Six former Mississippi law enforcement officers have pleaded guilty to charges accusing them of torturing and abusing two black men during a raid.
Members of the self-called 'Goon Squad' each carried a coin with the name emblazoned on one side and the other with Rankin County Sheriff's Office's badge.
Lieutenant Jeffrey Middleton appeared to be the ringleader of the group, with his coin embossed with 'Lt Middleton's Goon Squad'.
Five other deputies for the Sheriff's Office, and one from the Richland Police Department, have been charged with conspiracy to commit obstruction of justice.
Christian Dedmon, Hunter Elward, Brett McAlpin, Middleton and Daniel Opdyke, and ex-police officer Joshua Hartfield, were all charged in relation to the assault of Michael Corey Jenkins and Eddie Terrell Parker in January.
Elward was charged with home invasion and aggravated assault for shoving a gun in the mouth of Jenkins and pulling the trigger - in what prosecutors called a 'mock execution'.
They are accused of assaulting them with sex toys, firearms, stun guns, milk, eggs, alcohol and chocolate syrup on January 24.
The cops are potentially facing a maximum combined sentence of 641 years and two life sentences in prison for state and federal charges, as well as a combined $12.25 million in fines.
Dedmon was charged with home invasion after kicking in a door, with McAlpin, Middleton, Opdyke and Hartfield each facing an additional charge of first-degree obstruction of justice.
Middleton admitted in court that he was convicted of vehicular manslaughter in 2007 for hitting/killing a man.

That is one sick and twisted bunch.
Notice there’s rarely much media coverage when the white cops are clearly in the wrong?
The media wants a story where the blacks will the black harmed, and the whites will have some level of judgement towards the white. They want division.
I hope they nail their a$$e$ to the side of the courthouse.
In all honesty, it’s simply time to separate. Race relations are right back in the 60s thanks to Obama and militant blacks who are always crying about racism.
We can negotiate a deal with a Sub-Saharan African nation and send the blacks who don’t want to love their country there.
Once they exhaust their welcome at the Mississippi State Penitentiary, they can serve their federal time.
And yet I have no problem with my fellow Christians. Had no problem with guys in my units.
Notice how the Memphis 5 have completely disappeared from the radar.
That is a very astute point to bring up.
I had not even thought of it, but you are right.
These cops are clearly guilty. The Man on the Moon can see their guilt. So there is no discussion to be had, only the trial. There is no ambiguity. No reversal of fates.
Where’s the fun in that, when you want to incite more George Floyd style riots with looters and shooters.
Your Christian tripe isn’t going to work on me.
Jenkins still has difficulty speaking because of his injuries, with the gunshot lacerating his tongue and breaking his jaw before exiting behind his ear.
I’ve worked with people of all colors my entire career.
My husband has worked with people of all colors his entire career.
I have dear friends of all colors I would take a bullet for and they for me.
It’s not the color; it’s the environment. Black, white, doesn’t matter...what matters is character.
“We can negotiate a deal with a Sub-Saharan African nation and send the blacks who don’t want to love their country there.”
Send them to Liberia
Agreed.
Jail is the perfect place for them.
I believe they already plead guilty. No trial necessary when they plead guilty.
These effects should fry.
Folks like this destroy everything for the good cops out there…
What do you expect when certain people go around ACTING LIKE CORRUPT GANGS OF INSANITY. THEY ALL LOOK “NUTS” TO ME.
Who else would do what they do but crazy people.
Pieces of sh**. Execute them and get them off the planet.
1st question: If the round was removed from the chamber, why ?
Was it a special round ?
That sentence makes no sense. I would think that the goon PIG knew that there would be another round chambered. Or was it a Revolver although very slim chance of that these days.
2nd question: Who made the goon squad coins ? Did the goons make them, a jeweler ? Machine Shop ?
Someone else besides the goons had to know about this.
I guess your handle fits pretty well. Here we have a story about six white guys behaving wickedly, viciously, and disgustingly against a couple of black guys while “serving” in their official capacity as law enforcement officers, and somehow you see the occasion as an opportunity to voice your belief that some black American citizens should be deported to Africa.
What are you thinking? Or, are you deliberately posting inflammatory opinions on order to make this site fit into some kind of “white supremacist” category, where the powers that be would like to relegate all sites that attract freedom-loving Americans regardless of ethnicity. I just hope I am asleep and dreamed this thread as some kind of nightmare that l can soon forget.
Christianity isn’t tripe, EEE.
