Justin Bieber DID NOT kill a 7-year-old boy, and there is no such video. These scammers may further try to convince Facebook users by showing a video discussing Justin Bieber arrest for driving under the influence (DUI) in January 2014, which has nothing to do with him being arrested for killing a 7-year-old boy or being involved in an accident.

This is a scam created to trick curious Facebook users into installing a malicious Facebook application and allowing it access to their accounts.

With access to a Facebook user's account, this malicious Facebook application will send itself all of the user's friends, which will only help to spread this scam to other Facebook users.

If you are continually being ask to install a Facebook application, more than likely, it is a malicious application.

If you have already installed or given this malicious Facebook application access to your Facebook account, please remove it. Click here for instructions.
