Shameful.
He should not be offered a deal !
They know they beat that brother. One fist knocked him to the left and another fist knocked him to the right. All under the eye of the camera. They forgot about the damn camera.
The "Standards" for cops today, 2024, are 100 % DIFFERENT than decades ago! Today, it's 99.9 %, WHO YOU KNOW, NOT, WHAT YOU KNOW!
Black cop showing out for the white cops.

How does one criminal arrest people?? They are supposed to serve & protect…😢 smh
🤕🤢🤮🤧 black🥵"The Truth shall sat you Free". "Well, that's what they say"😮😮
He'll do big time jail time….the same as any other BLACK criminal.
Memphis TN….Memphis Egypt still The Mockingbird Bird 🕊️ 🧡 State has to struggle.
A black cop was racist 😂
Lock him up for life , should be punished more severely seeing he swore an oath to protect and serve the public and he murdered that guy . Throw away the key. Unfortunately, I’m sure he will only get a few years and be out free .
Disgusting. And I’m pro law enforcement, these are just thugs with badges these guys
Pffffffffffft. He'll be fine in prison. He knows them.
The D.A. should go down for not catching this themselves, unless they were in on it.
Great! None of those animals can win at trial anyway
Memphis Tennessee
More accurately Shelby County is what you get when the gangs and street thugs become lawyers and police.
Moral Turpitude Hateful Acts of Qualified Immunity.
These dirty cops are deep out here from coast to coast
His sentence should reflect his actions.
Wait, they beat someone to death
This story is terrible but I can only think about if they were another color and had ties to the police like in so many other cases where evidence was tampered with or just straight up withheld and altered to fit the narrative of “I was in fear for my life” prime example Rodney king
It’s unfortunate

People keep asking, where's Black Lives Matter?
Are they going to get lighter sentences if any?
Why do they need a plea deal. It was murder.
Scared of dem murk charges! 😂😂😂😂
Black man is going to be indicted, but how man cave dwellers have been indicted in 10 years
No no no. You gotta add the word "supremacist" in there somewhere. Come on now!
2nd down 1 to go.
So where's all the rioting, looting, community outrage, marches for justice and calls for accountability from BLM and other groups? It makes you wonder if black cop crimes on other black people is not a cause for concern, it only matters if a "white" cop or other nationality is involved.its hypocrisy to condemn the actions of others but keep silent when yours are the culprits.
They shouldn’t be give any type of plea deal and they should’ve all been remanded until trial
Homosexual floyd
Who cares
Not sure why they cut him a deal
I find it strange that black cops get prosecuted way faster
But he’s not white???
They were all guilty they murdered that poor boy
