That was me theorizing. So far, that's not established.
Also, there's such a thing as excessive force. If the cops slammed him into a bike rack or did a knee drop on Gray's neck, that's excessive.

Malicious injury in the van? That's criminal.

Taking an injured arrestee (video evidence) and tossing him unsecured into the van (acknowledged) would qualify as criminal negligence at least. Then giving him a "rough ride", causing terminal injuries or aggravating existing injuries to a terminal level, is at the very least negligent homicide.

Bottom line? Gray killed himself by running from police and being unlawfully armed. Don't do that, none of this ever occurs.

Last time I checked, being fatally injured by the cops wasn't suicide.
Last time I checked, running from the police wasn't a capital offense.
Last time I checked, cops were not empowered to act as judge and jury.
