A US grand jury has indicted all six officers charged over the death of Freddie Gray, who died of injuries suffered in police custody in Baltimore.
The decision allows the state attorney to press ahead with the most serious charges despite criticism that she was part of an "overzealous prosecution".
The indictments are similar to the charges state attorney Marilyn Mosby announced three weeks ago after the incident that sparked major rioting in the city.
The charges ranged from second-degree "depraved heart" murder to assault.
Lawyers for the officers have said in court documents that they are the victims of an "overzealous prosecution" riddled with personal and political conflicts of interest.
At a minimum, they said, Ms Mosby should be replaced with an independent prosecutor.
