The dept was well aware of prior abuse.The dept failed to act. The officers used excessive force when excessive force did not need to be exercised.Tragic loss to humanity
I'm with you on this one. I have a feeling that those officers always abuse people. Unfortunately, it took this tragedy for them to have a wake up call.
A unit called "Street Crimes Operation to Restore Peace in Our Neighborhoods" that's specifically designed to get rid of the crime hot spots in a criminally active city doesn't sound bad. The problem seems to be that the department has lowered their entry requirements, the fitness standards, the educational thresholds and focused on diversity over competence and merit. Some of these officers had a past of violent behavior too.
There is more to this story than media knows. It appears as if one of those officers had a personal problem with the now deceased individual. Rest in peace brother. May God have mercy on your soul, may God have mercy on the murderers souls.
@@karinaz8756 I'm SO with you on that, Karina...and well said. A lot of people online are trying to make sense of what happened by asserting what I call "Social Rorschachs" to the situation so they can "see" what makes them feel comfortable.
All of their arrests should be looked at again. These fools didn't give a damn about breaking the law while killing this man. Imagine what other laws they broke? Criminal behavior and all.
A statistically insignificant amount, according to objective data and research. Unless, of course, you’re not the party of science and want to engage in conspiracy rather than fact finding. Lesson #1 of logical reasoning: Anecdotes don’t prove the aggregate rule.
Imagine what it was like before body cameras, doorbell cameras and street cameras it would have been no way to prove what really happened in these situations
The baton beating officer's body cam shows the same footage. But you can hear and see the officer hit Tyre dead in the face, repeatedly. Thank goodness for that body cam footage
These officers made a huge mistake. I think they should have the book thrown at them, but Alfred Titus should not have an opinion without first watching the video.🙄
This was no mistake they knew exactly what they were doing. This is what being a cop in America has come to and our so-called leaders are defending it! Black white they're all the same.
Don't forget that white officer from the initial traffic stop that said "I hope they stomp his @ss" and all the other officers that came in later and didn't do jack 💩 for Tyre
Funny we must have watched different videos because that guy resisted arrest for a long time. Let me guess you only watched the edited version that fit your narrative.
Question: They made 565+ arrests? How many were unnecessary/unlawful? They seized 100k+ in cash? What percentage were unlawful seizures; How much did they pocket on-site? 🤫🙃😉
exactly, cops aren't exactly known for keeping records of their misdeeds and criminaliy, quite the opposite, they go to great lengths to lie and cover up their criminal actions, most of which are regular practice for them.
You must need a see and eye dog! He was being beaten, but you didn't see any of that, he was afraid for his life, fear set in , emotions set in, and he acted on impulse hoping that by running away he just might have a chance to live!
You would think after what happened with the George Floyd case police everywhere would reconsider their positions with better police reform that includes accountability.
You would think. In reality law enforcement broke a record last year . Over 1200 unarmed innocent people lost their lives at the hand of law enforcement. Over half were individuals with mental issues. A surprising group was the president elderly. 1200 is 2-3 people killed every day.
Not that I'm defending these 5 officers because they are definitely wrong for what they did, but I hope we're paying attention to the fact that it took only 27 days to charge them, as opposed to putting them on admin leave w/pay & months of "investigation" like what their yt counterparts get. The difference in treatment is astounding however, they're getting what they deserve.
That’s because they’re Black. The didn’t get support from the Police Union. The Blue lives matter folks are referring to this as “black on Black crime “. The black cops didn’t get paid home vacations like their white counterparts. Regardless- we see now it CAN be done. Fired ; charged , jailed ; in 2.5 weeks. That should be the blueprint moving forward.
These 5 officers were too stupid to protect. The Floyd case was less clear cut initially. With Floyd, cops responded to someone committing a crime, who was doped up and of large size, and they did not beat him. So, it wasn't initially clear how he died. But the investigation figured it out. These 5 poorly supervised officers have to be the dumbest form of sociopath to do what they did, particularly with the benefit of hindsight after the Floyd incident. The issue in Memphis is that the entire command structure of its police unit needs to be dismantled and rebuilt with federal oversight.
That’s true , normally they get paid all expensive vacation to the fabulous honalulu hotel and casino where and a family member will enjoy an 7 star buffet , spa and they get to enjoy all this in their brand new……Chevrolet camaro!! And…a new washing dryer set
If you want to cut down on crime, you don’t need tougher police, you need stronger laws. Quit letting these criminals out of jail. Quit letting them bond out time after time. Lock them up n throw away the keys after the second offense. Anyone can make a mistake but if you keep making the same mistake over n over, then it’s not a mistake, things are probably not going to change. Just remember the saying, “ You get what you accept “. Quit accepting bad behavior.
Well that goes back to the there's too many black people in jail and not enough white people. Look at all these smashing grabs. Now I'm just thinking if they arrested all of these people and most of them were black you wouldn't like that you wouldn't like that 1 bit.
Chief - "this is not a reflection of the good work that many Memphis police officers do every day." I was wondering when she would get around to saying that. It's usually the first words out of their mouth. Sorry Chief, it is a reflection of you and your force. Showing unusual transparency for a police department, the MPD now publishes accountability reports that include the race of people subjected to use of force each year. They show Black men and women were overwhelmingly targeted for rougher treatment in 2019, 2020 and 2021. They were subject to nearly 86% of the recorded uses of guns, batons, pepper spray, physical beatings and other force in 2021, the total nearly doubling that year to 1,700 cases. (This was the start of the Scorpion unit.) Seven uses of force by Memphis police ended in death during these three years. “I don’t know how much more cumulative Black death our community should have to pay to convince elected officials that the policing system isn’t broken - it’s working exactly as it was designed to, at the expense of Black lives, said Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, co-director of the Highlander Research and Education Center.
If it was reckless driving tyre vehicle looks like it’s in it’s maintained lane! Second when he was on the ground and cops think he was resisting video doesn’t lie, they the cops just started beating him up! Just because say it or lawful orders is bogus anyway, doesn’t mean tyre was delaying or interfering or obstruction!
All of the badged animals in Memphis AND their department enablers deserve to spend the rest of their miserable lives behind bars next to derek chauvin. Any settlement in this case should be paid out of their collective pensions first and the rest from the police union coffers.
Being a police officer in America is akin to being in the prison system the longer you are there the more corrupt you become! For the worst as you can see.
I think most people expect these scorpion type teams to have very experienced officers. Not 2.5 to five year officers on the job. For people that say they are not needed. Some of these areas in city’s. Need to have groups like this. Because crime is super out of control in certain neighborhoods.
I get that. But they can’t PROFILE people. They pulled this kid over and expected him to go face down on the street and be handcuffed for a traffic stop. It’s absolute BS. It makes me LIVID that the police chief said there is ZERO EVIDENCE of the reckless driving. This was unlawful.
@@karinaz8756 It seemed to me it was unlawful as soon as they yanked him out of the car. That’s what you do after a high speed pursuit. Or you think the person was just involved in a shooting. Not a traffic ticket type of stop. As far as profiling goes. Everybody does that. White or black officers know that way more percentages of crime in big city’s. Are committed by young black males Then other groups. Plus these are all black officers. In a city that’s around 65 percent black. So the minority group. Would be white people.
@@garethHK808 What would you recommend for city’s like Memphis to do. They have a super high increasing crime rate. That’s why this scorpion group was formed in the first place. I will predict that the crime rate is going to go way up the next year. With the good cops being super careful. One thing I would do. Is require judges to give a decent amount of jail time. For repeat offenders. Plus repeat serious offenders should not be let out of jail. While they wait for the trial.
Crazy it takes 40 officers an hour to go after an active school shooter but 5 won’t hesitate to beat an unarmed man to death over a reckless driving incident.
When Someone runs from cop, It becomes suspect. The cop wouldn't know How serious criminal is until they have the suspect in custody. Does it make sense?
Too much power is given police. Finally with some body cameras recording the abuse … how much has been done with no cameras…. Why are these videos edited before we see them. Sick of hearing about “concern” and “upset” ETC.
It's nice to hear from someone who has the facts and numbers at hand. I couldn't figure out why a SWAT team was pulling over a guy for a minor traffic infraction and this is the first I heard anyone address that.
Maybe police need to attend regular mental health sessions and training instead of just given a pass down a pat on the back and told to go out and get the bad guy.
Yea.. they def need therapy and a different line of work all together... way too much aggression, self hate, prior trauma present in those cops... hopefully it is not the qualities that PD are actually looking for..
At this point if you still pro police you gotta question your morals, you can only make excuses and defend them for this behavior so long before it starts to look like you’re a ……. I’m all for law and order but this behavior can’t be accepted or tolerated.
Why is no one talking about the fact that the white officer, whose body cam was released, has not been arrested? He is just as guilty as the 5 black officers that were actually arrested. This is disgusting and unacceptable.
It looks there are major violations if that dept is using policing to make stops based on window tint,and basic generalized traffic violations to investigate higher criminals and or crimes,and that is (not) typical of units involved in other investigations such as trafficking,drugs,theft,or weapons...they are much more safisticated than looking for minor traffic stops...that's said ' there is one problem in the element that created this stop,and end result in the beating death of an innocent person, giving absolute authority gives a braod gate for officers to abuse their powers...
Not just sending them to training, but also reviewing their body cams and the street came, investigating the complaints called in on them.. This wasn't the 1st time..
In the first video when he gets stopped and we see the white Leo's video at the end he says "I hope they slam him", when told the were chasing him. And also this expert goes on national TV and gives his opinion on a video he hadn't seen. Scorpion is a fishing expedition
also, if say tinted windows aren't a crime, but they are using it to justify the initial stop because they think only criminals use tint, that seems like an infringement on civil rights.
Police departments need to give drug tests nationwide. They talk about police reform, but they never mention frequent drug tests and mental status testing for these scumbags ever before and after they're hired. Why?????
Public stoning, canings, put in a cage with lions, water boarding, put I'm bowling water are just a few of the options I think these cops should endure. Absolutely no mercy!!
Getting the wolves to talk about other wolves. I'm sure that in his younger years he has done things that if light were to shine on his deeds, he'd be just as bad as all the rest of LEO's!
Wonder if the ex cop got medical attention for injuring his right leg after putting the boot in into the head of Mr, Nichols was this in the Line of duty. I think not.

In the first video when he gets stopped and we see the white Leo's video at the end he says "I hope they slam him", when told the were chasing him. And also this expert goes on national TV and gives his opinion on a video he hadn't seen. Scorpion is a fishing expedition
The guy was named Tire?
California lisence plate?
He was from Sacramento. He had moved to Memphis less than a year ago.
He was like, “they possibly assaulted Tyre”. To be honest, they definitely assaulted him. Like duh.
I know that prosecutor All I'm saying is they should not be let out on bond
If you are a motorist in America you are at risk. You are not safe driving on the streets. I am developing a phobia of driving now
I’ve been saying it the whole time, it is not about race it is about police officers abusing the power they are given.
Those cops are in so much trouble I feel bad for their family. They embarrassed their family, friends and children.
There's a lot of units across the country like that.
QUESTION: What kind of man beats a handcuffed man?
ANSWER: None, a Man wouldn't
Very informative commentary 👍
was this a simple traffic stop or do still waters run deep?
Does the 🦂 unit operate in every neighborhood in Memphis? No. Just marginalized, high crime, high poverty communities.
also, if say tinted windows aren't a crime, but they are using it to justify the initial stop because they think only criminals use tint, that seems like an infringement on civil rights.
Yes they do
These cops acted like gang members not cops maybe, they grew up in the same hood as the man they murdered.
Tyre Nichols grew up in California.
@@mole2026 Thanks.🙏 I did not know that he grew up in California.
Police departments need to give drug tests nationwide. They talk about police reform, but they never mention frequent drug tests and mental status testing for these scumbags ever before and after they're hired. Why?????
Public stoning, canings, put in a cage with lions, water boarding, put I'm bowling water are just a few of the options I think these cops should endure. Absolutely no mercy!!
Dang. Homie was tortured to death.
If you see this happening and your armed, could you assault the enforcement officers
*you’re
You'd immediately be shot by the other 2 officers who were just standing there watching the other 3 beat the man to death......
No
I suggest you be the guinea pig.
Yes you could try... choose wisely
So we are militarizing our police. That always works out well historically.

So the shield irl?
Getting the wolves to talk about other wolves. I'm sure that in his younger years he has done things that if light were to shine on his deeds, he'd be just as bad as all the rest of LEO's!
Wonder if the ex cop got medical attention for injuring his right leg after putting the boot in into the head of Mr, Nichols was this in the Line of duty. I think not.
Was the white police officer who tased this officer also be arrested?
