Slain Baltimore detective was tied to 2 high-profile cases

He was a rat -- you don't turn on your fellow Brothers like that ...

it's a code of honor among cops that you NEVER rat out a fellow officer ...

if you do, there WILL be consequences

This 'who dun it' would make a great book or movie. can't wait to see how it gets solved.

BPD has been corrupt for decades. I think it's only a matter of time before they dig up what really happened. Someone's gonna talk. Isn't the reward money up to almost a quarter of a million dollars? Yeah, someone is gonna talk. Got to pay them Christmas bills.

most likely a neighborhood thug killed him, but even if fellow cops did it, so ?

You don't rat out fellow officers -- not without consequences

A dirty cop is no longer your brother in blue, he is your enemy.

To be expected in a shithole like Baltimore.
