Family Members Seek Answers for Curtis Good's Death

"One innocent man, 7 bullets, why?"
Six weeks after Curtis Good was shot by a city police officer and died about an hour later, his family and friends have no answers as to what happened.Leon Bradford of Detroit, the older brother of Good, told a crowd of supporters gathered in front of police headquarters last night that the grand jury proceedings scheduled to begin today have been postponed until Oct. 13. The hearings are scheduled to take several weeks.  He said a medical examiner the family used is willing to testify. Bradford addressed a group of about 50 people who had walked shouting "no justice, no peace" from the King Street apartment where his brother was shot to Perth Amboy Police Headquarters on Fayette and Rector streets. The Rev. Henry H. Rodgers of Cathedral International and the Rev. Neva Lawson of First Baptist Church in Woodbridge led the marchers, some of whom wore shirts with a picture of Curtis Good and the words "1 innocent man, 7 bullets, why." According to authorities, police officer Carmen Fazzolari, 45, fired eight shots from his .45-caliber Glock semiautomatic pistol, hitting 41-year-old Good a total of six times after police were called to the King Street apartment around 1:30 a.m. on Aug. 20. Good died about an hour later at the hospital. [more ]
