Records: Thousands Too Injured to Enter Baltimore Jail
Sunday, May 10, 2015 04:58 PM

 

Newly released records show that thousands of people have been brought to the Baltimore city jail in recent years with injuries too severe for them to be admitted.

The Baltimore Sun obtained records showing that correctional officers at the jail refused to admit nearly 2,600 detainees who were in police custody between June 2012 and April 2015.

Baltimore police are under scrutiny for their treatment of detainees following the death of Freddie Gray last month. Six officers have been charged in Gray's death, which sparked riots and widespread protests. The Justice Department is conducting a civil-rights investigation of Baltimore police.

The records obtained by The Sun show that 123 of the detainees who weren't admitted to jail had visible head injuries. Others had broken bones or facial trauma.

The line is when police mete out punishment, beyond the force needed to capture, restrain and transport the suspects, who have not yet been found and sentenced by a court of law.

In too many instances, they feel an entitlement of meting out some punishment, for the trouble they have been put through to effect the capture.

As I have repeatedly stated, Police need better equipment, tactics and training.

On the surface it looks like a race issue, but that only arises because of the violent criminal behavior of blacks, their frequent contact with LE, etc.

This is why I think these cops should get the death penalty if their guilty.
that and taking damages out of the police pension funds would end this crap quick
