By Dean Meminger
After years of not wanting to talk publicly about being shot multiple times by police, one survivor says now is the right time because of the Eric Garner case. In an exclusive sit-down interview with NY1 criminal justice reporter Dean Meminger, Joseph Guzman talks about the pain of the Sean Bell shooting and his hopes for the future.
Joseph Guzman is a survivor of one of the most controversial NYPD shootings in recent city history.
“I was shot 16 times in the car with Sean Bell,” he says.
