Accidental Turn of Events or Murder? Watch the Video
50 bullets projected into the car of Sean Bell

Young groom to be, 23 year old Queens Father of two Sean Bell, lost his life early Sunday morning while caught in the crossfire of an undercover cop while leaving his bachelor party the day before his wedding.

Eerily reminiscent of the 1999 fatal shooting of the unarmed Amadou Diallo; Bell, also unarmed, was leaving the Kalua Cabaret Strip Club in South Jamaica Queens and was caught in gunfire that lasted just 10 seconds.

The major similarities between the two cases are now sparking outrage and controversy. Back in February of 1999, Amadou Diallo was standing in the foyer of his building while police officers were vigorously searching for a rapist that fit Diallo's description. In the dark hallway the cops yelled to Diallo to put his hands up. A language barrier proved deadly for Diallo as instead of raising his arms, he reached into his pocket to retrieve his wallet for the officers. Upon doing so the police believed he was drawing a weapon. In response, one of the officers shouted "gun" and began to fire. The other officers believing they were being fired upon then opened fire. At the end there were 41 bullets discharged. Similarly there were nearly 50 bullets projected into the car of Sean Bell after the bedlam ensued.

Bell and his cohorts had been outside the club when an undercover cop observed them in a confrontation with another male and female. During the exchange one of the individuals was overheard saying that they were getting a gun from the car. The undercover radioed for back up and then approached the car driven by Bell. An unmarked police car tried to block in Bell's car while one of the undercover officers ran in front of Bell's car to see if there were any weapons inside. Sean Bell proceeded to strike the cop with his car injuring his knee. One of the entourage exited the car and fled the scene. With the undercover still in front of the car, Bell revved the engine as if he was going to accost the officer once again with his vehicle. One of the offices shouted that there was a weapon in the car and began firing into the car. The other cops believing they were being fired upon and responded with a hail of close to 50 bullets. The scene comparable to a combat zone left the two friends wounded and Sean Bell dead.

Both of these incidents happened in a matter of seconds, a barrage of bullets were fired, and involved multiple police in a crisis situation. Did the officers follow procedure to the best of their abilities, or was it murder? You be the judge. To understand how this could happen watch the reenactment of the infamous Amadou Diallo case. Actual court transcripts were used for this production. Learn what really went through the minds of the officers at the time of this confrontation...

  • those cops are full of shit! they were dressed up as gang members. Diallo obviously thought they were muggers following him &he tried to hand over his wallet. they didn't identify themselves. &the imaginary rapist had not struck for over 3 years prior. NYC cops LIE LIE LIE and LIE some more!

  • They were trigger happy. It's sad how people can behave like animals. God will judge them. Everyday will be judged. One day we will all meet our maker.

  • What a Bullshit story! Absolute Rubbish!!!! Tell that fairy tale to your grand children, pigs!

  • Let this video stay. The more they tried to explain and to analyze the situation, the more they exposed their ignorance and abrasiveness. The main culprit was this Caroll guy. His judgement and observation was totally wrong to begin with, and his fatally incorrect identification of a 'gun' nailed the coffin for Mr. Diallo. This guy should have been the one taken off the street instead. An incompetent police was as dangerous as the bad guys to the general public.

  • there are 4 of you, how is one man gonna shoot you all down, how bout shooting the arm that is "alledgedly pulling out the gun," and despite that they all shot, with atleast 1 of them emptying a clip

  • What happened to "Drop your weapon!!!!"?????

    Bastards.......Yah will judge you.

  • mane fu*k these peoples

  • these guys are a bunch of liars...fuck you crackers

  • It is a tradgedy to have these two so-called detectives defend what was outright murder ! They wanted this guy dead. There is always two sides to every story, and then there is the TRUTH !

  • These officers worked for the Street Crimes Unit, which had come under fire for stop and frisking people for no reason. This was another case of that and this time it turned fatal. It was only a matter of time before an innocent person was murdered by the street crimes unit.

  • Actually, harrassing, murdering, or arresting innocent people will not reduce crime rates. It also will not reduce terrorism. These cops are justifying violating people's civil rights even though those tactics have never proven to reduce crime (or terrorism).

  • Well MAYBE Diallo didn't SEE their badges? Or, maybe he MISTOOK THEIR BADGES FOR GUNS OR SOMETHING ELSE?

    If they could mistake a damn wallet for a gun, then why the fuck is it so impossible to believe that MAYBE Diallo couldn't see their badges and therefore wasn't convinced that they were cops? I sure as hell wouldn't have waited around to see what was going to happen if 4 strangers ran up to me, even if they were shouting NYPD if I couldn't see their bagdes clearly.

    Use some logical thinking.
