In this March 3, 2016 file photo, Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby, left, arrives at Maryland Court of Appeals in Annapolis, Md.

Legal experts say the acquittal in the racially charged case could be seen by some as a confirmation of criticism that Mosby rushed to file charges. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana, File)
