bench this time. Blood all over the place. We had to duct tape the helmet to his head. He still tried to get it off.
Now you may very well ask, why did the sheriff deputies keep football helmets in the booking office? Answer is simple, 'cause this shit happens ALL THE TIME. Been in law enforcement for over 40 years. You people have no clue....
