[QUOTE="oldngray, post: 1613807, member: 45230"] Famed defense attorney and legal scholar Alan Dershowitz had harsh words for Maryland state attorney Marilyn Mosby, who on Friday announced stiff charges against six Baltimore police officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray. “This is a show trial,” Dershowitz said during an interview Friday with Newsmax TV’s Steve Malzberg. “Today had nothing to do with justice. Today was crowd control. Everything today was motivated by a threat of riots and a desire to prevent riots.” Dershowitz said that none of the evidence presented so far by Mosby and through the media warrants a second-degree murder charge against Goodson Jr. “There’s no plausible, hypothetical, conceivable case for murder under the facts as we now know them,” Dershowitz said.
