[00:00:00]Did you know that 96 people were slowly crushed to death while police officers watched and did nothing? April 15th, 1989, Hillsborough Stadium, Liverpool versus Nottingham Forest. Thousands of fans were packed outside the gates. The crowd was getting dangerous. Police opened the exit gates to relieve the pressure, but then they made a fatal mistake. They directed 2,000 people straight into sections that were already completely full. Fans at the front were pressed against metal barriers. They couldn't move. They couldn't breathe.

[00:00:31]For 6 minutes, people screamed for help while being crushed alive. Police thought it was just rowdy fans acting up. They didn't realize people were dying right in front of them. 96 people lost their lives that day, but the real horror came after. For 30 years, police blamed drunk fans. They fabricated evidence. They destroyed witness statements. Families fought for decades to prove their loved ones weren't hooligans. Recently released documents revealed the truth. A massive cover-up to protect incompetent commanders. The Hillsborough disaster wasn't just a tragedy. It was institutional murder followed by decades of lies.
