Prince George’s County prosecutors have not found enough evidence to charge anyone with a crime in the controversial jail death of accused cop killer Ronnie White, sources close to the case said.
Glenn Ivey, Prince George’s County state’s attorney, is expected to ask federal authorities for greater help in the case, which could lead to a federal civil rights investigation.
Medical examiners have concluded that 19-year-old White was murdered in his solitary jail cell in June just two days after he was arrested for allegedly running down and killing police Sgt. Richard Findley with a stolen truck.
Investigators have focused their attention on three corrections officers who had access to White the morning he was found slumped against his bunk. The corrections union has consistently said that White committed suicide.
A county grand jury investigating the case decided to issue no indictments last fall. Ivey said at the time that the investigation was continuing.
