Black Men Tyre Nicholson Beaten to Death by Police!

FedEx Worker beaten to death:

Who was Tyre Nicholson?

Mr. Nichols was a second shift worker at FedEx in Memphis. He would return to his mother's house for lunch every evening and had worked at FedEx for about nine months. He had a 4-year-old son and enjoyed going to Starbucks and a local park, where he would photograph sunsets and skateboard, a hobby he had since he was 6. 

He was beaten by officers on January 7th, and according to his family's lawyers, he was calling out for his mother in his final moments. His mother's house was 100 yards away from where he was beaten.

Lawyers for his family said that the stop escalated into a violent confrontation that ended with Mr. Nichols hospitalized in critical condition. Three days later, he died. The circumstances of the traffic stop remain unclear as officials have disclosed little information. 

The death of Mr. Nichols has sparked anger and frustration in Memphis as his family, their lawyers and activists seek answers. City officials have promised the release of video footage of the stop. The family’s lawyers watched the footage on Monday and said that it showed Mr. Nichols being pepper sprayed, shocked with a stun gun and restrained. State and federal investigations are underway to determine whether to pursue criminal charges against the officers involved. 

An internal investigation by the Memphis Police Department found that the officers used excessive force and failed to intervene or provide help. The five officers involved were fired by the department on Friday. The family is pushing for the officers to be charged with first-degree murder.

Six Officers have been fired so far and charged with first degree murder.
