There continues to be community unrest over the death of Baltimore resident Anthony Anderson.  Over the weekend, protestors demonstrated outside the Roland Park residence of Baltimore City State’s Attorney Gregg Bernstein, who announced last month he would not press charges in Mr. Anderson’s death.  Mr. Anderson died in police custody after he was arrested last fall.  During the arrest, Detective Todd Strohman tackled Anderson, leaving him with eight broken ribs and a ruptured spleen.  He died that same evening. 

Last week, we spoke with State’s Attorney Gregg Bernstein about his decision not to press charges.  This week, we talk with J. Wyndal Gordon, attorney for the family of Anthony Anderson.
