'Where was the humanity?' asks mother of killed Memphis man | News24

Tyre Nichols died on 10 January after he was allegedly assaulted by five police officers during a traffic stop.

"When my husband and I got to the hospital and I saw my son, he was already gone. They had beat him to a pulp, he had bruises all over him," Wells said through tears. After a chase ensued,"police brutalized him to the point of being unrecognizable," family attorneys Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci said in a statement.The case raised fears of violence across the country amid simmering anger over police mistreatment of African-Americans.

She told CNN her son, while tall, only weighed 150 pounds and questioned why five heavier officers needed to beat him.

Sad but way worse is where is BLM now are the actually discriminating who is allowed and who not allowed to kill people

Wait, so, black cops kill a black guy, and it's the Whites fault? Ok then. 🤣

What do the BLM think about this

It's bad he lost his life at the hand of cops.. it happens much more than you think.. check out YouTube on law enforcement & you'll see that USA is a police state with tyrants & worse being allowed to become a cop.. sad, very sad..

No white cops involved 👋🏻👋🏻

Race bait much ?

It's been 18 days since the poor man passed away, one can only assume the BLM movement is still on vacation.

Why did you not mention in any part of your article that the 5 offices that beat him to death are all Black?

OK no one wants to say it but where is the BLM movement now, awfully quite, strange 🤔🤔🤔🤔
