Amid concerns over what's been described in the footage as a vicious beating of Nichols by police, officials are calling for any demonstrations over Nichols' death to be conducted in a civil manner.
Video of the fatal police encounter, a mix of body-camera and pole-cam video, is expected to be released publicly after 6 p.m. Friday, Mulroy said.
Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director David Rausch said the fatal encounter was not proper policing. "This is not just a professional failing. This is a failing of basic humanity toward another individual," Davis said in the video, her first on-camera comments about the arrest. "This incident was heinous, reckless and inhumane."
Nichols, the father of a 4-year-old, had worked with his stepfather at FedEx for about nine months, his family said. He was fond of skateboarding in Shelby Farms Park, hanging out with friends at Starbucks and photographing sunsets, the family said. In Memphis police scanner audio, a person says there was "one male Black running" and called to "set up a perimeter." Another message says "he's fighting at this time."
Nichols had "extensive bleeding caused by a severe beating," according to the attorneys, citing preliminary results of an autopsy they commissioned.Among the charges, the officers were indicted on two counts of aggravated kidnapping: one for possession of a weapon and one for bodily injury.
