An unidentified informant within the Baltimore Police Department has come forward to allege that Freddie Gray was dealing drugs and that preliminary toxicology reports indicate that Gray had marijuana and heroin in his system.

The officer, who appeared on Fox News with his identity concealed, told Sean Hannity that police had caught Gray in the middle of a drug transaction.

“On a Sunday morning, (police) observed Mr. Freddie Gray in a hand-to-hand transaction on the intersection,” the officer said.

He also said that Gray may have swallowed the drugs during the ensuing chase.

“The preliminary toxicology report was done at the University of Maryland Shock Trauma (Unit),” the officer said. “Mr. Gray’s urine was tested and found positive for heroin and marijuana.”

The officer was asked whether Gray was known to be a user of heroin.

“If you were to go on averages, when people flee in Baltimore during a drug transaction, they do two things. The first thing they do would be to possibly throw it in their flight. Their second choice would be to ingest it,” the officer said.

“Nine times out of ten, they’ll stick the drugs right in their mouth … swallow them, and they’re never recovered.”

The police officer then provided an alternate theory as to how Freddie Gray may have died.

“There’s cases where people have swallowed entire packs of 25 gelcaps,” the officer said. “We’ve had cases in the past where people have overdosed and died in that circumstance.”

“If Mr. Gray swallowed Lord knows how many pills — three, four, five, ten — there would obviously be an obvious effect on his respiration, his heart rate, his thinking and his actions.”

In addition to providing the first glimpse into the toxicology reports on Freddie Gray, the police officer’s allegations provide two new angles on the Gray investigation: an alternate cause of death and probable cause for arrest.

Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake had previously said there was no probable cause for Gray’s arrest in her speech after the charges were announced.

Baltimore police have yet to comment on the allegations.

I saw this interview but can't come to a definite conclusion, we still don't have enough concrete evidence to come to an informed decision, anything I said would have to be speculation...He does sound convincing, a lot of what he said fits the common traits of street thugs.

I can't remember which it was, two were interviewed, both had to remain anonymous, this situation would get them killed. One of them described pretty well the way many street thugs act.

On the street, there is a saying, "snitches get stitches". So on the one hand someone who has been in trouble with the law several times can bargain for a little leniency by helping police, but can't let that be known on the street. So they act out when being arrested. Put up a fight, token resistance, go completely limp and have to be dragged to the police cruiser ( or van) instead of walking on their own, (it's not easy to carry dead weight) curse, basically put on a show for the street folks. Then when they get to the station it's an entirely different story. One of the officers interviewed claimed Freddie Gray was well known to police and was an excellent witness, had helped them several times and always acted out so his actions on that day were nothing unusual.

The one who claimed he had weed and heroin in his system also said he didn't think Gray had a history of using, so there was a good chance he simply swallowed it, which was probably the reason for running. He was originally spotted and ran for no apparent reason in the same alley where he had been arrested for selling drugs before more than once. And of you run for no reason, police will chase you down to find out why.

Both sounded pretty credible, and what they related sounded a lot like the way street thugs usually do act, the putting on a show thing and all, so it's fairly believable. but as I said, we don't have enough solid info to come to any definite conclusions...
