Gray, 25, was chased down and arrested by Baltimore officers on April 12 and died a week later.
We're praying for the family of Freddie Gray and the City of Baltimore for a resolve to this horrific death.
Will these officers truly come to justice? Or will they be justified? Due process will tell as they have their day in court...The Eyes of the Nation and the World are on Baltimore.
