Protests begin in Memphis after 'sickening' footage released of the fatal beating of black man Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police

Tyre Nichols, 29, died in hospital on January 10, three days after being pulled over by police for alleged reckless driving in Memphis.

There is around an hour of footage, including several minutes of the father-of-one being beaten by the five officers. During a live interview on Friday morning, Ms David said: “I was in law enforcement during the Rodney King incident and it’s very much aligned with that type of behavior … sort of groupthink. I would say it’s about the same if not worse.”

“They have brought shame to their own families. They brought shame to the black community. I just feel sorry for them. I really do,” she said.

Joe Biden calls parents of Tyre Nichols, black man in US killed by, with footage of fatal beating set to be releasedJoe Biden has called the parents of a black American man who was killed by the police, with footage of his fatal beating set to be released on Friday night. Black on Black violence is really bad there. At the hands of black cops (5 out of 5). Seems relevant if you mention the race of the victim... lbc why is his colour relevant but that of the perpetrators are not in your headline. You're pushing this narrative on all news broadcasts this morning. Colour is completely irrelevant in this desperately awful case, except for nauseous clickbaiting of course.
