The pole cam is most damning because you get the 'Rodney King effect' from multiple officers striking Nichols.

But I found Nichols crying out for his mother just... man, horrible.

Each officer had adrenaline going from the chase and wanted to 'get in their licks.' The casualness after with them laughing about the chase showed wasn't their first rodeo.

I give police benefit of the doubt as they're putting their lives on the line. But they just beat this guy senseless and he was posing no threat on the ground maced getting pounded.

Given all the officers were black, doubt we see any real rioting.

They were angry that they couldn’t cuff him and got sprayed in the process. It devolved into base power instinct over training, reason, everything.

I get it but even Rodney King wasn’t handcuffed and held up by 2 police officers while a huge cop threw a series of deliberate haymakers into a guy that was 100% defenseless.

That was horrific and not that cops first time. Guarantee there are complaints against that one cop going back years. All that shite is going to come up as it should.
