I assume reporters did their dude diligence, but yesterday wasn't the "other guy" a 38 year old arrested for violating a protective order - ty97 Apr 30, 18:56 1
- dude diligence. heh. (you know what I mean) -- nm - ty97 Apr 30, 18:57
That report yesterday smelled like bull immediately. A few reporters were questioning it and knew it was crap. - Krusty Apr 30, 18:50 12
- But in the article linked above he says he "told homocide that" - IrishStephen Apr 30, 18:54 11
  - There is a huge difference on the streets between the homicide detectives and the beat cops - professor smartbrain Apr 30, 18:56 10
    - Ok.... but he still backs up the statement that he told homocide that he heard someone banging their head... - IrishStephen Apr 30, 18:58 9
      - I think from the Post story it wasn't actually his statement, but rather an officer's account of his statement. -- nm - mafic Apr 30, 19:15 4
        
        The police themselves had already stated that Gray was unresponsive before the second guy was even picked up -- nm - professor smartbrain Apr 30, 19:23
        
        Right, but he's not denying that that is what he told Homicide... - IrishStephen Apr 30, 19:23 2
        
        seems to refute the 'he was intentionally trying to injure himself' part at least. -- nm - mafic Apr 30, 19:30 1
        
        ...in what way? -- nm - IrishStephen Apr 30, 19:32
      - WTH? Homicide.... - IrishStephen Apr 30, 19:00
      - Well, he heard banging. Unless he has x-ray vision he has no idea what (or who) was causing the banging. -- nm - ty97 Apr 30, 18:59 2
        
        True. But "didn't know Gray was there..." /= he didn't hear anything when he goes on to say that he told Homicide that he did hear banging. - IrishStephen Apr 30, 19:05 1
        
        I have no idea how hard you need to throw yourself and won't conjecture. - ty97 Apr 30, 19:28
