Bashir Hameed (born James D. York on December 1, 1940; died August 30, 2008) was a member of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army. Hameed was convicted of the murder of New York City police officer John Scarangella, and the attempted murder of Scarangella's partner, Officer Richard Rainey.

Hameed and his co-defendant were both convicted of murder, and Hameed was given a sentence of 25 years to life. He died while serving this sentence at the Great Meadow Correctional Facility in Comstock, New York.
