“I think we need to know if there’s a patten and practice of excessive use of force. I know the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division is investigating this killing of Tyre Nichols. But our hope is that we’ll expand the pattern and practice (probe) because many citizens have questioned not just the SCORPION unit but the Memphis Police Department and their policing where this bias towards Black people," he said. "It is important to look into, and ... there are people reaching out and their complaints weren’t being heard before this Tyre Nichols death garnered national attention. That’s concerning". As the nation absorbs the stunning video of Nichols' deadly encounter with police, there will be "more fallout," Crump added. "Whether that's going to lead to criminal charges, we have to see, but we do think there was some other officers there that should have been charged, not just these five,”
