Reviews/Praise:

​

"Barron debuts with an impassioned account...  She debunks the Baltimore police department’s account in meticulous, point-by-point detail... Barron’s writing is powered by outrage over Gray’s death and the failure to hold anyone accountable. Readers will be troubled."—Publisher's Weekly

​

"Complex, dense in detail, and sharply argued: a firm indictment of injustice committed on the street and in the courtroom."—Kirkus Reviews

​

"A fascinating, intriguing look at police and political abuse of those caught up in the criminal justice system... This 'You Are There' format gives the reader entree into the final moments of Freddie Gray’s life and allows the reader to experience the uniqueness of those connected. I wholeheartedly endorse this work and encourage all to experience the constitutional abuse of power first hand."—Sgt. Ron Stallworth (Ret.),  author of "Black Klansman"

​

"Required reading for anyone who thinks policing will be fixed or justice achieved by civilian review boards, progressive prosecutors, blue-ribbon panels, or high-paid 'police reformers.' Barron makes clear that abusive policing is business as usual for Baltimore's political class."—Alex Vitale, author of "The End of Policing"

​

"The fullest story of Freddie Gray's death to date." - Baltimore Magazine

​

"If there is to be a seminal text investigating the truth about the killing of Gray and the ensuing cover-up, this book will be it."—Rabia Chaudry, author of "Adnan's Story" (from the foreword)

​

"Meticulous and engrossing, They Killed Freddie Gray provides a multifaceted analysis of the investigative, prosecutorial, and journalistic shortcomings that characterized the aftermath of Freddie Gray's arrest. Unearthing new details, it reveals the cover-up that has kept the full story from us until now... This book explains why and how justice was not done, and why the city, and the country, should still feel no peace."—Stuart Schrader, author of "Badges Without Borders: How Global Counterinsurgency Transformed American Policing."

​

"Meticulously researched, genuinely gripping, and compelling in its conclusions." - Colin Miller, "Undisclosed" podcast
