. >> joining me now is andrew o'connell, the attorney for the family of mr. gray. there are so many questions here. let me ask you this, is the family in custody of freddie gray's body and do you have any concrete medical examination to tell you definitively what happened? >> the family is making arrangements to have the body collected from the medical examiner and making funeral arrangements in the short-term. with regards to the contents of the medical examiner's report, we don't know what's in that, but they are anxiously awaiting that. >> what does it say to you that there appears to be collective representation on the part of these police officers, who are suspected here? >> well, it's not surprising at this early stage. that could change as the investigation or the various investigations play out over time. one individual may need separate counsel or they may all need separate counsel, depending on which direction it goes. >> does the family have a response to the head of the police union's use of the word "lynch mob," to describe what, as far as we can tell,

let's talk about this with andrew o'connell. he's an attorney for the family of freddie gray. thanks so much for being with us. really interesting. this new stop, we hadn't been told about it. the police had previously laid out a timeline about what happened to freddie gray, when they say he was running between that point and when he got to the police station. now they say that a privately owned security camera picked up footage of this additional stop. what do you make of that? >> this time line that the police have been discussing is a moving target. it has changed over time. what i would like to know and what we have been asking for from the beginning are the radio runs that are recorded during these stops. wherever a police officer makes a stop, they are supposed to radio it in. those are recorded in this building right over my right shoulder. we haven't seen those. those are usually the best way to get an accurate picture of what happened during an arrest event. whether it was supplemented by a privately owned camera. >> why would it take a privately owned camera. why cou

but joining me now is andrew o'connell, the attorney for the family of freddie gray. first, explain to us how freddie's family specifically his mom is reacting to what's being done what people would say is being done in his name? >> obviously the family is still grieving -- just yesterday. the gray family asked for peace following his burial and unfortunately they didn't get that. we all saw the rioting and looters last night, which does a disservice to the message that the family would like to get out, which is seeking justice for mr. gray and to continue or to maintain calm. >> that is the catalyst that brought us to this situation was the fact that freddie gray was taken into custody on april the 12th allegedly receiving such severe injuries that he died from a coma -- in a coma a week later. we are expected to have a report that is going to be released on the death of freddie gray on the first, correct, may 1st? >> that's right. the police department will release their results of their investigation. what we would like to see now though are the parts of the report
