• 6:48 p.m. Marches continue Friday night in Baltimore as hundreds trek past booking centers where the officers were processed.

• 5:09 p.m.: William Murphy, an attorney for the Gray family, says this is the time to call for change in how police deal with suspects. “If Freddie Gray is not to die in vain we must seize this opportunity to reform police departments throughout this country.”

 

Interestingly enough, all of the officers had lower bail than the $500,000 bond set for a Baltimore protestors. Alicia White was the only officer who had not yet been freed.
