Memphis Officer Texted Photo of Tyre Nichols After Beating
The revelation came in Memphis police documents related to the firing of five officers who have been charged with murder in Mr. Nichols’s death.
By Jessica Jaglois, Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs and Mitch Smith
Feb. 7, 2023
Updated 7:09 p.m. ETMEMPHIS — As Tyre Nichols sat propped against a police car, bloodied, dazed and handcuffed after being beaten by a group of Memphis police officers, one of those officers took a picture of him and sent it to at least five people, the Memphis Police Department said in a document released by the state on Tuesday….
In the newly released documents, police officials said that one of the five officers, Demetrius Haley, admitted to sending a photograph of Mr. Nichols to at least five people, including two fellow officers, a civilian employee of the department and a female acquaintance. A sixth person also received the photo, the records state.
… The videos show Mr. Haley shining a flashlight on Mr. Nichols and appearing to take a photograph with his phone. He then looks briefly at his phone and, a few seconds later, appears to take another picture. …
Memphis Police Department policy prohibits officers from using personal cellphones while performing patrol duties, such as driving a police vehicle, handling calls for service or conducting traffic stops. The department’s letter said Mr. Haley had used a personal cellphone.
All this is consistent with the rumors long swirling in Memphis of a love triangle involving Officer Haley, a woman, and poor Mr. Nichols, which I mentioned last week. This suggests that the police beating had less to do with pervasive power of systemic whiteness to make even naturally saintly blacks go all Emmett Till on each other, as countless pundits have assured us, and more like what O.J. did to Ron Goldman.

Tyre got the stomp down because he was plowing Memphis cop Demetrius’ baby mamma.
A prurient detail the megaphone would normally have no problem obscuring or at least burying in a thicket of verbiage, leaving the story the the DM and NYP.
Could someone at the NYT be developing a conscience? A sense of social responsibility? A fear of the judgment of history (or some other Judge)? Maybe the NPCs are getting hung up on the black skin good problem with the story, and it no longer serves narrative maintenance.
But the question remains: are NYT reporters knowingly writing between the lines, or merely covering verbatim what was written in the initial Memphis P.D. Reports?

Yes, but sexual jealousy is a product of racism – and white supremacy – masters copulating with slaves, you know. Because there is no evidence ever in all the history of humanity of sexual jealousy. Never. Not even once. Shakespeare, the Bible, the Koranic constraints, plus all the stories from every known culture – it’s just the patriarchy protecting their power!
Ah, I dunno Steve…a black person being unable to contain their sexual passions seems unbelievable to me. Black men in particular are exemplars of continence and monogamy, and if I’m not misremembering, African American women have the lowest rate of extra pair copulation and STDs. I guess whatever happened to poor old Tire, erm, Tyre will remain a mystery.
“make even naturally saintly blacks go all Emmett Till on each other…”
Let’s see – jealous guy finds out young black guy is messing with his woman, gets a few of his friends and beats the guy to death. Pretty good parallel, except that Emmet Till’s death was probably unintended, and the girlfriend of the guy doing the beating was cucking him voluntarily. Looking forward to the 24/7 Tyre Nichols coverage by the NY Times circa 2088.
I thought we all agreed to never speak of this again since it didn’t involve anyone white and doesn’t help the communists?
Giving someone a beatdown like that – especially standing a defenseless guy up repeatedly to hit him again and again – always looked like personal animus was involved, not indignation over a violation of local traffic laws.
Is that what happened? I've watched a fair amount of the tape, and I didn't see that.
If it was a personal beat-down under color of law, the cops are basically nothing more than Crips with badges and it's a massive, massive civil-rights violation.

This would have made a fascinating exhibit in the old 24-hour museum at the Beale St police station. Sad to report that that closed in 2005.
You would think a police officer would know better than to create an evidence trail by texting a picture around. The beating by itself might have been seen as a crime of passion, but the texting makes it into a deliberate act of vengeance. Why in the world would you send a text like that?
Even if the speculation turned out to be true and there was a romantic angle to this, the beating would hardly be a crime of passion since it had to have been planned, possibly with co-conspirators. E.g. "This punk has been sleeping with my ex. Let's go find him and beat his ass!"
It would be, as you put it, a deliberate act of vengeance, with or without the texting.Replies: @Hernan Pizzaro del Blanco

First of all, we don’t yet have evidence that this was a crime of passion. This is all speculation at this point. For all we know, the officer in question just wanted to show off to others (“Look how we beat this young punks ass!”).
Even if the speculation turned out to be true and there was a romantic angle to this, the beating would hardly be a crime of passion since it had to have been planned, possibly with co-conspirators. E.g. “This punk has been sleeping with my ex. Let’s go find him and beat his ass!”

Everything “helps” the communists, since they’re inventive liars without a conscience. About this we’ve been discussing how they can use this as ammo for their effort to have the Federal government take over all policing in the nation.
Lol you are assuming that Schwartzes don’t live entirely in the present and are capable of projecting future consequences of their actions. That requires higher level cognitive ability.

I thought Steve hated conspiracy theories because we should always believe it’s incompetence and not malice when things go sideways? But this time we’re supposed to believe that if one cop took a picture of the victim, it means the guy was doing his ex and the other four cops were somehow co-conspirators in a love triangle vengeance plot? If this was a Ron Unz conspiracy theory, Steve would be rolling his eyes. But since it comes from Newsweek . . . .
Now imagine I’d Demetrius Haley and the other 4 cops were white. There would be airplanes full of preachers, activists, and agitators. CNN would do a full month live from Beale Street.
If Dave Chappelle attacker died from stomping he received would that also be blamed on systemic racism?

Obviously quite a conundrum for the civil rights establishment – on the one hand a black guy was beaten to death by cops, which is chum in the water for the usual suspects. On the other, not only were all the cops black, at least a few have questionable backgrounds and qualifications and the abuse of their power was over a very personal matter that has nothing to do with race. The icing is that it took place in a city dominated by blacks in terms of politics and population. Sort of like no one has been talking about Jackson, MS and its water supply systems ever since it was obvious that decades of black Democratic leadership did nothing to stave off what was clearly coming.
The reality is that there is no municipality in which blacks play an outsized role that is run well – corruption and featherbedding is rampant, social conditions poor, and excuses abound. The media and teachers always frame human and capital flight from these areas as unreasonable and racist, but we’ve all seen this movie enough times to know the signs of a city that is accelerating downhill.
In short, we have done the experiment and the wave packet has collapsed. The cause of black dysfunction is ... blacks. Blacks live much, much, much better in America than elsewhere because of whites--not despite them.
And this experiment/result is not unique to race. Since the 60s, "experiments" touching numerous areas--men+women, sex, family structure, the Protestant work ethic and welfare, education, crime and punishment, drugs, homosexuals and of course immigration and borders--have confirmed the basic wisdom of traditional Western Christian norms and people's common sense, over the disastrous "advice" and diktat of the "experts say" people.Replies: @Arclight, @Truth
Well Joe Biden did invite the family of Tyre Nichols to the State of the Union address and mentioned them when he called for a ban on “assault weapons”. Because, after all, those cops did beat Nichols to death with the butts of their Kalashnikovs.

I veer between thinking that we are approaching the point that things are so obviously out of whack that a backlash that resets norms to something closer to tradition is not too far away to believing we are too far gone as a society and that some combination of political/economic/cultural crisis that will radically change the country is what’s up next.

The cops who pulled Tyre over for reckless driving did not beat him….Tyre ran from them, abandoning his vehicle and then other police were called to the area to search for the fleeing suspect….they eventually found him 8 minutes later and a mile away from his abandoned vehicle. It was the second group of cops who beat him to death. Officer Haley was part of the second group of cops called to search for the fleeing suspect , after it was reported the suspect had assaulted an officer and abandoned his car.
Officer Haley was not one of the cops who pulled Tyre over for reckless driving. So It would not appear to be premeditated. Officer Haley was called to assist the officers after Tyre had resisted arrest and fled. Maybe Haley then recognized Tyre and thus joined in the beating before snapping a photo to send to his girlfriend. But the violence against Tyre started 9 minutes prior to the arrival of Officer Haley when Tyre was pepper sprayed and TASED while he resisted arrest.

Tks Corvi for making my point. Plus $.02 for using “ilk” lol.
I rest my case yer honor.
First "ilk", and then we will be told that we "should be ashamed of ourselves."
Yes, but if Mr. Nichols had lived, would we have heard one word about this incident?

The parties involved would have needed the forward planning to think, Hotel Sierra*! We beat this man too hard, and he might die. We posted a picture on social media completely incriminating all of us. We get a pass for being minorities, but we are minorty police officers. There is no telling how this will play out.

This woman speak truth and wisdom about Mr. Romney.
Do you suppose that Corvi could be the junior senator from the Beehive State?

You don’t strike me as a guy who would defend himself. You’d hide behind the shield of a cop. Right before you get replaced, inbred gringo.
