Tyre Nichols' family, attorney Ben Crump speak to reporters after arrest of 5 officers | full video
The family of Tyre Nichols and their attorney, Ben Crump, held a news conference Friday to discuss the charges against the five former police officers involved in Nichols' death in Memphis, Tennessee. This comes hours before the expected release of bodycam footage showing the Jan. 7 traffic stop. The family said an independent autopsy shows Nichols suffered "extensive bleeding caused by a severe beating."

Why won’t anyone talk about dealing with the source of the problem? Why is everyone afraid to talk about requiring police to carry their own individual liability / malfeasance insurance. If your behavior history is such that you can’t be insured, then you can’t work as a police officer. It’s just that simple. Petition your local and state government to implement this policy. Write and call your Congressman and Senators and tell them to create and implement this policy.

The TN Police Chief said she saw NO reason why Tyree was pulled over from the video. According to the Chief there was no reason he was pulled over except to harass him.

These are last & evil days we are living in. We continue to say the training is the problem but the Bible tells us what the real problem is. The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? (Jeremiah 17-9-10} The world is becoming more godless with dark hearts and we see the results. Officers place their hands on a bible for swearing in, but many do not read nor do they have a personally relationship with the God of the bible for guidance. We must continue to pray for God to send peace officers who will protect and serve. My condolences and may God's peace rest on the family.

Are you a homeowner or a tax payer? Look around your community. Are your streets being properly maintained? Are your schools lacking? Do you have clean and well maintained Parkers? The money used to maintain these facilities come from the same piggy bank your city uses to settle law suits of millions of dollars for claims created by police misconduct and police malfeasance. If police officers were required to carry their own liability / malfeasance insurance, these settlement would not affect your local city budgets. Also, it would make it virtually impossible for these bad actors to become officers of the law. 👮

The solid truth is police will never reform. The reason, they are taught to behave lawless while policing. We have auditor's in every state,why not make it a law,that a citizen,with no beholding to police ride with each officer. There has to be a away to keep police officer's in checked. A good conversation!! I must say that he was a mama's boy. I am one,and we love our mother's,they are our world. I was afraid i would die in Vietnam,but i was worried,how bad she would be effected.
Peace be with the family especially the the mothers really grieving 🤣
let these officers get to jail and get the same treatment they gave this young man. Hope the prisoners are linining up for them. see how big they feel when they are jail. can't understand why they are out on bail they should be in jail until they go to trial. 2 officer lawyers are saying they are going to plead not guilty. how can you plead not guilty when video v cv learly shows you laughing and beating the man. i like to know why the parmmefocs did not stop this happening they should by smoking watching it happpwn the should be held accountable .

It’s real sad that their training is being used as an excuse for their barbaric crime. Bottom line, it doesn’t matter how much training these individual received they will still commit the crime, meaning, you can tell the individual not to do it, they will still do it, just ask any military in leadership, how hard it is to keep their soldiers off trouble. Despite all the mandatory briefing and classes soldiers endured, they still get themselves on a bind. Bad evil minded people exist.

So to all protesters.... " Peace Be Still ". Rest well Tyre your sacrifice will save a lot of young black men and women. So to my black people let's keep on the whole armor of God... there's a lot of work to do and a long road ahead. Be blessed and stay prayed up.

Those Criminal cops are such a Grave Disgrace to themselves and to society. They should be placed in Prison for the rest of their miserable lives. They are criminals wearing a badge as protectors of citizens but they are the criminals that society should be protected from. This really breaks my heart. No one should be murdered like this and these so called cops disrespect their badge and their community. May Tyre’s Wonderful and Lovely Soul Rest in Perfect Peace. My Deepest Condolences goes out to His Mother, Father and Family 💙🙏💙🙏🙏🙏

I'm glad he mentioned the difference between the black officers and the white officers. He was absolutely right. If they can move that swiftly when black officers commit a crime against a citizen, then they can certainly move that swiftly when white officers commit a crime against a citizen.
