Appalled

Posted on April 25, 2008March 11, 2022 by romanagiulia

Actually, incredulous is more the feeling here. Just read that the detectives that were charged in the Sean Bell shooting have been acquitted of all charges. If you’re not familiar with this case, here’s a snippet:

Bell was gunned down on the eve of what was to be his wedding day in November 2006 outside a nightclub in Jamaica that was being investigated by undercover police officers. Bell and his friends had just left his bachelor party when police say they heard one of them reference a gun. Police fired 50 bullets at the group as they tried to drive away, killing Bell and seriously injuring his friends Joseph Guzman and Trent Benefield.

Need I say more? If Sean Bell was involved in wrong-doing, shouldn’t have they tried to say, I dunno, read his rights and arrest him?! The police fired 50 bullets…I’m speechless that the case has turned out this way.
