On Jan. 7, what should have been a “routine” traffic stop culminated in the brutal beating of Tyre Nichols involving five Black Memphis, Tennessee police officers. Attorneys for Nichols’ family indicated the “savage,” three-minute beating that resulted in the 29-year-old Black man’s death was reminiscent of the infamous beating of Rodney King. In a very graphic description, they said the officers had treated Nichols like a “human piñata.” As one who has watched the videos of the encounter, I agree. On Jan. 26, it was announced that those officers had been charged with murder.
