did nichols mace the police or did they spray themselves

the taser must not have hit him and nichols ran from his car after resisting arrest

at the second location, nichols was still fighting the police and refused to give them his hands to be cuffed

Have you seen the video on what appears to be the initial approach to the car? I don't know the background and it seems personal but the police are very aggressive from the get-go. They approached the car yelling obscenities and they drag him out. He gets put on the ground immediately and he's asking why and saying okay okay. So it didn't start with him running away or trying to get away. At least that's the way I interpreted it right now.

yes, there was no show me your license and insurance card

so something must be before the stop

pretty bad for officer saying i hope they beat the **** out of him
when they catch him

We all know how we are supposed to act when police pull us over, but at some point fight or flight kicks in. This kid obviously hit the point that he feared for his life and looks like he was justified. These cops are going away

No one watches it anyway

All media has an agenda.

Make you scared or pissed.

Those people tune in, drive up ratings and in turn drive up ad revenue.

pole camera

someone at headquarters had to turn the camera from down the
street to where nichols was located

around 20:37 beating stopped
around 20:41 medics arrived
around 21:03 ambulance arrives

I agree. The cops were over the top from the beginning. Im not sure I would not have resisted this arrest also. It looked like a gang beating more than an arrest. I hope these thugs go away for a long time.

It really does look personal. Im guessing the cops just lost it for some reason. Nothing however could justify this level of force. Its disgusting.

Yeah, it was bad reaction. At the start of the first video you can hear the cops say that Nichols was driving in and out of traffic and driving into on coming traffic. That would make the police upset, I'm guessing. Plus his car was stopped in the middle of the road. Normally someone would pull over to the side. The police clearly lost their minds over this stop. Mob mentality took over.

Maybe this will shine some light on the lack of humanity that happens daily in the city of Memphis. I keep hearing its not about race but its about humanity....

One difference between this and the daily murders, carjackings, rapes, kidnappings, etc in Memphis is these idiots were hired by the MPD in a period when the MPD removed the education requirements to become an officer. AND These idiots had uniforms and received a paycheck while the usual daily murderers don't have a uniform and run around with drug money in their trunks.

Spare me the.... its humanity we are worried about. It's a daily occurrence and doesn't make national news.

These cops were charged correctly and will go to prison for a long time.

Rememer, CNN's Van Jones said this was pure racism...What the actual heyl is wrong with Leftists/Commies? That makes zero sense, and his spin only made it worse. Trying to dialog with these Leftist-worshipping idiots seems futile. The poor guy is dead. Horrible to watch.

Black on black racism

Memphis is a great town. It's also an awful town. What can you do?

My family all relocated elsewhere after generations there. A great place to visit but you wouldn't want to live there anymore kind of thing.

What city you gonna go to? Atlanta? Nope. New Orleans? Nope. Nashville? Nope. On and on. All American big cities are decayed. I've never had an issue in Memphis or Memphis Metro for 60+ years. But it's a fact it can be a crazy place too.

Why do you have to live in a city?

I grew up smack dab in the middle of the Memphis, I live in a suburb now and would never entertain living in a major city again. I have about 13 years then I'm headed for Sarasota.

I haven’t watched the entirety of it, but what I have seen, not only are the 5 appropriately removed from the force, but there need to be more removed that didn’t step in, as is a part of their position requirements. What I saw wasn’t obvious agenda driven 1st degree, but it doesn’t mean more won’t be coming out once people start talking.

Sorry to disappoint 1988 that the city’s protests have remained peaceful since he & his crew were looking forward to seeing that tonight. /eyeroll

Well, it's public record, for one.

Not releasing now that the family has had a chance to see it will appear as if MPD is trying to protect the guys who did this, which isn't the way to go. We for sure would be talking about potential protests if they refused to release it.

It's still an ongoing investigation. It is prejudicial to a fair trial & choosing a jury.

The sheer stupidity of the protestors was plenty of entertainment for us. The fat chocopotomous handing out pizzas, the dude who said they would continue to “scrategize” but for now he had to go home because his feet was hurting like muhhhhh fukka and the black Jews who got into an argument with the white libtards on the bridge were some of our favorites.

Low IQ Dems making fools of themselves on tv and no ones business got destroyed. A win for everyone.


Well, except for Hibbetts sports store they looted and the shopping center on Lamar they set on fire. Not a win for them
