1. There was no reason to drag him out of car for traffic violation.
2. There was not reason to attempt handcuff him for traffic violation
3. He ran because he was scared shitless
4. They beat him senseless and caused probable head/brain trauma
5, They didn’t didn’t give a damn once they pulverized him
6. It took like 20 mins for any EMT to arrive

I try to support the police.

But this is simply a murder by police.

I hope those 5 cops meet people like them in prison so they can understand what they did.

And OMT …. They were in some scorpion unit that dealt in drugs and gangs.

Why the hell are they doing traffic ??

“Why the hell are they doing traffic ??”

They weren’t doing traffic. They were an anti-crime squad. Apparently they were working the stolen-car angle, and Mr. Nichols came by doing 20 over which I guess is a good indication that the car might be stolen.
