In Baltimore, the Mayor finally throws Marilyn Mosby under the bus

Two prominent women with both powerful influence and considerable political ambition were in the eye of the media storm all through the Freddie Gray trials in Baltimore these past couple of years. One was Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, who famously held the police back to “give those who wished to destroy space to do that” as rioters were burning down her city. The other was state’s attorney Marilyn J. Mosby. Married to Baltimore City Council member and recent mayoral candidate Nick Mosby, she’s one half of a power couple who shared lofty goals for political prominence. Unfortunately, she’s also the same person who stood on the steps of City Hall during the riots and promised to deliver “Justice for Freddie Gray“ rather than simply justice for all in the city.
In the end, the entire debacle left both women tremendously damaged politically, with Rawlings-Blake deciding not to run for another term as mayor and Mosby’s future highly uncertain. Now, in an interview published at Essence, the Mayor seems to have decided that Mosby is no longer worth covering for and is letting people know that the trials of the police officers involved in the original incident were mishandled and it was pretty much Mosby’s fault.
