they are indemnified by the city in criminal&civil matters, but they will have to live with the memories of what happened for the rest of their lives.

the cops could have blocked bell's car in and stood behind there vehicles and told bell and friends to get out , that would have been alot safer then standing in the way of bell's car , the cops would have had cover and more distance especially if they thought there was a gun in play . the fact that 2 cops fired 3 and 4 rounds then stopped , i guess that shows they didn't feel life threating danger anymore , 3rd cop fired 11 rounds and stopped i guess he also didn't feel his life threatened any longer , last cop continued to shoot , ran out of bullets , reloaded , and continued to unload his gun , thats too large of a discrepancy .
living with guilt is a very small price to pay , thats why they don't sentence people to look in the mirror .
everyone , ask yourselves a question : if your friends and or family were in that car and died/got shot , would you still think all the cops are completely innocent ? what if one of the cops continued to fire after everyone else stopped ? what if you were in that car ?
