@spt188 shawn bell was the man in new york who got killed by the police the day before he was sappose to get married.he was unarmed but was shot multiple times and nothing happened to the police who killed him

@spt188 from what I've seen in other shows Sean Bell and two others were shot 50 times between them by police, on the night of his bachelor party, and they were unarmed. The why is unclear, cops thought someone had a gun but the police reasoning has been very heavily criticized. The police officers were later acquitted. :(

[spt188]
