Back to the fucked up Memphis case
Memphis Police Department said in a document — which was released Tuesday by the state and obtained by The New York Times — that a Memphis Police Officer took a picture of Nichols after the beating of him propped up against a police car with handcuffs on. The photo was reportedly sent to at least five people.
The document was reportedly sent to the Tennessee Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission as a request last month for “the regulatory agency to decertify five officers involved in the beating,” according to the newspaper. The five officers have been fired and charged with second-degree murder. Decertifying the officers would make the fired officers unable and ineligible to work as police officers in the state of Tennessee.
