ALBANY, N.Y. — Parole officials in New York state are being urged to deny the release of a former Black Panther convicted in the deaths of two New York City police officers in 1971.

Sen. Patrick Gallivan of Erie County and other GOP lawmakers held a press conference Tuesday to urge New Yorkers to sign a petition opposing the release of Herman Bell, who has a hearing before the state's parole board next month. Bell's previous requests for release have been rejected seven times.

Bell, now 70, was one of three men convicted of murder for the killings of officers Joseph Piagentini and Waverly Jones in a Harlem housing complex. The officers were lured to the building by a bogus 911 call. Jones was shot in the head and died instantly.

"Officer Piagentini was made to beg for his life and was shot 22 times," said Gallivan, a former Erie County sheriff.

Bell argues he has reformed during his decades in prison and is no longer a threat. On his internet blog, Bell writes that he regrets the loss of life during the "turbulent times" of the 1960s and '70s.

"Many people from those days have moved on, have been forgiven, have been allowed to go on and live productive lives (while others were sent to prison and are still carrying that burden)," he wrote. "The past is behind me now, and I wish to move on."

EDITOR’S NOTE: Three things to remember.

First, The Panthers were not the ‘community activists’ historical revisionists would now have us believe. The Black Panther Party was founded by prison inmates in San Quentin prison to ‘protect’ blacks from the police. On the outside, the murderous Panthers were involved in a slew of bank robberies and killings of cops.

Then there was Beyone’s shameful half-time performance at the 2016 Super Bowl 50 in which she saluted the Black Panthers.

And at last month’s Grammy Awards, Beyonce showed off her support for the cop killers by wearing Black Panther earrings and a Black Panther clutch. That’s in your fucking faces, you racist cops!
