Former LAPD Cop Doesn't Pull Punches On Tyre Nichols Video
Retired LAPD sergeant Cheryl Dorsey has many, many questions about the video of the murder of Tyre Nichols.
She talked about the likelihood that he was beaten in retaliation for running.
"Yeah, it is part of the police culture," she said. "It is an unspoken thing that we all know occurs."
"When you run from the police, and they catch you, you will pay. You will be punished. And we saw Mr. Nichols being punished from the very start. And so, as I start to learn more and more about this incident, Chief Davis has a problem.
"And I appreciate her efforts, I appreciate the fact that she fired these first five initially. Immediately. But she's partially trying to save her own butt, because listen, that there were more than five officers there who did not intervene, who acquiesced to that misconduct. And when you do that, you are committing misconduct.
"It is reported by the mother of Tyre Nichols someone came to her home and told her, 'Do you know Tyre? He's been arrested for DUI. He is on his way to the hospital. We are going to book him, and no, you can't go to the hospital to see him.'
