NYPD's OWN TRAYVON MARTIN CASE: MURDER OF A WHISTLE BLOWER
There are hundreds of articles about the Trayvon Martin tragedy. The outrage is not because a white man killed a black man -- but because the Sanford police department covered up the murder.
- What if the police department were the NYPD?
- What if the victim had been kidnapped and threatened with death by NYPD detectives?
- What if the victim requested protection form the FBI?
- What if the victim posted a Youtube video NAMING the people who were going to kill him?
- What if the victim was then bludgeoned to death on a deserted street, miles from his home?
- What if the ER doctor lied about the cause of death, claiming the victim died of an “aneurism” with "no trauma".
- What if NYPD detectives illegally removed the body from the hospital hours after death and sent it to the morgue for cremation, claiming claiming "natural death".
- What if the Medical Examiner contradicted the NYPD and the ER and ruled the cause of death “Blunt force trauma with skull fractures and brain injuries” & the manner of death "suspicious".
- What if the NYPD denied all FOIL requests for information?
- What if THEN - as in the Trayvon Martin case - the police refused to investigate?
Those are the precise circumstances of the death of corruption whistleblower Sunny Sheu, yet not ONE mainstream media venue has reported this story.
