NYPD Officer Who Killed Amadou Diallo Promoted To Sergeant

Nearly seventeen years after an unarmed Amadou Diallo was killed by NYPD officers, one of the four cops involved in his death has copped a promotion. Kenneth Boss, the last of the four still employed with the NYPD, was promoted to sergeant Thursday (Dec. 17), a move that’s drawing criticism from Diallo’s mother.
