Tyre Nichols’s family attorneys question white officer’s discipline after Nichols’s deathThe other five officers, who are all Black, have been fired and charged with second-degree murder among other offenses, which has raised more questions for the department about their transparency and alludes to the possible racial dynamics in this case. Is Hemphill transgender? Asking for a friend. Culture is a big part of the problem. If you just point the finger at the police, then you are half wrong. From my experience, many young people and especially black males have a hard time complying with police, who are human. If someone doesnt listen to you, then what do you do?

Memphis police edited portions of the released body camera footage. Why is it that the black cop's are the only ones getting in trouble when a white cop was there tasering him? 🚫 They forgot to mention that he then takes off on foot, evading arrest.
