💨 Abstract

In Memphis, a police training expert testified on behalf of three former officers charged with the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old Black man, that kicks and punches to Nichols' head were excessive. The officers, who pleaded not guilty to charges including second-degree murder, were convicted of federal charges last year. Nichols fled a traffic stop, was caught, and brutally beaten by five officers, including the defendants.
