BALTIMORE — Several years after facing manslaughter and other charges in the 2015 deadly arrest of Freddie Gray, Alicia White was promoted Friday from lieutenant to captain, continuing to climb the ranks inside the Baltimore Police Department.
She will serve as captain of the department’s Performance Standards Section, which conducts audits and inspections to make sure the agency is properly following its policies. The West Baltimore native served in a similar role before her promotion.
White was among six officers charged in the Freddie Gray case by Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby. None were convicted, and all ultimately returned to the department after internal investigations quietly concluded. Gray died in April 2015 after suffering a severe spinal cord injury inside a police van.
