TL;DR Summary

Three former Memphis police officers involved in the death of Tyre Nichols have been officially decertified by the Tennessee Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission, meaning they can no longer work in law enforcement in the state. The decision comes almost two months after the officers were charged with second-degree murder in Nichols' death. The officers were terminated from the Memphis Police Department in January after Nichols was repeatedly punched and kicked by police officers following a traffic stop and brief foot chase.
