The shooting of Timothy Stansbury occurred in New York City on January 24,
2004. Stansbury was an unarmed 19-year-old New York City man who was shot
and killed by New York Police Department Officer Richard S. Neri Jr. on
January 24, 2004. Officer Neri and a partner were patrolling the rooftop of
a housing project in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn at
about 1 a.m. Officer Neri, with his gun drawn, approached a rooftop door to
check the stairway inside. Neri testified to a Brooklyn grand jury that he
fired his standard Glock 19 pistol unintentionally when he was startled as
Stansbury pushed open the rooftop door. Stansbury, a resident of an
adjoining building, died from one shot in the chest. The grand jury found
the shooting to be accidental.[1]
On February 17, 2004 after nearly a month of investigation, the grand jury
declined to indict Officer Neri on charges of criminally negligent homicide
and manslaughter, finding instead the shooting to be accidental. Mayor Mike
Bloomberg who like Kelly had not been overtly supportive of Officer Neri
said: Although the death of Timothy Stansbury was a heartbreaking tragedy, a
grand jury today decided that Officer Neri's actions were not criminal. The
Police Department will conduct a review of the case to determine the
appropriate course of action."[5]
