Five Memphis police officers were fired Friday after the chief said they violated department policies during a traffic stop in Tennessee this month that ended with the hospitalization and death of a 29-year-old man.
An administrative investigation by the Memphis police found that the officers allegedly violated multiple policies, including use of excessive force, duty to intervene and duty to render aid in the Jan. 7 traffic stop of Tyre Nichols, police chief C.J. Davis said in a statement.
The officers were identified as Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmitt Martin III, Desmond Mills Jr. and Justin Smith. They were hired between 2017 and 2020.
“The Memphis Police Department is committed to protecting and defending the rights of every citizen in our city,” Davis said. “The egregious nature of this incident is not a reflection of the good work that our officers perform, with integrity, every day.”
Efforts to reach the officers Friday were unsuccessful.
In an emailed statement, Memphis Police Association President Lt. Essica Cage-Rosario cited an ongoing criminal investigation into Nichols’ death and declined to comment on the officers’ firing.
“The citizens of Memphis, and more importantly, the family of Mr. Nichols deserve to know the complete account of the events leading up to his death and what may have contributed to it,” she said.
In a statement, lawyers for the family said the officers' firing was a first step toward justice for Nichols and his family.
"They must also be held accountable for robbing this man of his life and his son of a father," lawyers Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci said in a joint statement.
The statement added that they would review body camera video of the traffic stop in the coming days, "providing clarity into what led to the loss of this young man, father, and son. We will continue to demand transparency and accountability in this case, and will not stop until we achieve full justice for Tyre and his family.”
Authorities have said officers stopped Nichols for reckless driving on Jan. 7. A "confrontation" followed, the department said at the time, and officers pursued Nichols when he fled on foot.
While trying to take Nichols into custody, there was another confrontation and Nichols complained of having shortness of breath, the department said.
Nichols died three days later.
Authorities have not provided details about the confrontation.
A photo provided by his stepfather showed a hospitalized Nichols with blood on his face and what appeared to be a swollen eye.
The case is also being reviewed by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice, which announced earlier this week that it had opened a civil rights inquiry.

Truly sad. No respect for life.. even their own kinfolk. May be the first time I've seen several all black police involved in a situation like this. Sounds like there was no justifiable reason for the outcome. Smh...This was done by our own people…

They view there people the same way white folks do. It's part of the conditioning. The same way black folks in the streets kill each other for nothing. We have no self love so we can't have love and respect for our own people. We don't value ourselves it's easy to kill you when you don't value you.
one of the savages kicked him as if he was kicking an extra point.
facts… and I read from RG3 tweet that he was calling out for his moms… that shit is painful just reading that…I’m good on the video .. Prayer to the family man,

Street nikkas with a badge, we have the habit due to social programming of not seeing a seperation of class as black folks
You can see the resentment these cops had for the breh, mostly based on image and area of location, you can see the disgust in their faces...
It's no hope for us IMO we got too many issues as is
That's kinda a point though, RG3 was quick to marry two white hoes, you think he cares about this 29 man living with his momma calling for his momma before death?
This stuff been going on forever, class seperation amoung blacks is never discussed and these issues just lead to liberals and coons coming up with more ideas on how to profit, I refuse to watch this white liberal concern over black folks they wouldn't be seen dead around.
The most unprofessional cops ever. They were cussin him and telling him they’d fuck him up, MF etc.
Then they all stood around like hyenas planning their lies when they knew they’d fucked up.
They will pay for this by being buried alive with long sentences, state and federal, consecutively. I hope the various prosecutors step on their necks.

These particular cops (or cops in that neighborhood) probably have a known reputation for this kind of unpunished behavior, which is probably why he ran. He feared for his life, a fear that was sadly validated. :-(

Fuck black cops. I can't barely recall one that was cool. I can count on one hand the times I've met a black cop that was worth knowing.
Wait so the white cop who was doing the tasing wasn’t fired or put in jail…. Is that true?
Props on the Thread Title Change Lex
RIP Tyre Nichols
