Five fired Memphis police officers were charged Thursday with murder and other crimes in the killing of Tyre Nichols, a Black motorist who died three days after a confrontation with the officers during a traffic stop.Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy told a news conference that although the officers each played different roles in the killing, 맥스카지노�they are all responsible.맥스카지노�The officers, who are all Black, each face charges of second-degree murder, aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, official misconduct and official oppression.Videos of the Jan. 7 traffic stop show police savagely beating the 29-year-old FedEx worker for three minutes while screaming profanities at him throughout the attack. The Nichols family legal team has likened the assault to the infamous 1991 police beating of Los Angeles motorist Rodney King.Nichols맥스카지노� stepfather, Rodney Wells, told The Associated Press by phone that he and his wife, RowVaughn Wells, who is Nichols맥스카지노� mother, discussed the second-degree murder charges and are 맥스카지노�fine with it.맥스카지노� They had sought first-degree murder charges.맥스카지노�There맥스카지노�s other charges, so I맥스카지노�m all right with that,맥스카지노� he said.Asked about the kidnapping charges, the district attorney said: 맥스카지노�If it was a legal detention to begin with, it certainly became illegal at a certain point and was an unlawful detention.맥스카지노� Court records showed that all five former officers 맥스카지노� Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Desmond Mills Jr., Emmitt Martin III and Justin Smith 맥스카지노� were taken into custody.Martin's lawyer, William Massey, confirmed that his client had turned himself in. He and Mills' lawyer, Blake Ballin, said their clients would plead not guilty. Lawyers for Smith, Bean and Haley could not be reached.맥스카지노�No one out there that night intended for Tyre Nichols to die,맥스카지노� Massey said.Both lawyers said they had not seen the video.맥스카지노�We are in the dark about many things, just like the general public is,맥스카지노� Ballin said.Second-degree murder is punishable by 15 to 60 years in prison under Tennessee law.Later Thursday, Nichols맥스카지노� mother and stepfather were joined by several dozen supporters on a cold night for a candlelight vigil and prayer service at a Memphis skate park. Nichols, who had a 4-year-old son, was an avid skateboarder.RowVaughn Wells thanked those who attended, then added that her family is 맥스카지노�grief stricken.맥스카지노� Activists and clergy led the group in prayer and a drummer played a steady rhythm to lead into the spoken part of the vigil. Afterwards, skaters rode their boards as Wells and her husband watched.The attorneys for Nichols' family, Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci, issued a statement saying that Nichols "lost his life in a particularly disgusting manner that points to the desperate need for change and reform to ensure this violence stops occurring during low-threat procedures, like in this case, a traffic stop.맥스카지노�The Rev. Al Sharpton, who runs the National Action Network and will deliver the eulogy at Nichols맥스카지노� funeral service next week, called the charges 맥스카지노�a necessary step in delivering justice맥스카지노� for Nichols.맥스카지노�There is no point to putting a body camera on a cop if you aren맥스카지노�t going to hold them accountable when the footage shows them relentlessly beating a man to death,맥스카지노� Sharpton said. 맥스카지노�Firings are not enough. Indictments and arrests are not convictions. As we맥스카지노�ve done in the past ... we will stand by this family until justice is done.맥스카지노�Video below: Tyre Nichols' family watches body camera video from traffic stop they say led to his deathAt the White House, President Joe Biden said the Nichols family and the city of Memphis deserve 맥스카지노�a swift, full and transparent investigation.맥스카지노�맥스카지노�Public trust is the foundation of public safety, and there are still too many places in America today where the bonds of trust are frayed or broken,맥스카지노� Biden said in a statement.The Memphis police chief has called the officers' actions that night 맥스카지노�heinous, reckless and inhumane."맥스카지노�This is not just a professional failing. This is a failing of basic humanity toward another individual," Memphis Police Director Cerelyn 맥스카지노�CJ맥스카지노� Davis said in a video statement released late Wednesday on social media.Davis said the five officers found to be 맥스카지노�directly responsible for the physical abuse of Mr. Nichols," were fired last week, but other officers are still being investigated for violating department policy. In addition, she said 맥스카지노�a complete and independent review맥스카지노� will be conducted of the department맥스카지노�s specialized units, without providing further details.Two fire department workers were also removed from duty over Nichols맥스카지노� arrest.As state and federal investigations continue, Davis promised the police department's 맥스카지노�full and complete cooperation맥스카지노� to determine what contributed to Nichols' Jan. 10 death. Police have said Nichols was stopped for reckless driving and at some point fled from the scene.Relatives have accused the police of causing Nichols to have a heart attack and kidney failure. Authorities have only said Nichols experienced a medical emergency. One of the officers, Haley, was accused previously of using excessive force. He was named as a defendant in a 2016 federal civil rights lawsuit while employed by the Shelby County Division of Corrections.The plaintiff, Cordarlrius Sledge, stated that he was an inmate in 2015 when Haley and another corrections officer accused him of flushing contraband. The two officers 맥스카지노�hit me in the face with punches,맥스카지노� according to the complaint.A third officer then slammed his head to the ground, Sledge said. He lost consciousness and woke up in the facility맥스카지노�s medical center.The claims were ultimately dismissed after a judge ruled that Sledge had failed to file a grievance against the officers within 30 days of the incident.___Associated Press reporters Aaron Morrison in New York and Travis Loller in Nashville contributed to this report.
