Following Acquittal of NYPD Officers in Sean Bell Killing, Advocates Call for Special Prosecutor in Police Brutality Cases
In New York, a coalition of civil rights advocates are calling for a permanent state-level special prosecutor to handle police brutality cases following the acquittal of three NYPD detectives in the killing of Sean Bell. The twenty-three-year-old Bell died in a hail of fifty police bullets on the morning of what would have been his wedding day in November 2006. Two of his friends were also injured in the shooting. All three men were unarmed. We speak with Sanford Rubinstein, the attorney representing Sean Bell's fiancee Nicole Paultre-Bell, and with Jessica Sanclemente, the co-coordinator of People's Justice.

THEN THERE'S THIS BLUE WALL OF SILENCE. A BLUE WALL OF SILENCE?...BY PEOPLE WITH GUNS AND AUTHORITY?....... AND THIS IS OKAY? AY ....I SUGGEST YA'LL TALK TO THOSE FEW COPS IN NY THAT DON'T CARE ABOUT A BLUE WALL OF SILENCE. LISTEN WHAT TO WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY. THESE PIGS HAVE A "BLUE WALL" FOR A REASON. THEY HAVE A LOT TO HIDE. IF ANYBODY CAN PROVE ANYTHING I SAID AS FALSE, DO IT. BUT THE SECOND THE PIGS START WASTING WHITE PEOPLE, WATCH HOW SERIOUS EVERYBODY GET.

PEOPLE SEEM TO FORGET THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS SUPPOSE TO WORK FOR US....NOT US FOR THEM. WE PAY TAXES JUST TO HAVE THEM PISS IN OUR FACE AND HAVE THEIR GOONS KILL US AT WILL. WHEN THE REVOLUTIION START, WAKE ME UP BECAUSE ALL THIS MARCHING AND PROTESTING DON'T DO SHIT. ON THE DAY OF THE VERDICT, POLICE IN MY JAMAICA NY NEIGHBORHOOD WERE EXTRA NICE. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE DAY TO COMMIT A CRIME IF THAT'S WHAT YOU DO. IT WAS RIDICULOUSLY PHONY. NOT ONE TICKET WAS ISSUED THAT DAY BY A PIG.

WHEN HAS IT EVER BEEN AGAINST THE LAW TO "ACT LIKE A LOW LIFE." IT'S PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT MAKE THESE CORRUPTED PIGS FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO WHAT THEY DO. EVENTUALLY YOU WILL BE VICTIMIZED TOO BY "AUTHORITY" AND YOU WILL SEE THE TRUTH. YOU PROBABLY WATCH "LAW AND ORDER" EVERY DAY AND BELIEVE THAT THAT'S HOW POLICE REALLY CONDUCT THEMSELVES. WAKE THE FUCK UP AND SNAP OUT OF YOUR SPELL. IN THE REAL WORLD THE NYPD AND OTHER POLICE ORGANIZATIONS ARE TERRORIZING BLACKS.

I HAVE SUED NYPD MORE THAN ONCE....I FIT THE "PROFILE" OF A HOODLUM. THEY ARE ALWAYS IN FOR A SURPRISE WHEN THEY BUMP HEADS WITH ME. I HAVE WHITE FRIENDS THAT DO DRUGS THAT SAY THEY'RE LET LOOSE WHEN THEY GET CAUGHT COPPING THEIR PRODUCT. I HAVE COP FRIENDS WHO HAVE BEEN PULLED OFF THE STREET FOR NOT TAKING PART IN THE CORRUPTION. NYPD IS THE BIGGEST ORGANIZATION OF PUSSIES BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO GO AGAINST REAL CRIMINALS...THE DRUG DEALERS, THE THEIVES, THE KILLERS, THE GANGS.

@JODY25ABLE.....YOU GOT TO BE THE MOST IGNORANT SON OF A BITCH WALKING THE FACE OF THE EARTH. NYPD HAS PROVEN THEMSELVES TO BE A CORRUPT ORGANIZATION ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THE YOUNG BLACK MEN WERE ACTING ON THAT MORNING SO STICK TO THE FACTS. THE FACTS ARE THAT THEY WERE UNARMED. THE FACTS ARE THAT 50 SHOTS WERE FIRED AND ONE OFFICER EVEN RELOADED. EVERYBODY IN NYC KNOWS THAT POLICE NEVER IDENTIFY THEMSELVES OR READ YOU YOUR RIGHTS.
