*In New York, the high profile Sean Bell police-involved shooting trial has come to an end.

A judge has acquitted three NYPD detectives of all charges in the shooting death of 23-year-old Bell on Friday.

In November of 2006, Bell was gunned down in a hail of 50 bullets outside a Queens strip club on what would have been his wedding day.

Justice Arthur Cooperman delivered the verdict in a Queens courtroom packed with spectators, including victim Bell's fiancee and parents, as at least 200 people gathered outside the building, reports CBS 2.

The highly anticipated verdict, which many see as holding far-reaching social ramifications for New York City and its police force, comes after seven weeks worth of testimony without a jury.

Detectives Gescard Isnora, 29, and Michael Oliver, 36, faced up to 25 years behind bars for manslaughter charges, while Det. Marc Cooper, 40, faced a year in jail on reckless endangerment charges.

One of Bell's children began crying shortly before the verdict was read, and Cooperman asked for the child to be removed before he read the verdict.

Meanwhile, outside the courtroom, the NYPD let it be known that they were ready for any kind of negative response to the verdict.

"We certainly have no reason to expect violence," NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly said Thursday. "There's been many demonstrations, memorials, marches since the incident took place. We've done things that the public would expect us to do to prepare for any contingency."
