• Nope, no racism here

    "A white Memphis cop involved in the fatal arrest of Tyre Nichols, who was allegedly caught on body-cam saying he hoped other officers would “stomp his ass,” has been relieved of duty, authorities said Monday.

    Memphis police told the Associated Press that Preston Hemphill, 26, was “relieved of duty” shortly after the Jan. 7 traffic stop, but his name wasn’t made public until Monday.

    He is the sixth Memphis officer to be punished for the traffic stop that led to a brutal beating and the eventual death of Nichols. Unlike the five Black officers who were fired shortly after the incident, he is not facing murder charges.

    Hemphill featured in a photo on the PD’s Facebook page last July when he completed 40 hours of mental illness training to join the force’s Crisis Intervention Team."

    It's a good thing for the left that a white guy got discovered in the
    scrum. It gives them justification to start burning things. They can
    also blame the white guy for transitorily transmogrifying the Black
    guys into violent white supremacist racists.
