10:44 am
that of course was the most mos serious charge facing up to 30g years in prison you can see bigs crowd here in front of the courthouse protesters lots of of media both local and national. a this wore just coming down inind the last couple of seconds.ec there are six more counting toto including different types of manslaughter, second degreeegre assault, reckless endangerment and misconduct in office.ct in c so there's no question officer goodson's defense will be veryer pleased with this because this u was the most serious charge. c begun word coming from insideid the court he's been found notndn guilty of second degree murder.r we'll let you know about theyooo other charges as soon as we he hear. back to you guys.ou g >> so this is the first of the -- i want people to hear waa said it's very important. there were a total six i believe charges. this wasn't is the most seriouss found not guilty of that.t. but other which is carry jails time if he's found guilty? >> reporter: yes, allisonll you're right.you'reht. seven counts in all that we aree waiting to hear from.
10:45 am
so six more to go. to and, yes, second degree assaulta could bring max pump of 10p o years.year reckless endangerment could cou bring maximum of five.e. misconduct in office had no term limits. so certainly there is still the possibility of jail time if in fact he's found guilty of any oa those other counts but the firse word we're getting is not guilti on the most serious that would d have brought up to 30 years inyn prison.pron >> i know that we're stillll waiting for the other words toe come down, jennifer. can you kind of give us a senses of the feeling outside.. obviously we can hear the crowdc chanting and sense that, um, um, something may be rising. >> reporter: well, yes,, protesters have been very cleare they wanted a guilty verdict ant they wanted it on the most the m serious charges.harg he is one of six officers beingi charged in the death of fredin a dough gray, but his charges havh been the most serious so thiso case has certainly been one thae protesters and active visitsviss have really, um, sought to beghb incredibly important, of courseu it comes following the acquittai of edward nero also by the s
10:46 am
judge circuit judge barry bar williams and then there was the mistrial in the first officersto that was charged back in december. de so protesters are not happy so far with what they are seeing in terms of guilty -- in terms of being held accountable for these officers in terms of freddie gray's death.gray's d you can see we've got a big b group out here of police officers, security, media, andnd protesters about to 20 to 30 protesters at this point pnt chanting very loudly calling fof justice for fred did he gray.era they have made it clear theyle t plan today not only to protest o here in front of the courthouses but they're also planning a protest later in the day this afternoon at the area where we saw a lot of riots and clashesls with police last april following gray's death. so certainly tensions are highrg here in baltimore today. today and as we mentioned, not guiltyy verdict on the most serious s charge the second degree murderr we are waitingor
10:47 am
other six.r back to you.ba >> jenn know mentioned the firse trial that ended in mistrial ini that was officer william porterp that was mistrial.thatia that was a jury trial. jury so in that case the jury jur deadlocked. he's going dobb retried in thein case officer nero that was -- ii was he was acquit within thewi last month or so. this is the third trial but talb we're going to see officer o porter on trial once again. a >> this was the same judge, jge right?ght? >> yes.>> >> as officer barry williams, bw right. >> the nero trial. no tr >> right. and jenny correct me if i'm m wrong but this judgee has had prior experience with theseit t types of cases, and very well respected within the legald wi l community in baltimore. >> reporter: he is. h you know, folks we're hearing ii the legal community they consider him courageous they believe he follows the letter of the law. hold and announcement. there's -- announcement made here. for protesters saying
10:48 am
can have their freedom of speecs but the police have said row sai peteed they will not tolerateate any sort of criminal activities. but, yes, this judge very well y respected in the legal communi community. he is the same one thats delivered the verdict in the nero case.nero cas i should say in terms of safetyy here in baltimore, police haveae canceled leaves today for all al officers.ofce they say they are prepared foror whatever comes.om maryland national guard has als been put on stand by in case the governor decides that they node to be brought in to help keep peace. peac but at the same time the mayorae of baltimore has said she thinki too much has been made about tht city rioting and that she she believes while certainly it wast bad last april, that this is a city that can do peacefulceful protests and she believes thatvs that will happen today.oday so we're going to have to see aa the day goes on what happens. we just have the one verdict ata this point.oi >> i know -- last time when then verdict came down for the nero trial, the judge also deliveredr length
10:49 am
he came to his ruling.in are we hearing any of that withw this first verdict coming downid or we simply just getting he was ruled -- found rather not not guilty? >> reporter: holly, we have,e been expecting that to happen ip this case as well.ell last time there were four coun counts. the judge convene at 10:20 and 1 reporters were out of thehe courthouse about 10:50 and thatd was with four counts and as youu mentioned he didn't just readd d the verdict bun't he did explain at great len his reasoning for it.it so we're looking at seven countu this time. the expectation has been thatn t judge williams will do the samee thing this time around. and with seven counts, we expected it to take little te longer. eastbound say if you'rest wondering why we don't have thet other ones yet, there are very e trek rules inside the courtroomo you are not loud to tweet, youeo are not allowed to e-mail fromrm inside the courtroom.rtom your phones must be turned off.. so fox5 and all of the media mia here we have people inside the
10:50 am
courtroom. as soon as they're released thet will rush out to tell us.ell u but if they leave, they're not e loud to go back in.go b i so if you leave you won't hear h all the rest of the counts. >> jenny, we're learning now'ren jenny not guilty on all chargesc not guilty on all charges for cs officer caesar goodson in connection with the death ofeeah fred dough gray.ray. once again that information jusf coming in from baltimore courtre right behind you jenny isenny is outside giving us a feel fors were going on outside insidensid obviously the judge renderingrig those statements so we'll be be seeing activity and jenny whilee we're waiting for news to leakk out about tha when word came out that there was a verdict on that second degree murder charge, did somebody come out -- did somebody run out and announce it? >> reporter: can i ask you a about it?out >> here we go.e go. hold on here.. want to bring in our colleaguele judith you were just inside the courtroom.id tell me what dtrid the judge sa. >> the judge said the stateta failed on all levels to prove the guilt and it was prettytt quiet in there, and everybody just
10:51 am
>> reporter: what was goodson's reaction? >> all counts. >> everyone was very stirring. goodson the lawyers, everybody was just very very calm and very, um, very stoic. >> again, not guilty on all of the counts against officerfficer goodson.go he had been looking at 30od yeas or more in prison.n he will walk out of courthouse today free man and that could -- we'll see how the city reacts to that. back to you guys. >> last time there was verdictct any of gray's friends familyil members or the family attorney,e is he there? we had reaction last time to what happened.d. >> reporter: well we do expectxc the lawyers to come out of the front steps here. they have typically talked too the media after this happens, but they're in the out here yet. literally just coming down seconds ago.go. but i do expect to hear fromm them as the morning goes along. again, not guilty on all counts and the judge saying that t
10:52 am
prosecution failed to show evidence that officer goodson specifically and on purpose tried to do what they call a a rough ride with gray, and thatha he denied him medical care evenn when he passed.d so giant victory not just for officer goodson but many have said if -- not guilty verdict came in this case what will this mean for the other officers who still need to stand trial? ? goodson is one of six officerses but the first one william forward was found not guilty ana will be retried.ed. this was the officer chargeded with the most serious offenses because he was the van driver, and so not guilty verdict for him could have implications for the others who are tried -- -- being charged as well.l. back to you guys. >> jenny, i know that judith iss there we should say judith is our colleague here she works on our assignment desk fromskrom baltimore.im she was in the courtroom.. could you just ask again about caesar goodson's reaction whenhn this was read? i know she saidi it but i just wanted to hear it ag
10:53 am
>> reporter: yes, okay.. judith works with us at fox5.5. can you tell us again and describe sort of what the scenee was inside the courtroom as they read it and how long did it take him?m? >> the trial took -- i mean the verdict it took about 50 minutes to get through all of it. seven charges.rges talked about the rough ride. he talked about how many timeses the driver checked on gray in the back. he went through it all very methodically took a long time tt get through each one and what they had to prove.. >> in the past he's admonishedhd people don't gasp don't row act any way. was there any reaction widespread. >> no. bailiff came in the beginning and said the same thing not too gasp, not to -- we're here for business and we'll move one on getter that done and get out.et. >> reporter: we'll spin aroun around. judith, thank you.k spin around so you can see the protesters and people coming out here of the courthouse. a lot of activity here, very calm right now i have to say the

circumstantial cases are veryrey difficult to prove by way of put in better perspective what happened with the oj case as well as if the case -- anthony case. they were all not guiltyuilt verdicts for murder. >> it's zero for three whenhe we're looking at the threehree trials that happened so for thee death of fred dough gray. >> it's zero for two becauseu porter will be retried. >> he will be retried but aetd u vet rdict of guilty didn't comee down the first time around. >> correct.. >> there's still problems witheh the case is my point.oint. is this an indictment of the state's attorney marilyn moseby. >> i think more what i saw in this trial was it was more of an indictment of baltimore city police department conducted its investigation.at there was evidence with hell from the state, the state didn't know about from a year.ear. there was also evidence that the baltimore police officer, um n provided information to the criminal defense attorneys mr. goodson's attorney withoutwt providing it first to the state. i mean, the state had a tough
10:57 am
saying they didn't, but therehee were some other facts there, t too. >> what didn't the state do in your legal opinion? >> um, i mean insufficient evidence. what they were working with there wasn't any videong, theree wasn't any tv video that clearly showed that mr. gray had a rough ride.ri. esere wasn't any eyewitnesses.tn thatters no video at least notot working inside the van. police officers did not haveave body cameras to actually seeee what was happening when theyey were talking to fred dough gray. it was just a tough case.e. >> could they have done anything differently to actually have the out come be different or is it just they had what they had or r what they didn't have and it it could never have been found guilty?gu >> you know, i've tried as prosecutor, um, circumstantialia murder cases and i've also lost them.them. you're given the hand that your dealt, and i think that theyhey made some mistakes. but i think that given -- i- i don't think the
10:58 am
made would have changed the outt come.. >> how big of a precedent in in your legal opinion will the, you know, the -- this case be moving forward now, because i believe when marilyn moseby came right out if front of this and said these officers charged oftenften with these cases we don't even see indictments.. so how often will future lawyers use the state versus the baltimore city police officerses department or whatever whatever the wording is, how big off precedent is this yes.es. >> i don't know if it's a precedent but i will say and ini stan by this.hi i think these officers should have been charged. i mean there was probable causee and that's standard whether or not there was probable cause tot believe that criminal act hadacd occurred.rred so there's nothing different in that. there's no precedent that's set in that. t i think the only precedent to be set in baltimore is that officers were brought beforeefoe court of law for a judge or injury to determine their guiltt or not guilty and i think thatt that is what
10:59 am
with many citizens that arere charged with murder and that'ss what needs to happen with the officers as long as there'sther probable cause. >> i guess i'm speaking to theg fact that by all accounts freddieto grayou was, you know e at one point and then dead at another point with someoneeo testifying that the back of hiss neck had felt like crumbled where his spine was. was. what happens to that piece? i i guess that's what um asking you? >> it was difficult to proveprov when that happened.. because it was the type of injury hats toward explain where there's no blood f you're shotho or stabbed there's blood.od. there's some way of knowing that the person is injured.ed. the type of injury that he hadad there was really no way for according to what the judge found soar the officers to knowo that he had been, um --, that he had been injured and that he required, you know, medical attention.. it wasn't until he got medical attention at the final stopp where he had stopped breathingre that it waats determined that obviously he had injury, he sustained the injuries that he

>> i'm watching discussions here on social media, and i've seen a couple of people reference when marilyn moseby came out schenn was very adamant in what she thought should happen some som people are questioning what didd her what appeared to be earlyary indictments hurt the open discovery process at all? >> there's some debate about aut that but i mean in terms of i mean she had done ann investigation. i'm not proof fifty two to what actually the investigation, you know, involved but there had been an investigation.. they had spoken to pieces and tv video but i'm not privacy to t know exactly what their investigation was.as. she had enough probable cause at that time to bring the charges. and that's the standard.d. it's not whether you are going to be able to win the case.ase. it's whether at that moment in time whether she had enough probable cause to bring thehe charges against the officers and in court of law to make a
