Case of freddie gray. Gray was severely injured last year while in police custody. His death led to rioting. Edward nero is the second of six officers to stand trial, the first trial to reach a verdict. Chip reid is in baltimore. Reporter office edward nero arrived at court today facing the possibility of years behind bars, and when the verdicts of not guilty on all counts were read by judge barry williams, nero burst into tears. Nero, in yellow in this cell phone video of freddie grays arrest, was not charged with his death. The most serious charges were assault and failing to buckle grays seat belt in the police van, where he sustained a fatal spinal cord injury. The judge rejected the states claim of recklessness and negligence, saying there has been no information presented at this trial that the defendant intended for any crime to happen. In a statement, neros attorney said his client is elated that this nightmare is over. He also accused states attorney Marilyn Mosby of rushing to charge him and completely disregarding the facts last may when she charged nero and five other officers before the violent protests had even ended. To the people of baltimore and the demonstrators across america, i heard your call for no justice, no peace. Reporter two of the six officers have now gone the trial with no convictions. The first ended in a mistrial. Marilyn mosbys office, which is under a gag order, did not respond to our request for a comment, but billy murphy, attorney for freddie grays family, said the case against the other officers, especially those charged drctdly in grays death, is far from over. In this case, it does not define the other cases in no way. And judge williams was very careful to distinguish this officers lack of culpability from any of the other officers. Reporter the entire Baltimore Police department was ordered to report to work today and dozens of other officers were brought in from neighboring jurisdictions just in case there was violence, but, norah, there were only a few dozen protesters and they were peaceful. Odonnell chip reid, thank you. The Supreme Court today overturned the murder conviction and death sentence of a black man in georgia. In a 71 decision, the court ruled prosecutors had unconstitutionally excluded African Americans from the allwhite jury. The sole dissenter was the only black justice, clarence thomas. Heres jan crawford. Reporter the opinion by chief Justice John Roberts underscores the longheld principle race cannot be factor in excluding blacks from jurors. But in the 1987 jury trial of a georgia man, the court said the focus on race by prosecutors did just that, demonstrating a consorted effort to keep black perspective jurors off the jury. The decision paves the way for a new trial for timothy foster, who was convicted of the brutal rape and murder of an elderly schoolteacher and sentenced to death. The jugstieses have signaled that oral arguments they were troubled by the case. Justice elena kagan said the prosecutors cut was as clear a violation as the court is ever going to see thanks to the discovery of the prosecutors notes. The names of the potential African American jurors were highlighted in green and in this list of possible jurors titled definite no, the top five people are black. Georgia argued that prosecutors had flagged the black perspective jurors to make sure they were following new Supreme Court guidelines handed down in a landmark 1986 case to prevent Racial Discrimination in jury selection. Now, some antideath penalty groups say that race discrimination in jury selection may be less obvious today, but it still persist, but norah, this case focused solely on fosters trial 30 years ago. It did not address those bigger concerns. Odonnell jan crawford outside the Supreme Court. January, thank you.

Reporter do i think she is the kind of chair that the Democratic Party needs . No, i dont. Reporter sanders put his money where his mouth is this weekend, raising 250,000 dollars to defeat congresswoman Debbie Wasserman schultz, the chair of his own adopted party. The money went to her primary opponent, a florida professor named tim canova. I think senator sanders wants to see a progressive congress. Hes been in a position to assess Debbie Wasserman schultzs leadership abilities, an we see a party thats increasingly divided and perhaps in no small part because of her actions. Reporter its the latest evidence of a greg rift between sanders and party leaders. Saturday night live captured one source of his resentment this weekend. Remember all those states like wyoming where you beat me by a lot but then i still got most of the delegates. Oh, my god to Debbie Wasserman schultz. To debbie. Reporter sanders has also blamed Wasserman Schultz for limiting many of the debates and holding them on weekends. Wasserman schultz called sanders an instigator of his supporters disrupted a convention. Has this incident tested the fragile detente between the Sanders Campaign and democratic leaders. I can tell you that im not doing anything to discourage the senator from continuing his campaign. Reporter today she did announce that sanders will get to name five of the 15 members of the committee that will draft the Democratic Party platform for the convention. Sanders also wants one more debate against clinton in california, but so far he has no answer. Odonnell nancy cordes, thank you. The top u. S. Military commander for the middle east made a secret visit to syria over the weekend. Army general joseph votel met with rebels and kurds fighting the assad regime and isis. Today isis unleashed a series of bomb blasts along syrias mediterranean coast. More than 120 people were killed. Elizabeth palmer reports isis hoped to rattle the dictator. Reporter no one caught up in todays deadly bombings believes this could happen in rutba. Its the heartland of the regime, home to Bashar Al Assads family and to two Russian Military bases. Until today it was the most secure part of the country, so much so that during our last visit, we found syrians on the beach taking a break from the war. But todays carnage sends a message to syrians from isis its on the offensive, and now nowhere is safe. But recent isis bombings, like the one that ripped through baghdad two weeks ago, may actually show that the group is on the defensive. Just last week it was chased out of rutba near the iraqi border, and overall its territory has been shrinking for months. [gunfire] now isis may be about the lose fallujah, which its controlled for more than two years. On national television, iraqi Prime MinisterHaider Al Abadi told the country, the army is determined to win. For months iraqi forces have been training with u. S. Advisers, and today 20,000 soldiers, counterterrorism troops and police began their offensive. If history is anything to go by, the battle for fallujah with heavy losses on both sides could last for weeks. And in the past two days, for the very first time, an isis spokesman admitted the group could lose its main strongholds but warned it would carry on operating as a violent insurgency, which probably means well see more bombings like the ones we saw today.
