Tyre Nichols's Parents Remember Son as "Beautiful Soul" & Describe Video of Beating by Memphis Cops
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 янв 2023
- A day after prosecutors charged five former Memphis police officers with murder over the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols, we speak with his parents, RowVaughn and Rodney Wells, about their drive to seek justice for their son. "He had a beautiful soul, and he touched everyone," RowVaughn Wells says of her son. Nichols was a 29-year-old Black father, amateur photographer and longtime skateboarder who died January 10 from kidney failure and cardiac arrest, three days after he was brutally beaten by the five officers during a traffic stop. The officers were fired earlier this month and indicted on Thursday with second-degree murder, kidnapping and other charges for their role in Nichols's death. We also speak with civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who is representing the family.

I had a nurse tell me one time, no matter how old a man is, when he is dying he calls out for his mother, so sad.
While that's not only true, this one's different. When men in agony and horror cry out for their mom, like wounded on a battlefield, it's a psychological reaction, not "literally expecting" their mothers to actually show up. But Tyre was even literally crying out for his mother who he hoped would actually hear it and actually come save him in person. So heart-wrenching I can hardly stand it.
That is true I saw my grandpa agonizing and he did so 😢
@@Cre80s , True... I remember that very thing being reported during the George Floyd tragedy , as he was dying he was calling out to his mother who was actually already deceased....... So sad !
OR CALL ON JESUS'. HALLELUJAH JESUS' HALLELUJAH
@@Cre80s
You know GOD' knows best. AMEN JESUS' AMEN
If his Mother had heard her Son cry I personal don't think she would be here today her self.
Cause them Five followers of Satan the Devil would have no doubt killed the Mother too.
I am so, so very sorry for the loss of this young, beautiful man. I burst into tears when I saw the video. I’m a blonde blue eyed 58 year old woman. I do not fear the police. My husband is brown. Every single day, every single time he leaves the house without me, I say, “I love you and be safe.” He knows what I mean. I swear to God we are devolving as a species. The violence in our society has got to stop. My God. My heart aches for this family. For all the families who’ve lost loved ones at the hand of those sworn to “Serve and Protect.”
I can tell the father is his mother’s backbone right now. Goodness my heartaches everytime she speaks 😢
Step dad
@@wildestcowboy2668 And where’s the father talking for his son? He maybe even dead, or not even around. This man clearly grew up her son, and class him as his own. People like you 🙄😒
@@leataylor9277 I stated FACTS and on 2 words your going to judge me? LMAO
Yes every mother needs to see it this is so gut reaching for me as a mother i have son's of my own
Yes every mother needs to see it this is so gut reaching for me as a mother i have son's of my own
There is no way on earth I could watch the video of my son going through something like that. I totally understand Tyree's mom feeling that way. Seeing the result would be more than enough to know what they did. My God this is horrible. I feel such grief for the family.
Moms all across the country feel Tyre's moms pain.
💔💔💔💔💐💐💐✊🏿✊🏽✊🏾✊🏻✊🏼
Dads feel his dad's pain too...
Not all moms, most moms keep voting for politicians that love that “blue line”
Furry mums feel her pain too 😔💔
None of you have any right to complain. All of the information that you need to end Cannabis prohibition that has been the number one excuse for police to target poor minorities for nearly 100 years is shown in the 14-minute 1942 USDA video *Hemp for Victory* which became public in 1990.
None of you will watch the film and see just how blatantly wrong the war on drugs really is. Police have been turned into soldiers against the American people over the exact same "Marihuana" plant that was legalized to defend the US during World War II. There is an official .gov link to the film from the US National Archives.
It doesn't matter if Cannabis was involved in this case. It is a ready excuse for police to target, harass, intimidate, beat and kill Black and Latino Americans. Cannabis prohibition since the 1920s has created this disgusting police culture and made the "Land of the Free" have the largest prison population on Earth.
*Hemp for Victory* changes everything, but barely anyone knows about it because even "left leaning" news outlets such as Democracy Now will not inform their viewers about it. We can rearrange the entire US society and gun and police cultures by making *Hemp for Victory* finally go viral, but no one cares.
So, this is what you get. Time after time, police feeling justified for beating and killing Americans with impunity.

Dear family your not alone!
I lost my son in a situation where undercover cops chase my
Son in a store and then he was
taken to a hospital and I got a
Call at 1am in the morning that he had pass away!
What ever you do family keep
Trusting the Lord to help you through this.
My son was 29 years old
When he pass away!
May GOD keep you!
My condolences to u😢🙏🏽❤️
@Jody Lien Thank you so much! GOD bless you!
May God continue to keep you my brother was beaten close to death as he suffered a seizer during his beating put in the hospital with a swollen head and unconscious .
@@beatricesmith2847 My prayers go out to you and your family!
Stay strong and focus.
@@shayshayw8365 Thank you so much. GOD bless you!
I'm grateful.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Tyre’s family and his son. There is no justification for what these officers did and they need to be locked up for the rest of their lives. It’s absolutely horrible what they did to this young man. They tortured him. They murdered him. So sad and gut wrenching. I hope and pray that justice will prevail for this family.
Can’t even discuss it without crying. 💔
I haven't stop crying and i have not seen the video I just heard him calling out for his mom that tore me down. God help us
I absolutely support you as a news agency for permission from the Family to view the contents it bears witness to. This is, and should be, the standard.
YES. That showed SO MUCH RESPECT& EMPATHY. Condolences to the Nichols Family...R.I.P. TYRE 😔🤎

People who do this get on my mf nerves. I don't need or want your condescending tone to what I offered.
There is certainly room for improvement in my text and in your ability to stay in your lane.
Don't do this to people when you clearly can appreciate the message. It's a dick move.
Such dignity and respect from these people, God bless them and console them in their loss
This is heart wrenching. Praying for this family. Tears. Senseless evil.

Yes, it makes you wanna just crawl into the video and give his mom a hug. She's stuck in a waking nightmare. Poor thing.
@@Cre80s beyond sad. We need to be united as people for the future of our children. This should never happen. His poor family especially his mother. I lost my son. I will never get over it. I pray for this family especially his mother. Brings tears to my eyes. I loved the video of Tyre skateboarding. He looked to be such a good guy and had a good vibe. Loved his photography. This breaks my heart. Things need to change!
@@turtletruth who has been training all police forces since 911. IDF Israeli forces…mmmm not good! No regard for life or truth! George Floyd was the same the police trained by IDF. Police Violence has increased since this heartless training. Our police have been militarized. IDF is training police around the world😳practice on the Palestinian’s not a word on the TV ever sadly. What kind of a world will we leave the young if this continues
My heart broke into a million pieces when I heard he was calling out for his mama. 💔💔 Unbearable pain, his mother must be feeling. So senseless and evil. May the 5 cops pay dearly for what they did. ☠💀
My condolences may he rest n peace for his mom and dad keep been strong may he get justice
Mine did as well sweetie 🤷🏽♀️😭😭😭💔🤦🏽♀️😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
His moms reaction hit me hard, had me teared up. I feel so bad for the family.
Same!
I'm so saddened to hear of this man's horrific death. R.I.P. Tyre 😭
So sorry and with respect I like to show my deepest sympathy to his family, especially his mom. She was devistated. Brought tears to my eyes seeing her so upset and sad. 🙏😪
She's being very strong, driven by passionately seeking justice for what was done to her son. I just think that no middle class families persons are free from anything like what happened to Tyre. That's a very thought out statement, based on years of being back in the USA. I was being warned about police, by people where I live, not too long after I moved back from overseas. That's why I had the windows tinted in my car, because I was warned about being a woman driving home at night by myself, where it can be seen through the windows, that being in a low crime area. Can whine about African history, but it doesn't matter even if all white areas. The same type of predatory greed, and abuse if not easily fed, with even verbal questioning why, can apply to all equally the same way. What I was warned about is even worse, sexual predator cops, or just get off beating up women.
I feel so bad so much for his family what a beautiful soul
You can't train a sociopath to not be a sociopath, all cops MUST have an extensive phycological work up to determine if they are mentally healthy enough to do the job correctly BEFORE they are trained. Otherwise we are just training dangerous people to be more dangerous and then giving them a gun and authority over the public.
When they need Manpower they will take the dregs of society. Look at the Mafia cops they killed loads of people for the lunatic gas pipe casso.
Very well said.
And then the citizens be the one's paying that lawsuit money out. We are already struggling as it is to maintain daily living with jobs, food, health care if some have, living quarters, poor water conditions and insurance if some have or not. Every thing is high and we will always be the (honest working class) ones who gets nothing. But have to pay for these corrupt actions that some who wears the blue justice. Justice for victims. Justice serves for years upon request from a jury and judge. Prayers too all Families loosing black King's. We already have a very bad shortage. Damn!!! Smh.
Psychological screening is a first step. Police officers must be evaluated regularly. Repeal Qualified Immunity.
Facts
There are no words to describe the sorrow I feel for Tyre and his family. As a mom of 2 boys, and one is Tyre's age, I cannot watch this video.
I only wish I was there to help him and protect him because that's exactly what I would have done.
Breaks my heart into a thousand pieces.
Shame on these cops.
I couldn't finish watching the video.I was so heartbroken and my heart goes out to his parents,family and friends.Deepest condolences.
My heartfelt condolences to the family of Tyree for your loss. At 62, I can't believe the level of wickedness in this world anymore.
Same here the evilness is beyond hate and soulless

What a horrible, senseless crime, not even animals behave like this. So sad Tyre seemed such a good person. So sorry for your loss Nichols family.
No Caucasians act like this. Its is there culture and training. Black people neither own nor operate anything. Just a enslaved people with the mindset of their oppressors. Thats the truth
I don’t know what else I can say that I haven’t said so many times before. 😔 prayers for this young man’s family for comfort, strength, healing, and peace. Rest In Peace Tyre!❤

Literally crushes your soul watching this. I couldnt watch it all. 2 mins in and I was done
@@TheGMRGIRL
The ONLY reason I even tried to was specifically because of this news clip. May the God(s) they believe in bring them all that they need to endure this moment and all those that come next. They deserve their Son whole and Home and since not I hope that every single person needed to get them to a higher plane shows up for them now and in the future.
I genuinely can't even take it much past Tyre and his parents right now because they MUST feel elevated everywhere.
However, we all know the time is coming to continue in earnest on the path to "justice". There is just no way that this can go any other way than for them, legally speaking. I mean, how??
What this clip did so well and Ms. Goodman really tried to center was the humanity and soul of Mr. Nichols, ...Tyre. His Life Mattered and Matters. Watching only the bc footage so far I can tell that other people did not agree. All I can do is stay enjoined in the mass majority of humans that believe his Life and Legacy should be highlighted first and always.
@@TheGMRGIRL
I'm so sorry if that last post is not right for reply. It doesn't feel right as to what in trying to entirely get at and I am sure we're in agreement so not trying to create conflict.
It's more that I'm torn between only wanting to focus on the injustice and to not have his death be the only thing we know him for.
Like-I want to bear witness but I can't..... because.... What they perpetrated against him was torture. To see that and to have no way to change the story for him....... gawd dayum it!!!
Truly grateful for Anyone finding value in words I've offered and hope that you know I meant well but not sure it typed out that way.
This is just absolutely ‘Beautiful’, what you wrote, in honor of Tyre🩸🔥🕊🔥🩸
The whole world is horrified by this!!!! This is heartbreaking!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so far away but my soul is right there with them, God bless the family.
Thank you Amy for the length and depth of coverage, of letting the victims talk about Tyre’s murder.
Amy you're doing a great job for humanity.
My deepest, most heartbroken condolences to these grieving parents.

Hello, how are you doing
Exactly, sir. Arrest criminal cops immediately, regardless of melanin content.
@PHX2PDX LOL YES!!!!!
Imagine if the cops had been YT?
Tyre's call to his mother is basic primal resopnce/scream. Unbelieveable cruelty.
Lord have mercy, my heart hurts for his mom, step-dad and family. Praying for the family.
This is just horrible! My heart breaks to hear this. Prayers for his family! I have no clue how they think this is ok! Any of it!! My heart goes out to his mother, you can tell this has broke her. She is stronger than me. I pray they get justice for Tyre! This is so close to home!! I was born in Memphis, TN
I’m so very sorry to the family of Tyre. He looked like a rly sweet guy. Ty to Democracy Now for giving these folks a non-corporate spun space to speak their truths
@@cuteface88 Is it? I hadn’t heard. Who are their donors?
My prayers go out to his parents. His mother's heart we all know is shattered, but as for his father, the inner strength he has on behalf of his wife is difficult to bear. His breakdown moment will come, and he will need the hands and wings of God and the angels to hold him. Rest In Peace Tyre Nichols. May your life and legacy never be in vain.
Amen 🙏
I feel bad for this mother. I am praying God puts his arms around her and comfort her. I can't imagine the pain and suffering she feels inside. Too many mothers are being put through unnecessary pain because of bad and corrupt cops actions.
My mom and the hospital alouded me to be beaten and strip naked by cops for no real reason. Then I was interrogated after getting my rib cracked. Then I was terrorized in rehab by the cops afterwards. Thanks Then they track my stuff. My real name is Joshua amendolA, s.s.m ontario this happened Jan 1st 2020. Glad I'm still going. Fuck all of gang of bully pieces of shit. AMEN-RA!

This is heartbreaking.! God be with this family.!
My heart breaks for these parents and family. I send prayers, light, love and comfort.
It's barely one month into 2023 and already mass shootings and police brutality. I've been hearing "Can't we all just along" for over THIRTY YEARS now and nothing, _nothing_ has changed. RIP young man and may God have mercy on the souls that took yours.
@MFD. And the thing that few news stations are talking about. Is as of January 19th the police in this country had already killed 41 people. I seen that on ABC World News. And so far they are the only news station that has reported on these numbers. That’s over two a day.
Watch the 1942 USDA film *Hemp for Victory,* end the war on drugs, change the global economy, raise the standard of living for billions of people across the planet, and reduce police brutality and mass shootings.
@Marijuanifornia ignore High Crimes, theft, smash and grab rings....gangs, rappers, etc...
'Your' law enforcement is a barometer of the state of your nation. You need to look at your society and not those on the 'literal' front line defending you. If you believe your police force is rotten... then look to the people they've to police.

What makes these police so vicious and why do they think it's ok to kill someone and not have to face consequences?? Someone needs to WAKE THEM UP!

Why does it take 1000 lbs to take down a 150 lb person?
It doesn't. And he wasn't commiting a crime. Nor posing a threat, so what need was there to 'take him down.' sick country in crisis.

God bless you. I feel traumatized as someone living thousands of miles away. What a horrific evil act on your baby. I have no understanding of such evil. This needs to stop. What is wrong with these evil men. The only thing I want to see is these sociopaths answer for their vile actions. No mother should be assaulted. I am so sorry.
Hearing this young man so close to home calling out to his momma is heartbreaking 💔
I come from a family of Cops, and usually I give them the benefits of the doubt until the court day, but 5 officers against a 150 lb guy ; no arrest should end in death
It was also stated in a comment section, on another news platform, that he was sleeping with a cop's wife! It was also stated that, he made a complaint about cops harassing him. The brotherhood came to get him...
Just gut wrenching and heartbreaking,my prayers go out to his family, I don't want to imagine what they are going thru 💔💔..Rest In Paradise Tyre Nichols 🕊️💙💔💔😔🙏🏽
Yes God Bless the family. Words well said in your comment. Dxf
My body got shivers with this one. Lord please take good care of Tyre Nichols. His death was not your plan, but police playing the role of God and used excessive force. Make sure these 5 officers will go to jail and never EVER walk the streets again.
I am so sorry this happened to him, much strength for his family, heartbreaking story of injustice once again. Abuse of power needs to be stopped on all levels. Justice for Tyre and all people. Equal rights should mean equal JUSTICE.

The grace of these parents is inspiring truly touching
Please let Justice be served!
Honestly, the scorpion unit probably beat men to an inch of their lives. Plenty of times it’s unfortunately that someone had to die for these five corrupt animals to be finally charged.
This is the most horrific brutal unnecessary incident I have ever seen on tv .I am an English lady and I am in shock at what happens in the USA police force .there is too many bad people getting away with bad things and my heart goes out to Tyes family and son.R.I.P. The. Nan 86🇬🇧🙏🙏🙏💔
I have watched so many interviews with the family and feel bad that they are just re traumatized over and over again to relive this
There are no words to describe such Satanic evil!!! Those 5 men were no doubt "DEMON" possessed!! Deepest Condolences to these parents! Horrific!!
Very much so. I saw a few seconds where he was held by 3 officers while in handcuffs and another cop punched Tyre multiple times in his face. It's like they forgot they were cops and acting like organized gangs.
OMG I've been on a journey for over 20yrs with Amy she is a super hero for having the ability to maintain composure when dealing with the most tragic of life wrenching stories that are the worst our societies have to offer.
Yet again we are watching and cringing as the details unfold and she continues to ask the questions for us and you can see her heart breaking. I love you Amy never change you give us strength just by being you.
My heart is broken for Yet another black family when will this insanity stop.
It is very difficult to see the parents with so much grieve. The grieve I feel is not comparable with the family,s grieve. It could happen to me. To everybody. And crown disease A beautifull soul that is wat you see when watching his picture. Nothing more then a beautifull soul like his parents. I’m so sorry for the parents.
That’s nice of you guys to cover this story great reporting DN! Rest in Peace
Oh my heart fell into my stomach 💔💔💔💔I’m so sadden in hurt I pray for him and his family
I am so sorry for this young man and his family. I hope justice wins. There is no excuse for these policemen. This is purely done out of evil. May this young man rest in peace and his family be comforted.
Prayers to Tyre and his family
I’m so sad for these parents and his little boy. How do you tell a little boy that you don’t have a father because police murdered him? How is this poor child supposed to ever feel safe in the world?
There is no safety in America anymore . It's frightening ; it's like we are living in a third world country. Shame on 🇺🇸
Just inconceivable horror. My condolences. As a mother, I am in awe of your stoic strength
Most police officers who commit brutality do not have the medical diagnosis of sociopathy/antisocial personality disorder. One doesn't need a specific psychiatric disorder to commit heinous acts. Psychologically 'normal,' 'sane' people do cruel and brutal things all the time. And conversely not everyone with class b personality disorders is actively cruel and abusive.
So sorry for the loss of Tyree Rest in Heaven praying for peace
So sad. Prayers for family.
This is just so tragic, so sad…😢
We need to fix this. No mother should suffer the way this mother is. When they talk about what those monsters did to her child I can't help but cry when I see his poor mom.
Prayers for the family.
such a sad day for all.
This so sad to watch and I can only imagine the pain she is going through. I pray he he get justice, sorry for your lost 😞
His dad is there and also going through pain...
What does justice even mean after such a senseless and brutal murder. I don't know if it's possible while Tyre cannot be brought back. Heartbreak. Beyond words.
Black police. should’ve know better. ..Come on How could this happen.?Especially after George Floyd. This is not right!! Why. Why? Sounds more like a gang . not Police..😢😢
My deepest condolences.
My heart breaks for them.... I hope and pray justice will be done..
GOD' WORD SAYS REVENGE IS MiND.
Hallelujah Jesus' Hallelujah
Thank You Amy for Your humanity towards My Family.
Lord have Mercy!
Yup. Many cops have a delusional and disgusting P. O. V. Of themselves as "super heroes" who once the race riots start they will come in and rescue women and children.
But in reality they salivate the prospect of a race war and they add to the Hate and Mistrust of Police officers everywhere.
There are really admirable, hard working and humble officers out. There, but there are WAY Many more violent, despicable, misogynistic, racist Police who are sadist, wayyy more.
Police departments all over America need to be reformed.
I can't listen to this anymore. I will put you his parents, in my Prayres. So, so sorry for your precious lost.
My God, please comfort this mother and father family, so touched. Strengthen them for such a time as this. Much Grace and Love🌹🙏💗💕
The comment about how no one showed him an once of compassion and humanity while he fell from side to side in agony is what got me too. There were so many more men there that had come after the fact who just ignored him. They should be fired at the very least and charged with manslaughter for not at least attempting to help him.
People that beat other people frequently often express a lot of surprise someone died, much like the scorpion unit police officers are doing here, because they've beaten so many others senseless before and THEY never died then, so why has it finally happened now? I see wife beaters say the same thing when the wife finally dies they'll be sooo shocked she died because like I said, "she never died BEFORE so no way it's happened now!" It's common. You should see how the scorpion unit was encouraged to operate. It was a disaster waiting to happen and rest assured the chief knew that. He has plenty of experience. He knew. She just wanted the benefits (more stolen cars returned to the owner) at the expense of safety. Edit: Wow, Tyre was 6'3 and 150lbs and sick? They were beating a walking skeleton up like that! Poor guy! Oh that's so sad. See, it's so easy to beat someone to death. It's very easy, even tasing him could've given him a heart attack in the shape he was in especially. It can give me a heart attack I have tachycardia. It can give YOU a deadly heart attack. You're probably overweight therefore your heart is somewhat weaker than others. Just because you may have been tased before, doesn't mean you can't have a heart attack the next time you are! Or the next time! So...that in itself is possibly* deadly force, that should only be used when they're in danger and they KNEW they weren't in danger here, but they just felt empowered to do anything they wanted at any time because they had the Chief's approval. She knew what they were doing. She's a black woman with plenty of experience she knows how fast that could've gone out of control completely. It was already out of control. Now they've killed someone. Only took them 1 year after engaging a "scorpion unit" to kill a 20 something innocent man.
Words can not express how sad I feel for the family. May GOD comfort you and GOD WILL BRING JUSTICE . Rest assured this will not go unpunished by God
Hope you're not taking about Jesus that was forced on our ancestors through MURDER, TORTURE, RAPE & FORCED INCEST... PEACE
“When is somebody going to display humanity?” wow

When he took off running to Mom’s house, I think that’s the only time I saw him break the law. That broke my heart. He just wanted to go home! His beautiful family, and his mom. Beautiful but heartbroken mom…. He loves her always!
