The indictment, handed down by a grand jury, alleges that Sgt. Ethan Newberg, 49, “did knowingly, intentionally, and unlawfully harass, detain and assault citizens who were engaged in lawful conduct for the improper purposes of dominating, intimidating and instilling fear" in them between July 2018 and May of this year. [From The Archives] ‘Take your charge like a man’: Baltimore police video shows takedown of bystander that led to officer’s arrest » Newberg ignored his training as a police officer and the policies of the department, according to the indictment, and repeatedly “stopped, accosted, intimidated, harassed and threatened” people without probable cause in at least nine separate incidents. It then outlines the nine incidents, including a statement by Newberg that prosecutors said showed his intimidation and harassment in practice. “Have you seen me out here before? Ask around,” Newberg allegedly said at one point. “... I’m the sergeant they talk about, now you’ve met me. ... When I’m conducting police business, just mind your business.” Mosby said at a press conference that Newberg turned himself in to authorities Thursday. Joseph Murtha, Newberg’s attorney, said Newberg — who worked as a supervisor in the Southwest District — was being held without bail Thursday night ahead of a bail review hearing Friday morning, which was unnecessary considering Newberg’s long service and his cooperation in the case from June. "I’m actually terribly disturbed that a 24-year veteran who has made himself available to every aspect of this process has been arrested and is currently being held without bail,” Murtha said. “We will move forward just as we were planning to move forward with the existing case, and hope to vindicate the very dedicated work of Sgt. Newberg — who has the support of the community.” The indictment repeatedly alleges that Newberg gave reasons for detentions or arrests — that bystanders were “inciting a crowd” or putting “officer safety in jeopardy” — when there was no evidence to support the claims, and ample evidence to refute them. In all, Newberg is charged with 11 counts of second-degree assault, 11 counts of false imprisonment, and 10 counts of misconduct — one of which alleges a “common scheme” of misconduct. Mosby said the charges, which stem from a months-long review of Newberg’s body-camera footage, showed her office applies “one standard of justice for all,” regardless of position. “If you break the law and you break the trust that has been given to you by the public, you will face the consequences, whether you wear a badge or not,” Mosby said. She said most police officers in Baltimore are “trustworthy and hardworking,” but actions like those alleged in the indictment are “unacceptable and will not be tolerated.” FAIR USE NOTICE This video may contain copyrighted material; the use of which has not been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.
