#PrestonHemphill has been fired from Memphis PD, but he's still free with no charges filed, even after he pulled #TyreNichols out of his car, tased him, and said that other officers should "beat his ass"."
⁠
Hemphill also did something else that police officers do all the time in these situations.

He LIED in the reports. ⁠

We can't let up. Add your name to make sure that Hemphill and every other person involved in murdering Tyre is prosecuted: https://act.grassrootslaw.org/sign/TyreNichols/

This is how people-power leads to accountability.

#PrestonHemphill wasn't even named publicly until his name was found in the police report and people put him on blast publicly.

Then he was "relieved of duty."

Over 11,000 people joined us to demand that he is fired and prosecuted and now he's finally been fired.

Next, he must be PROSECUTED for his involvement in the deadly police beating of #TyreNichols.

We won't stop until it happens: https://act.grassrootslaw.org/sign/TyreNichols?source=ms20230206
