Sad that someone can be accused of murder just for doing their job


Not sure if I feel worse for these cops or Alec Baldwin

Relatives say the "beating" caused a heart attack

Maybe the cops can plead the shot clot defense... 'He died from coincidence.'

I enjoy Memphis for 24-48 hours about twice a year… Usually have a wedding to attend, gin show, or catching a Grizzlies game.

Formula for a good weekend in Memphis is pretty simple. Don’t stay at some sketch arse hotel, hit a good restaurant, go to the event you’re attending, go to another good restaurant, get out of town. Don’t “explore”.

There are most likely multiple serial killers operating at all times in the South Memphis areas from Hickory Hill to Westwood


True, but according to gossip there have been 5 or 6 bodies discovered all killed the exact same way in the same area. Shot in the head (twice if im not mistaken), dumped in a trash can and set on fire. So either there is a 20's style gang war going on or legit serial killer. And it is plausible that it is a gang war and the MPD is turning a blind eye to it as per their standard operating procedure.

Won’t really be able to tell the difference on the Memphis news

Murder/ murder/weather !/sports / civil unrest/ attempted murder

It’s every night

Are these texts from the same person that said Eliza Fletcher’s husband and nanny were responsible for her murder?

Beating a suspect is not the same as subduing them.

My office is near the area. I'm constantly driving Winchester through Hickory Hill to Whitehaven. Got guys in our warehouse from South Memphis warning me all of the time to quit using the post office or getting gas around here

If they resist, at some point you have to get physical or let them go.

Maybe we need to start letting cops use tranquilizers.

5 supposedly professional and trained cops should be able to subdue someone without beating them. Full stop.

I'll wait for the video I guess.

A cop giving some dude putting their well being in jeopardy in a hellhole like Memphis an elbow to the face while subduing and arresting him doesn't bother me. We can't expect guys who deal with trash all day to not let it bubble over a little on occasion. If we hold them to a standard of perfection they'll get steamrolled by criminals and nobody will provide those services for us.

Now if they're just wailing on him for minutes, well, they'll have to account for it.

Burn shite down AND an excuse to steal stuff out of stores while all the mostly peaceful protesting is going on.
