Pictures From The Shannon Street Massacre Crime Scene
January 13, 2008 marks the 25th anniversary of the Shannon Street Massacre. It was 25 year ago that 8 men died in a house on Shannon Street in the North Memphis Hyde Park neighborhood. The eight deaths include that of Memphis Police Officer Robert Hester; whose death is equally as tragic. However it was the senseless killing of those seven young men by the special tactics unit of the Memphis Police Department that deserves special attention on this anniversary. You can read more about this case from a NY Times article that was published around the time it happened. Here is a small excerpt from it, as well as link to read more about the incident. Quote:

Re: Pictures From The Shannon Street Massacre Crime Scene
was the cop killed by friendly fire? I assume he wasn't killed by one of the house occupants since "massacre" implies they were unarmed

There is the story. The blacks who killed the cops deserve no honor. This story was buried until now as back then, when it happened, there would have been a civil war in Memphis if the facts were released. |

Uh sensless? Puhlease!! You must not know what really happened then I guess. Those officers ( or that officer not sure if it was 1 or 2 ) were tortured by those sick "innocent" people. Quote:

Re: Pictures From The Shannon Street Massacre Crime Scene
Well I guess I should have read farther. There's the true story, some of it. There was no bomb. The home was raided in the end by officers and the hostage takers were shot and killed. The standoff lasted a day and a half. Thanks for this info. Quote:
