Two taxpayer-funded New York defense attorneys have sparked outrage after appearing in an online rap video that urges black people to kill police officers - and allowing it to be filmed in their offices. The video, dubbed 'Hands Up', shows black men holding guns to the head of a white actor dressed as an NYPD cop, and features the lyric: 'For Mike Brown and Sean Bell, a cop got to get killed'. It also depicts a grief-stricken mother walking into The Bronx Defenders's offices on 161st Street, where she is comforted by an attorney. Another lawyer at the firm features later in the footage.
