Teen faces higher bail than Baltimore cops accused of murder | MSNBC

Allen Bullock, a Baltimore teen arrested for smashing a police car window with a traffic cone amid the Freddie Gray protests last week, is reportedly being held on a higher bail than the officers charged on Friday in Gray’s death.

Bullock, 18, who voluntarily surrendered to authorities at the urging of his parents, is being held on $500,000 bail, while the six officers accused in the Gray case were held on a range of $250,000 to $350,000, according to the Associated Press. NBC News has confirmed that all six officers arrested for Gray’s death have since been bailed out.

Nothing stopping you from sending him some bail money.

Bail is determined by risk of flight and the chances of whether a person will show up in court to answer charges. The chances of the police officers fleeing is low. As for that thug fleeing, and the police capturing him again, well, your guess is as good as mine.

The rules have been spelled out by AP via the AP Style guide, but rarely to so called journalists follow them.

18 plus is an adult.

17-13 is a teen

Is it possible that he has a criminal history that is a factor?

Meh, don't feel the slightest bit of pity. I'm the same age as him and I know that doing something like that is not only illegal, but incredibly stupid when you have hundreds of cameras pointed at you. Nothing to do with Freddy's legacy.

Trust me I see the hypocrisy, but he's a jackass.

@Fargo, we're considered "young adults".

Oh well, he shouldn't have thrown the cone. Breaking a police car window is not going to solve a thing.
