Judge refuses dismissal for Undercover Cops in NY slayings case
Remember that case in New York when undercover police officers killed an unarmed man before his wedding by shooting over 40 rounds? Well a State Supreme Court Judge denied the defense lawyer’s motion to dismiss the case. While this is a good step, the trial is still far from being over. Sean Bell, who was 23, was killed on November 25, 2006 because undercover police officers thought the was reaching for a gun. A following investigation revealed the victim and his party were unarmed. Recalling from an interview that I saw at the time of the shooting, though Sean Bell never got a chance to get married, his girlfriend still undertook his last name.
