Tyre Nichols' death prompted murder charges Thursday against the officers and outrage at the country's latest instance of police brutality. Nichols died three days after a confrontation with the officers during a traffic stop on Jan. 7. The attorneys for Nichols' family held a press conference about the charges Friday morning. "We look at how swiftly the district attorney brought charges them in less than 20 days, then we want to proclaim that this is the blueprint going forward for any time any officers, whether they be black or white will be held accountable," said attorney Benjamin Crump.Nichols' mother RowVaughn Wells, told reporters how painful it was for her to know that her son cried out for her in his time of need and she wasn't there for him, adding "It's funny, you know, he always said he was going to be famous one day. I didn't know this is how, this is what he meant."The attorneys for Nichols' family, Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci, also issued a statement saying that Nichols "lost his life in a particularly disgusting manner that points to the desperate need for change and reform to ensure this violence stops occurring during low-threat procedures, like in this case, a traffic stop."AP Video by Mike Householder ===========================================================Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com(ii) they should check with the applicable collecting society in their Territory regarding the clearance of any sound recording or performance included within the AP Television News service (iii) they have editorial responsibility for the use of all and any content included within the AP Television News service and for libel, privacy, compliance and third party rights applicable to their Territory.
