Sean Bell Shooting Case
The fiancee of an unarmed man killed by police on his wedding day says "the justice system let me down" after the detectives were acquitted of all charges in his killing. "April 25, 2008: They killed Sean all over again," Nicole Paultre Bell said Saturday to hundreds of people gathered at Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network offices. "That's what it felt like to us."
Paultre Bell said she was let down by the Queens judge's ruling Friday clearing the detectives in the shooting death of 23-year-old Sean Bell and wounding of his two friends.
"I'm still praying for justice," she says, "because it's not over."
