Cousin of Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes Vivian Meneses reacts as she leaves the Oval cricket ground where the inquest into the death of de Menezes is held in London, Thursday, Dec. 4, 2008. De Menezes was shot dead by British police during an anti-terror operation in July 2005. A jury began its deliberations Thursday at an inquest into the death of an unarmed Brazilian man who was shot dead in London by police who mistook him for a suicide bomber. The family of Jean Charles de Menezes staged a protest just before the jury retired. Three of the dead man's cousins stood up unveiling T-shirts with the message "Your legal right to decide _ unlawful killing verdict," before leaving the courtroom. The family was angered by coroner Michael Wright's instructions to the jury earlier this week that the evidence does not support a verdict of unlawful killing in the July 2005 shooting. He said jurors could only return a verdict of lawful killing or an open verdict, which means they reached no conclusion.
