Man Who Filmed Freddie Gray's Arrest Wept On Hearing Of Charges Against Killer Cops

Kevin Moore, the 30-year-old who had filmed Freddie Gray's arrest, wept when he heard that six officers were charged with illegally detaining and killing Gray, according to dailymail.

He had been arrested on Thursday after he filmed the police detaining Freddie Gray. He was subjected to police harassment since he handed over the footage. On Friday, the State's Attorney Michelle Mosby announced her decision to file criminal charges against the cops, which brought out the tears in him.

His 25-year-old friend, Freddie Gray, had been taken in a paddy wagon at 8.40am on April 12, before the cops even found a cause to arrest him, Mosby told a press conference. She revealed that they had later found a legal knife in his pocket, and claimed he possessed a switchblade illegally.

"I'm exuberant. I'm happy. I'm every positive word you can think of. I finally made a difference in the world," Moore told the Baltimore Sun. "We're going to keep on marching for human rights. We're going to keep on going until this stops - the police brutality."

Mosby's words brought out elation throughout the country.

On the morning of 12 April, Moore was woken by his uncle yelling: "The police are tazing Freddie," according to theindependent.

He ran out into the street and immediately began to video record the incident on his cell phone, as Gray "screamed for his life". One officer put his knee on Gray's neck while another officer bent Gray's legs back.

"They had him folded up like he was a crab or a piece of origami. He was all bent up," Moore said.

After Moore was released, his friends Chad Jackson and Tony White were not released, even as Cop Watch asked for help from lawyers.

Moore was released from custody, but there were two other members of Cop Watch, a group that documents police work across America.

Earlier this week, Moore had slammed the police for releasing his photo and revealing that he was "wanted for questioning".

Moore had already talked to officers and given his footage of Gray's arrest. "What is so important that you have to plaster my picture over the Internet? I've already spoken,'"Moore told the Baltimore Sun. ""For the police to post that picture and say you don't know who I am, that's B.S. You know who I am."

On social media, he posted: "OK y'all everyone by now know that I spoke up for Freddie and recorded all I could. "But I would greatly appreciate if y'all could stop posting pics of me plz it's very uncomfortable knowing that the law is looking for me!! Thank y'all."
