Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn “CJ” Davis provided more details about video of the fatal police beating of Tyre Nichols ahead of its release Friday, saying the footage is “about the same if not worse” than that of officers assaulting Rodney King in Los Angeles in 1991.
“I was outraged. It was incomprehensible to me. I don’t think I’ve witnessed anything of that nature in my entire career,” Davis told CNN’s Don Lemon.
“You’re going to see acts that defy humanity,” she said. “You’re going to see a disregard for life, duty of care that we’re all sworn to, and a level of physical interaction that is above and beyond what is required in law enforcement.”
“Individuals watching will feel what the family felt, and if you don’t, then you’re not a human being,” Davis continued."
"Davis said the footage will be released Friday evening on YouTube so it can be accessible to all. The video is broken into four pieces that are relevant to the incident. Lemon said the footage is expected to come out after 7 p.m. ET. "
