The Metropolitan Police have found guilty of endangering the public* in the shooting death of the (completely innocent) Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes. The force has been fined £175,000 and will also have to pay another £385,000 in costs. Mr. de Menezes was shot five times in the head with hollow point ammunition which are generally illegal.
