Freddie Gray death: Judge to decide whether to move case out of Baltimore
- 9 years ago
A judge will hear arguments Thursday on whether six police officers in the Freddie Gray trial can receive fair trials in Baltimore.
As Judge Barry Williams considers defense arguments on moving the case out of Baltimore, protesters will gather outside the court in the latest rallying call demanding justice.
The hearing comes a day after Baltimore officials approved a $6.4 million deal to settle all civil claims tied to Gray's death.
Gray suffered a fatal spinal injury while he was transported in a Baltimore police van in April.
His death sparked outrage and days of massive protests, including some that turned violent.
Buildings went up in flames, and local businesses were devastated by vandalism and looting - despite the Gray family's pleas for peace.
