The Murder of Fred Hampton
From IMDB, we quote:
"Fred Hampton, founder of the Illinois chapter of the Black
Panther Party for Self-Defense, was assassinated by a special
unit of the Chicago Police Department on December 4th, 1969
as he lay face down in bed. He was 21 years old when he was
murdered. The police fired 99 unanswered shots into his apartment,
wounding Fred as he slept. Apparently drugged by an informant,
Hampton was unable to awaken. After the raid the police put
two more shots into Hampton's head and said 'Now he's good and
dead.'
This film follows the last year or so of Fred's life and the
investigation immediately following his murder."
