Tyre Nichols

Tyre Nichols, who was 29 years old, was brutally murdered by police officers on Saturday, 7 January, after they stopped him under suspicion of reckless driving in Memphis, Tennessee. Bodycam footage of the encounter was published on Friday, 27 January, showing him being severely beaten by police.

What's even more complicated about his death was the race of the police officers themselves, as all five men who are now facing murder charges are black too.

The charges include second-degree murder, aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, official misconduct and official oppression.

It makes Nichols' death look different from some of the most infamous cases of police violence or killings involving black victims and primarily white officers, such as Rodney King in Los Angeles, Michael Brown in Ferguson, and George Floyd in Minneapolis.

It's more shocking that a fellow black man/men did this to another

Wow

Wow indeed i don't know what made 5 police officers to gang beat one person as a result they are making a law in the U.S called the Tyre law

If they had been white, blacks would have been foolishly protesting about how black lives matter.. One of the officers is dating/or married to the ex of the guy killed

I saw one officer kicked him in the head like someone that's about to take a penalty kick😒

We've seen cases of white police officers doing this but this one shock me

He was sleeping with one of the police officers wife and it just so happens that the policemen are former gang members ... So they did what cult members do because of a warm wet moist hole .... Pathetic! But the lesson of the story is don't mess with another man's woman becasue you have put him in a situation that he would have to redeem himself as a man

I trie for everything Nigeria
