Balt. Radio: ExCop Causes Stir On WBAL-AM Exposing Bad Conduct

A former cop is giving Baltimore a look behind the cloak of its police department.

Former Sgt. Michael Wood spent a decade with the Baltimore Police Department.  Before that, Wood was a US Marine.  Last week he took to Twitter to blow the whistle on police brutality and misconduct within the Baltimore Police Department.  Below are a sample of his tweets.





Wood has also talked to the Derek Hunter Show on WBAL 1090 AM.   Here is a clip of Michael Wood Jr. talking about his tweets:



And the entire interview:



The Baltimore City Police have issued the following statement:
The recent allegations made by Mr. Michael Wood are serious and very troubling.  The Police Commissioner has made clear that the Baltimore Police Department will never tolerate malicious conduct.   
We hope that during his time as both a sworn member and as a sergeant with supervisory obligations, that Mr. Wood reported these disturbing allegations at the time of their occurrence.  If he did not, we strongly encourage him to do so now, so that our Internal Affairs Division can begin an immediate investigation.   
In a recently published letter to the Baltimore Sun, the Police Commissioner made clear that his reform efforts remain focused on rooting out the type of conduct that is alleged.  We implore Mr. Wood or anyone else with knowledge of such acts to contact our Internal Affairs Division at 410-396-2300.
