Despite the body-cam footage showing cops viciously assaulting Tyre Nichols, Fox News host Jesse Watters says he’ll have to wait for the toxicology report.

The footage shows the cops pull Nichols over for a traffic stop before aggressively tossing him on the pavement as they shout threats and draw their guns.

More footage shows cops repeatedly punching him in the head before pepper spraying him as he desperately called out for his mother.“We don’t know if this guy was on something,” Watters said. “And we don’t have an autopsy from the city, an official autopsy. Immediately, you know, I didn’t see any death blows. Maybe it was an accumulation of blunt force trauma to the head.”

Stanton replied that he had not seen any officers “stomping” on Nichols’ head or “kicking him in the face” in the footage. But the footage did clearly show two officers hold Nichols down while a third walked up and kicked him in the head. “Does it bother you that you don't have the cops’ perspective at all?” he said. “It looks overwhelming, I get it. But don't we need both sides?”” after the FBI raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate—is now singing a different tune, despite Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn Davis denouncing their actions as “heinous, reckless and inhumane.”

FYI his Guest Stanton is a white supremacist with a long, long history of racist comments. Also his NYPDnews record is inflated Santos4Congress style!

Sure he wasn't one of them sitting in the cheering section, he's that gross and pathetic!

if you magnified Watters brains 100X they'd roll around like 2 bee bees in a boxcar

I wonder if he thinks he... could survive a beating like that ? Shocks the conscious.

he wants to be able to say they back the blue.i'm curious why they haven't said that yet..hmm i wonder why

FoxNews The Report is in; Jesse Watters is toxic.

These officers absolutely could have hand cuffed this guy without beating him up and the poor guy dieing later this was total BULL SHIT from what I've seen these officers were at fault 100 percent

Who the he'll is Jesse Watters? Not sure that his opinion is relevant...here or anywhere.

Fox poop 💩

sunrainsunrain Maybe they'll find a little THC like 90% of people his age in America? Jesse Waters is a piece of s***.

I guess he didn't see the image of Tyre in the hospital either.

His own, I presume?

Because Watters is a piece of 💩

He works for white people he says how white people feel with a black face so it doesn't sound racist

FINALLY PLEASE, A TOX TEST FOR EVERY MASS SHOOTER TOO. I think this guy was on something. GOOD LUCK 😊🇺🇸🙋‍♀️

Indifference to human life is on brand for Fox News now. It’s has devolved into this.

The media has reported that he bled to death. He actually died the night of the beating, but was kept on a respirator. A blow to spleen or liver could cause fatal bleeding. No need to be kicked in the head. The fact that they didn’t take him to the ER was a huge contribution.

mcford77 No. Words.

jengrimes8 Wow and he said that without his hood on !

Doesn't matter what the toxicology report says or doesn't say. The man didn't deserve to die.

The x policemen who did this crime need to be found guilty. The video leaves no doubt. But I must say I would also like to know if the victim had drugs in him. Maybe IF he did, it will show a reason way he was so uncooperative. It wont change the facts. They are guilty.

Just more news from Bizarro world

The officers were indicating (in the vid) despite the beating, they don't know how Nichols managed to keep struggling. Meaning that he was on drugs. So, Jesse is trying to give the officers a way out knowing the toxicology report might turn up positive.

And Jesse is an expert on cause of death because?

This is a reminder that Watters admitted to letting the air out of the tires of intern he wanted to date; like a stalker.

Does JesseBWatters do this on purpose? Does he crave negative attention? How anyone could sit at the table with him is beyond comprehension. cc: danaPerino JudgeJeanine GeraldoRivera greggutfeld JessicaTarlov .

👀

Such a grotesque spin on the story. It took 3 days for Tyre to die from his injuries. Was that not fast enough for Jesse Watters?

Jesse could let Tucker kick and punch his face 50 times . Let us know how it turns out .

Jesse Watters is the embodiment of juvenile snarky hate for profit.

Should be charged as accomplice after the fact

Jesse I would not have done that. Not smart or enlightening.

Jesse Watters, most notably, is not a trauma surgeon, an intensivist, nor a toxicologist. Probably pretty key to your story. But appreciate that (finally) some media outlets are calling out the lying.

It's because TyreNichols died several days later, JesseBWatters.

Fox 'News' is faux news.

What a foul critter Jesse shows himself to be.

So, let's pretend that this 29 year old was imminently on his way to death as Mr. Watters would like us to think - is this unquestionable brutality for no reason ok because he was so close to death because of whatever Mr. Watters thinks? Such fucn devils.

'death blows' aren't even a requirement for 2nd degree murder in Memphis. but we can safely say anytime a cop breaks his asp on a someone's face, 'death blows' were intended.

Waters never said that.

Maybe Waters should volunteer to let people try out those punches and kicks on him! See how.long he lasts! What a douchebag!

A man is dead. Five officers killed him. There isn't another side.

when the rent was due, Jesse went TheFive TheFive MemphisFive MemphisPolice JesseWattersPrimetime FoxNews

The Memphis police chief stated they could find nothing on the cameras to justify the initial stop. He was innocent. This man lost his life for nothing. They didn’t have to do this. My heart aches for his family.

They are so hopeful there were drugs in his system…

Why would a 29 yr. old man with a 4 yr. old child be crying for his mom? Was he high or something? Waiting for toxicology results.

HUH Why ? They beat him to death, what’s the report gonna show How on earth can fox ppl go home, hug their kids & think they’ve done a good job? HOW?

FUGG FoxNews JesseWatters!!

Where in God’s name do they spawn the human waist that Fox News employs?!

Sicko

😮😞

that was on air before video was released not defending but your tweet is misleading

I have the report now. Fox News is 💯 percent toxic. Repeated use causes brain death and heart atrophy.

FoxNews is an existential threat. Disgusting and sick!!

'Fox News host' is as low as you can slither.

His own?

Piglet

What more is there to know that Tyre was murdered? After all, there was literally nothing he could have done that would have changed the outcome.

Absolutely disgusting.

Remind them that it’s law enforcement officers that have charged five of those cops with second degree murder among other charges. Supporting LE means ensuring they have public trust and NOT defending police brutality.

Outrageous!

christo-white fascist nazi says what?

Jesse Waters is a poopie.

Jesse Waters can go fuck himself. Thanks.

Wrong is wrong no matter the race. I am so disappointed. What the heck were they thinking 😔 What goes through people's minds, to think this is ok? This is what we hear gangs doing. Black cops is what we need, there’s no need to fire them and charge them all with murder. They made a mistake bruh but we need their diversity anyways so why not just keep ‘em 👍
