A friend consoles a Woman In Mourning during a rally against police brutality.
The four white policemen who fired 41 bullets at the young African immigrant; 19 hit their mark. Prosecutors brought six alternative charges against each of the cops; none of them stuck- neither counts of murder, nor the two manslaughter; not homicide, not reckless endangerment.

About 300 people gathered near the United Nations for a prayer vigil led by the Rev. Al Sharpton seeking to bring the case to the attention of the international community. Some in the crowd wore signs reading:
