Back To The Killing Fields Of New York
Officer in Diallo Shooting Sues to Return to Duty
Here in New York, one of the four police officers involved the fatal shooting of Amadou Diallo has filed suit against the New York Police Department to return him to active duty. Kenneth Boss says he has been effectively blocked since his acquittal and his time served as a Marine in the Iraq war. Boss and three other officers were cleared in Diallo’s killing eight years ago. The unarmed Diallo was shot forty-one times.
