The Memphis Police Department has released harrowing bodycam footage of five police officers fatally beating Tyre Nichols following a traffic stop for purported reckless driving. The video released on Friday night shows Nichols, 29, crying out for his mother multiple times during the brutal January 7 assault, which took place just a few blocks from his home. 'Mom! Mom!' screams Nichols as he is pinned to the ground by multiple officers, pepper sprayed, and beaten following a foot chase. All five officers involved in the killing were charged with second-degree murder in killing Nichols, with the district attorney saying that though they all played different roles, 'they are all responsible.' Still, police across the nation are bracing for potential violent unrest in response to the graphic and highly disturbing footage.
