Opdyke faces up to 100 years; McAlpin, up to 90 years; Hartfield and Middleton, up to 80 years each."* For those questioning the racial element of this case keep in mind that while the officers were torturing the men, they hurled racial slurs at them and *told them to go back to quote, "the other side of the Pearl River."* It is entirely possible the motive didnt include any personal connections but a commentator who works in dispatch in a nearby area wrote *"I can't confirm for certain but I've heard from a couple of officers where I work that the girl was the daughter of a higher ranking officer that wasn't too fond of the idea of his little girl being with a black man.* There's a lot of things I'm not particularly privy to since I work for a state level agency and this happened with a city one.

yeah police won't but anyone who's been arrested/convicted due to these officers their attorneys now have cause to reopen their case. Whether they'll get off or not will vary case by case, but their actions can potentially lead to a lot of people getting their sentences reversed. Even if they're actually not innocent. This type of behavior just leads to a waste in tax dollars, a waste in everyone's time and effort and enables real criminals to be back on the street (along with any false convictions).

I was born and raised in Jackson, MS. My dad taught me when I got my driver’s license to stay out of Rankin and Madison County especially at night. He said if I do so happen to pass through to be sure I’m not acting a fool and abide by the law. This shit right here hits home. I’ve never had an issue with the police but what these criminals did to those victims is utterly disgusting.

I studied for a short period in Jackson MS back in the 90's. I befriended a female work colleague, who was college student at Millsaps. My relatives, south of Jackson, advised me not to get involved with her (she was white) because it would get noticed by the wrong kind of whites. She was heartbroken and upset when I called off our budding relationship. But, it's long been known to be VERY careful, if you're a Black man, congregating with a white woman in Mississippi. Especially if she's viewed by Whites as a "good girl." You have a target 🎯 on your back then and now.

💯 % true, military personnel are held to a higher standard of the law, so should police officers. Any government official should be held to higher standards. Every single government employee in the USA has sign paperwork taking an oath to uphold and defend the US Constitution. When they break those oaths they are becoming the domestic enemy's they swear to defend against. Many of these government official's believe they do not swear an oath but it is required by every single person, no matter the job. They could be a janitor and they are still required to sign these oaths. But because the vast majority of people do not read their on-boarding paperwork they have absolutely no idea they signed this oath. So fucking sad, and even worse they would willingly break their oaths or not even understand what they signed. Yet, as citizens the government uses "ignorance of the law, does not protect you from breaking the law." All while government employees break the law daily and absolutely nothing happens to them. So much for a government of the people, for the people, and by the people.

This is the exact kind of story that they want to push as it aligns with the narrative they're pushing. These heinous cases don't stay in the public discourse as long though, because everyone agrees that it was bad and that's that. The more morally gray cases keep people interested for longer because different groups keep talking about it/looking up details while they debate it back and forth, and of course the media will continue to give updates to things that people are talking about.

Even after all this there's no way their superiors didn't know about this and other things happening in their department.

These cops where not human just monsters. And to think we paid our tax money to them to enforce the laws. Thats got to be the most disturbing thing about this. Crazy how did they pass the physiological test? I believe the whole department should be under investigation.

@bighorse215 You can own factories in another nation... but as you said, they would have to adhere to the labor laws of the country of origin as well as the country you are building them in... So unless I'm misunderstanding or you unintentionally contradicted yourself in a way you didn't mean, that is that. As for the overall idea... how does that disprove what I said? If you contract out labor to sweatshops, you are screwing your local population of jobs and may be screwing the population of the nation you are going to, depending on how you look at it. You could see it as bringing money into a poor country, but if that is the goal, then you would use your own countries standards. They are doing it purely to save on labor costs and don't seem to care about trying to improve the circumstances even over time. They are leaving that to locals and the local governments to take care of when they could potentially have a bigger impact. This is also shown by them moving their contracts out of China as things started getting more expensive due to a rise in standard of living in part due to this same practice. So I reiterate, I don't see how what you said disproves what I said or removes the meaning behind it.

A commenter on this video intelligently pointed out something I notice, and that is the mainstream media tends to avoid clear-cut cases of blatant anti-Black racism and terrorism whether by law enforcement or civilians. Instead the mainstream media will usually cover cases instead that are easy to formulate speculation and polarization. They clearly don't care about being a part of the solution but more to sensationalize. The Vauhxx Booker story is another example of very little media attention.

There’s a classic video of a black guy from St. Louis who was working with police to get his life back on track instead of staying in the streets. The cops pulled up to him, he voluntarily got in the squad car with them being handcuffed to make it look like he was arrested but he recorded the conversation on his phone. They essentially told him that if he didn’t tell them who did a certain crime they were trying to solve they would make up a story and plant a gun on him. A gun the police already had but not anyone to connect it to. Pretty sure if you search “St Louis man records cops trying to plant gun” you’ll find it.

The fact that they gave themselves a group name in honor or the atrocities they were doing is infuriating

This just highlights how little oversight there is when it comes to the judicial process. Like the story that Philip DeFranco covered today, Dec 19th, about the woman in New York who defended herself from her abusive drunk boyfriend who was trying to steal money from her. The cop arrested her then lied in her report that the woman she arrested confessed to stabbing him when that wasn’t the case and the body cam proved it, and the woman was charged for 2nd degree murder.

I'm sure this isn't isolated, investigate the entire department!

Living in rankin county Mississippi a large part of my life I promise you this is nothing. This has been going on for years and most Rankin County officers are just like this. I’ve been pulled over countless times. One time they got me out my car, walked the dog through the mud and then walked that dog through my entire car, then they just let me go…. This is normal to the black community in rankin county. I spent a month in jail just to go to court, get found not guilty, and didn’t even get so much as an apology after they picked me up from my home.

All of their past arrest and traffic stops will hopefully get investigated since they lost all credibility as peace officers. Maybe more things will come up and they'll get more time.

In the 70's, my sister saw a police throw a bag of weed into our brother-in-law's car while he was be harassed by police. My sister yelled, "You threw that bag into the car!" Since my sister saw the plant, my brother-in-law was let go. In the 80's, a friend was being harassed/handcuffed by a police. Another officer patrolling the area, who happened to be black & knew my friend, told the white officer to leave him alone. My friend was in his 30's when he told me this story & said he knows for sure if the other officer had not come by & saw what was going on, he would have gone to jail & it would have probably ended his life! This all happened in California. It's nation-wide. Mississippi is the norm not the exception, and all crooked, cowardly sheriffs nation-wide need to be held accountable just like their warped, demented, evil officers who they let get away with these heinous crimes against innocent citizens of this country.

Think about how hard it would be to find 6+ people at your small town workplace who are down for such evil acts, who have no conscience, yet you somehow trust them to keep your evil secret. Guess thats what blackmail and threats are for. Those officers are pure evil, but id be more concerned about their immediate superiors/people who hired them. Them pleading guilty, to me, sounds more like they were told "you guys fucked this one up, so you better plead guilty or else we'll be coming for your families." Seems like theres a lot more to this story and someone doesnt want people looking for answers any deeper than at the feet of those 6 officers.

I just got done reading "Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How it Changes Us," by Brian Klaas. In one chapter he speaks at length about the kinds of people who are attracted to the job of police officer. Some of it has to do with how the jobs are marketed, but a lot has to do with how people are. In one case, a police department in Alaska ended up hiring several ex-cons. Even the chief was an ex-con. You can imagine what type of "justice" these guys laid out to the public under their care.

I was fulling expecting the reason to be stupid, but hearing it makes me sad. My heart goes out to these victims, thanks for showing lights on these things guys. It's not "good news" but sometimes its important to shed light on these situations so we can feel the gravity of them.
