BALTIMORE — The police officer who prosecutors once said was most responsible for the in-custody death of a black man in Baltimore will appear Monday before a disciplinary board that will determine whether or not he should be fired. THE BACKGROUNDOn April 12, 2015, Gray was arrested after running from officers near the Gilmor Homes projects. Nero and Miller recently accepted disciplinary action, according to the police union attorney who represents them. The hearing will focus on whether the officer in question violated department policies and procedures. In the disciplinary hearing, the burden of proof will not be as high as the criminal trial.
