"Sentencing for 6 Mississippi Law Officers in Torture of 2 Black Men"

Six former Mississippi law enforcement officers are set to be sentenced for the torture of two Black men, Michael Corey Jenkins and Eddie Terrell Parker, in a racially motivated attack. The officers burst into a home without a warrant, subjected the victims to violent acts, and fabricated charges against them. The victims called for the "stiffest of sentences" ahead of the sentencing, and their attorney emphasized the national implications of the case. The officers face potential decades behind bars, with federal prosecutors drawing parallels to Mississippi's dark history.
