Freddie Gray: judge declares mistrial in case against Baltimore police officer | 16 Dec 2015 | Judge Barry Williams declared a mistrial on Wednesday in the case of William Porter, the first of six officers to be tried for the death of Freddie Gray due to injuries he received in the back of a police van. The jury announced that it could not reach a verdict on the charges of manslaughter, second-degree assault, reckless endangerment, and misconduct in office. It is not yet clear what effect the mistrial will have on the subsequent cases, or when Porter might be tried again. Five other officers will be tried one by one in the months to come, several of whom are facing more serious charges for their central role in the events leading to Gray's death in April.
