  • Some who know the officers involved in the Tyre Nichols case say at least one confirmed that he - and we are hearing several others - were with the new SCORPION Unit that MPD created in 2021 as a solution to fight crime. One man says the same SCORPION Unit stopped him on January 3, four days before Nichols was pulled over.

      DO NOT REMOVE:
      Delusional police believe they are bestowed God-given ultimate authority over man is the work of Satan and Narcissism, not Romans 13 or of God!.
      Hundreds of police officers are convicted yearly of rape/other sex crimes, assault, domestic violence, murder, perjury, planting of drugs and evidence, etc...

Had a weird pull over years ago, nothing physical, just strange claims from a couple cops, James Keller, George Alvarez, King county deputies at the time, Sea Tac Washington state. They were trying to issue tickets from their defective police cruiser. I actually pled
      not guilty & requested them in court. They No-Showed, case dismissed. Years later, they were both proven liars, one tossed off the force for a killing, one tossed for lying. Bad Cops. Only the citizenry notices they are bad first, the people who make their living off fines do not know anything. Till horrible stuff happens. Request these monsters in court. Give them nothing. Funny thing, Keller still works as a cop, in my hometown. lol.

    Ernest Lacy was 5' 7" and 140 pounds. He was walking home from work.
