Amadou Diallo was only 22 years old when police targeted him outside his apartment and shot at him 41 times. He was struck 19 times and tragically died as a result of his injuries. The Bronx, New York was outraged and called for justice. 


The four police officers that were involved were brought to trial for the murder of Amadou  but was justice served? 


In this 1 part episode we discuss who Amadou really was, police brutality, racial profiling, the injustice of the police department.
