In a classic example of projection the FOP of Baltimore has in effect blamed the DA Marilyn Mosby for the death of a police officer who was run over by a Jeep last week.
Baltimore FOP blames State's Attorney Mosby in death of police officer
It wasn’t Mosby who pushed the legislature for the LEOBR that makes it nearly impossible to discipline the corrupt cops for their abuses. That would be the FOP that struggles mightily to keep the corrupt and abusive cops on the job.
A brief look at how the Maryland Law Enforcement Officer's Bill of Rights was passed
The same FOP president who wants to blame Mosby also argued against having civilians st in judgement of cops who were charged with wrongdoing.
Bill to put civilian on police trial boards unlikely to progress
The Legislature was considering a bill to amend the perks of the protected class of citizens and that was simply intolerable. The cops will not be held accountable except by other cops, if the Union can not find reasons to object.
Mosby didn’t have a damn thing to do with the decades of unconstitutional policies and procedures that eroded trust in the department. Mosby did not have anything to do with the failure of the cops to obey the law and hold corrupt cops accountable. That was the FOP who objected to every effort to bring the Baltimore police into even partial compliance with the law.
It wasn’t Mosby who violated the Constitution by arresting people for expressing displeasure with the police or were otherwise critical.

That wasn’t Mosby, that was all you FOP.
The biggest gang of thugs in Baltimore is the ones wearing badges.

BPD violates the First Amendment by retaliating against individuals engaged in constitutionally protected activities. Officers frequently detain and arrest members of the public for engaging in speech the officers perceive to be critical or disrespectful. And BPD officers use force against members of the public who are engaging in protected speech. BPD has failed to provide officers with sufficient guidance and oversight regarding their interactions with individuals that implicate First Amendment protections, leading to the violations we observed.

BPD lacks meaningful accountability systems to deter misconduct. The Department does not consistently classify, investigate, adjudicate, and document complaints of misconduct according to its own policies and accepted law enforcement standards. Instead, we found that BPD personnel discourage complaints from being filed, misclassify complaints to minimize their apparent severity, and conduct little or no investigation. As a result, a resistance to accountability persists throughout much of BPD, and many officers are reluctant to report misconduct for fear that doing so is fruitless and may provoke retaliation. The Department also lacks adequate civilian oversight—its Civilian Review Board is hampered by inadequate resources, and the agency’s internal affairs and disciplinary process lacks transparency.
