West Baltimore’s Police Presence Drops, and Murders Soar - NYTimes.com

West Baltimore’s Police Presence Drops, and Murders Soar - NYTimes.com: "A month and a half after six officers were charged in Mr. Gray’s death, policing has dwindled in some of Baltimore’s most dangerous neighborhoods, and murders have risen to levels not seen in four decades. The totals include a 29-year-old man fatally shot on this drug corner last month. Police union officials say that officers are still coming to work, but that some feel a newfound reluctance and are stepping back, questioning whether they will be prosecuted for actions they take on the job."
