May 20, 2008 --

Seven police officers involved with the Sean Bell shooting were slapped with internal NYPD disciplinary charges, The Post has learned.

The charges, which could lead to loss-of-pay, suspension or dismissal, come nearly a month after a Queens judge acquitted three officers of manslaughter charges stemming from the November 2006 shooting that killed Bell on his wedding day and injured his two friends, sources said.

Unfortunately, i had a feeling that this was bound to happen. Hopefully the Union steps up.

It's not right, but soooooo typical of New York City. As a civilian employee, for 35 years I know how thy operate, and the Uniformed Services have it worse.

This should come as no surprise to anyone. As soon as the verdict was announced, the media was reporting that Dept. and Federal charges, as well as, civil charges would be filed. I hope that in the future, when a LEO is killed, the same "justice" applies.
