After several of its cops killed Black motorist Tyre Nichols by beating him to death, the Memphis police chief disbanded the area's infamous Scorpion team. The chief referred to a "cloud of disgrace" in the fatal encounter's just released video on Saturday. A day after the terrifying footage surfaced, Cerelyn "CJ" Davis, the director of police, took action. She claimed that before coming to her decision, she had listened to Nichols' kin, local authorities, and impartial officers. The city and the country are finding it difficult to comprehend the violence committed by the Black police officers. The video raised additional questions regarding why tragic interactions with law enforcement continue to occur despite repeated demands for change.
