From Rep Nick Langworthy:
“The death of Tyre Nichols at the hands of Memphis police officers is deeply disturbing and a gross violation of their oath. I applaud the Memphis Police Chief’s and prosecutor’s actions to terminate and prosecute those responsible. The inhumane actions of these officers is a disservice to the millions of men and women in law enforcement who serve their communities with integrity. I condemn any form of violence in the strongest terms possible and pray Tyre’s family gets the justice they deserve,” said Congressman Langworthy.
From Senator Kirsten Gillibrand:
“Tyre Nichols’ death is outrageous and horrifying, and I am grateful that the officers responsible were quickly charged with his murder. I am praying for Tyre’s mother, son, family and friends, along with the Memphis community and our country. More must be done at every level of government to eliminate violence and brutality from our criminal justice system and to change the circumstances that make such atrocities possible.”
