Police earlier said the van stopped once so that officers could put Gray in "leg irons" because he had become "irate;" stopped again because the driver asked for an additional unit to check on Gray's condition, and then again to put an additional prisoner in the van's other compartment before arriving at the station. Last week, Batts had said the second prisoner told investigators the driver did not speed, make sudden stops or "drive erratically" during the trip, and that Gray was "was still moving around, that he was kicking and making noises" up until the van arrived at the police station. Gray's death has unleashed a maelstrom of unrest, with protests in Baltimore and around the nation, putting pressure on city and police officials to explain what happened. "I understand the frustration, I understand the sense of urgency, and so has the organization, and that is why we finished a day ahead of time," Batts said. State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby must review the evidence, consider charges and decide how to move forward in the death of Gray, who suffered severe spinal injuries at some point after he tried to run from police on April 12, and died a week later. Mosby did not return a call from NBC News requesting comment, but her office confirmed it had received the police department's investigative file. "While we have and will continue to leverage the information received by the department, we are not relying solely on their findings but rather the facts that we have gathered and verified," Mosby said. We ask for the public to remain patient and peaceful and to trust the process of the justice system," her statement said. Gray died April 19, a week after being arrested in West Baltimore. The 35-year-old is tasked with determining whether charges are warranted in the controversial death of Freddie Gray, the 25-year-old black man who died after suffering a spinal cord injury in police custody. Batts said police would keep probing at the direction of the state's attorney, while Mosby stressed that her office is doing its own investigation. Bystander videos recorded police loading him, dragging his legs, into one of two metal compartments in the back of the van. Many residents and activists had been eyeing Friday as a day that findings of the police investigation might be released, but police and Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake had worked the previous day to dispel those expectations. "Whatever time the state's attorney's office needs to make that determination, the family wants to get it right," she said Wednesday after meeting with Gray's family and legal team. One new piece of information did emerge Thursday: Deputy Commissioner Kevin Davis said police determined that the police wagon transporting Gray made a previously unknown stop, at North Fremont Avenue and Mosher Street. "However, the results of their investigation is not new to us," the office said in a statement. "
– Baltimore's police department wrapped up its own investigation into Freddie Gray's death a day early and turned it over to the city's top prosecutor today, reports the Baltimore Sun. Now all eyes are on State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby, who is in her fourth month on the job and at 35 is the youngest lead prosecutor in any major US city, reports NBC News. Her supporters, though, say she's perfect for the case. Police work runs in her family, but she campaigned for office talking tough against police brutality. "She has a natural affinity for police officers and law enforcement types, and at the same time, she is aware of the incredible number of complaints against the Baltimore city police department," says an attorney who knows her. "It was important to have somebody who was willing to look at it from both sides, and Marilyn Mosby fits the bill." Mosby's office released a statement emphasizing that it will conduct its own investigation into Gray's death and not just rely on the police report. One new wrinkle: Police revealed that the van carrying Gray made an additional, previously undisclosed, stop on the way to the police station, though the reason and significance aren't clear. The AP says the van stopped at "a desolate intersection with three vacant lots and a corner store." (Earlier, another prisoner in the van suggested that Gray was trying to injure himself, at least according to a police document cited by the Washington Post.)
