Sixth police officer suspended following fatal beating of Tyre Nichols https://nypost.com/2023/01/30/...ing-of-tyre-nichols/ A sixth Memphis police officer has been suspended as the fallout from the release of graphic body camera footage showing the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols earlier this month grows. Preston Hemphill has been placed on administrative leave, the department said Monday. Hemphill may be the white officer who was wearing one of the body cameras which was released by Memphis PD on Friday. In that footage the unidentified officer was seen attempting to arrest FedEx driver Nichols, 29, after he was initially pulled over, then firing his Taser at him as he ran from police. He later says “I hope they stomp his ass,” but the officer is not part of the group who then chase Nichols down. “Officer Hemphill is relieved of duty. This is an ongoing investigation. Once additional information is available, we will update our social media platforms. Hemphill was hired in 2018,” a department spokesperson said. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

It took them a few days, but they finally managed to work whitey into it. Can't you hear them now? "I KNEW IT!! I KNEW IT!! WHITE SUPREMACISTS KILLED TYRE!!!" | |||

And that exact statement has already been made all over the place. Fun times. He's been relieved and under investigation since the incident but never made the second scene where the beating occurred which is why his part of the investigation wasn't expedited and is still ongoing. I'd not want to be him. | |||

Kansas City won last night too, but I was not aware of any rioting. Celebrations? Absolutely. We spent the weekend in the KC suburbs, Overland Park. | |||

Yeah, considering according to FBI's crime statistics, black men are overwhelmingly, far and away, murder victims of other black men. I got the feeling, watching and listening to that video, that it wasn't their first time beating someone like that. You guys hear the one guy repeatedly telling the other guy "Do yo thang"? Other than encouragement, they didn't have to tell anyone what to do, it was like a well-coordinated routine. The two guys lifting him up by the arms so the others could wail on him: surely that doesn't just occur as a random thought in two minds, right? I've never been part of such a thing in either role, but it didn't look like it just "happened" to me. ______________________________________________ Carthago delenda est | |||

The prosecution is going to try and loop him into the murder charge, use a RICO type situation where he orchestrated the events that led to the murder and is ultimately as guilty as those who did the killing. Like the mob boss who orders a killing and his soldiers carry it out. The audio comment will infer an intent or consciousness of guilt in the prosecution theory. It's a common tactic by prosecutors even before Rodney King. The problem for his defense this guy will be the focus of the Pravda. | |||

I would have most likely also hollered, “beat his ass!” I’ve got big time respect for lawmen. I know right off I could never do your job. Just occurred to me no one I know talks bad about the law, we all know we need that calling in life. Thanks fellas, stay safe! | |||

Isn't it funny how sometimes it's the insults that lead to the biggest smiles? I recently had someone angrily holler at me after being cuffed: "Your head looks like a thumb!" They had already run through the rest of their insult repertoire, and I guess that was all they could think of next. It didn't have the intended effect. Instead, both myself and the guy backing me up were cracking up big time and agreeing with them. I've been called everything in the book over the past nearly 2 decades, but that was new to me.  (For context: I shave my head. So yes, now that you mention it, my head does look like a thumb!) | |||

If you're referring to Tyre Nichols, I would advise you to refrain from saying this in public. You would risk life and limb by saying something like that. ____ Does this imbecile ever manage 24 hours without shit dribbling out of her mouth? Whoopi Goldberg asks if 'we need to see White people get beat up' to see change, then quickly clarifies "I’m not suggesting that. So don’t write us and tell me what a racist I am," Goldberg quickly added. You racist moron, you just did exactly that.  ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

There’s a difference between having a “big time respect for lawmen” and what transpired in that video. Of the many lawmen I interact with on a regular basis, not a one would consider, “beat his ass” a cheer of support they’d want to hear…regardless of whatever suspect they were dealing with at the time.

Has the romantic relationships between the deceased and any of the MPD who administered the beating been fully explored ? Like one of the cops wife/girlfriend/ sister was involved with him ? | |||

Arrest that man! He said he hopes something happens to someone at a later time that he's not involved in, in any way. That will bring justice. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

From what I gathered watching (listening to) the videos is they attempted to stop him, he ignored them (loud music or maybe impaired?), He stopped at stop light like nothing was going on and turned on his turn signal and waited for green. That's is when they attempted the felony stop-like arrest. My guess is that he was high or just in his own world not paying attention. Oddly, verbally he seems like he's trying to cooperate and is calm, but at the same time physically he's resisting. I wonder what is going through his mind at this point As I said earlier (I thought) they were lucky to be taken out of the fight early by pepper spraying themselves. I guess they (or just whitey?) are being charged for initiating the stop? Not sure what whitey and the other officer did other than not being able to control the suspect?

I’ve seen this speculated more than once recently, that this was personal. Have you read something real about this or is it just internet chatter? ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||
