ACQUITTED ON ALL THREE ACCOUNTS! OUTRAGE!! Print E-mail

Plans for the Day of the Verdict

 

JUSTICE FOR SEAN BELL AND ALL VICTIMS OF POLICE VIOLENCE!!

COME OUT APRIL 25th - VOICE YOUR OUTRAGE!!

In Nov. 2006, Sean Bell was murdered by the NYPD  in a hail of 50 bullets. His  friends - Trent Benefield and Joseph Guzman - were seriously injured. 3 of the officers involved were acquitted of all charges in a bold affront to the human rights of Sean Bell and all of us.

PEOPLES  JUSTICE  for Community Control and Police Accountability is calling for a rally and community speak-out in front of the Queens DA's office ON THIS DAY*.  

COME OUT:  FRIDAY APRIL 25th 5:30 pm

@ the Queens DA's Office

125-01 Queens Blvd. (between Hoover Ave & 82nd Ave.)

E or F train to Union Turnpike 

The NYPD's murder of Bell and attempted murders of Benefield and Guzman are NOT isolated or random events. They represent the continued targeting of communities of color by the police and the lack of accountability for police misconduct and abuse.
