What we know about Tyre Nichols' death after Memphis police traffic stopMemphis Police Chief Cerelyn Davis said five police officers who were fired last week were found to be 'directly responsible' for the 'physical abuse' of Tyre Nichols. I have seen the video. You will understand why they had to arrest them before the video hits. The city may not riot tonight but it still may at the absurdness of the heinous acts. Call it murder! Nothing new, the bastards feel untouchable, regardless of the color of their skin. They kill people and they disappear the bodies( with no consequences )We always have to be alert. When the police stop you call a member of your family, and let them know, just in case.
