Barack Obama said :
“It is absolutely vital that the truth comes out on what happened to Mr. Freddie Gray, and it is my practice not to comment on the legal processes involved, that would not be appropriate,” Obama said. “But I can tell you that justice needs to be served. All the evidence needs to be presented. Those individuals who are charged, obviously, are also entitled to due process and rule of law and so, you know, I want to make sure our legal system runs the way it should.”
Barack Obama said that the department of justice and new attorney General Loretta Lynch is linked in with Baltimore police forces and will be helping out with the case in any way possible.
Barack Obama continued with :
“I’m gratified we’ve seen the constructive, thoughtful protests that have been taking place, peaceful, but clear calls for accountability that those have been managed over the last couple of days in a way that’s ultimately positive for Baltimore and positive for the country,” the president continued. “And I hope that approach to nonviolent protest and community engagement continues.”
