Akai Gurley’s Killer Will Not Face Jail Time After “accidentally” shooting Akai Gurley as he walked home — simply because he couldn’t see who was coming around the corner — a judge has ruled that convicted killer Peter Liang will not face any prison time. Instead, Liang was sentenced to six months house arrest, 500 hours of community service and five years’ probation. Via NYDN : The rookie cop convicted of killing an unarmed black man in the stairwell of a Brooklyn housing project won’t spend even one night in jail for the crime. “This is bull—-! The system is f—ed up,” one spectator snapped after Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun sentenced Peter Liang to five years’ probation and 800 hours of community service for the fatal shooting of Akai Gurley. “Akai’s life doesn’t matter,” Gurley’s aunt, Hertencia Petersen, fumed. “Another black man has been murdered by the hands of the Police Department. And the officer is not being held accountable.” Outside the courthouse, scores of angry protesters chanted “The whole damn system is guilty as hell!” At the same time, about 100 of the cop supporters yelled “Justice for Liang!” The mild-mannered Liang showed little emotion when he learned his fate – or when he pleaded his case to the judge, saying he regretted the “devastation” he caused when his gun went off in the dimly lit stairwell. “I was in shock. I could barely breathe. The shot was accidental, but someone was dead,” he said. “My life is forever changed. I hope I have a chance to rebuild it.” So an officer can shoot a Black man dead for simply walking home to his own apartment and face not a single day of jail time? Clearly it is open season on African Americans as far as the police force is concerned… NYDN

Three More Men Accuse Afrika Bambaataa Of Sexual Abuse After an explosive allegation that Afrika Bambaataa repeatedly sexually abused a man when he was a young boy, three more men have stepped forward with their own stories accusing him of sexual misconduct when they were children . Each man once thought they were the sole victim…but the news breaking inspired each to come forward… Via NYDN : Hassan Campbell and several other men told The News last week that they were sexually abused by Bambaataa, the South Bronx hip-hop pioneer whose 1982 hit “Planet Rock” helped turn rap music into an international phenomenon. The men stepped forward after The News published a story last Sunday about former music industry executive and Democratic Party activist Ronald Savage, who claims Bambaataa abused him at least five times in 1980, inflicting deep emotional wounds. “I know what Ronald Savage is saying is true because he did it to me,” said a 50-year-old New York man who requested anonymity. “I have never spoken to anybody about this and when I did, I said ‘Holy s—, they finally caught up to him.’” While Afrika and his Zulu Nation organization insist that these allegations are all part of plot by the US Government to discredit him and his work, more men — choosing to remain anonymous — corroborate the claims with stories of their own: A 51-year-old former New Yorker named Troy, who asked that his last name not be used in this story, told The News Bambaataa abused him, too. “I still have a lot of anger about this,” said Troy, who lives in North Carolina. “I’ve been dealing with this for years. It’s a shame this didn’t come out earlier.” Campbell and Bambaataa’s other accusers all say the music star showed them pornographic pictures or videos and then performed oral sex on them. “He showed me a book with a picture of a penis and said, ‘You don’t have to be gay for me to suck your d—,” Troy said. SMH. This situation is looking very “Cosby-ish” right now. We wonder how many more men will come forward to tell their own stories of abuse from Afrika… WENN
