Baltimore Police Officer Edward Nero (L) has been acquitted on all charges in the Freddie Gray case. A Baltimore officer was acquitted Monday of assault and other charges in the arrest of Freddie Gray. Upon hearing the verdict, Nero hugged his attorney and appeared to wipe away a tear. Nero, who is white, was the second of six officers charged in the racially combustible case to stand trial. The manslaughter case against Officer William Porter ended in a mistrial in December when the jury could not agree on a verdict.
