Ben Crump and the other attorneys will only 10%. That is still 55 Million that the City of Memphis will have to pay several civil attorneys. The attorneys would get over 16 Million Dollars!
So his hair-hat mother is suing, but his FATHER isn't? Unbeweaveable!
Black parents that can't raise their kids right, blaming innocent people for bad parenting
Police officers are LOVED and RESPECTED by every citizen of America 🇺🇸
wait a minute, i thought the family only wanted justice?????????????
Start making trump soldiers personal for wrong doing.
GRIFTERS
I HOPE THEY LOSE IN COURT AND GO BROKE ON LAWYER FEES
ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS JUST COMPLY
EASY PEASY
another winner in the ghetto lottery
Its nice to see pictures when he graduated the 6th grade
Family going after that ghetto lottery, nothing new
WOW! I knew the number would be big. I was thinking 100 million. But 550 million is even better. I hope they get every penny.
This was murder to the highest degree. I hope the family get every dime. It want change anything around the country. America is already a lost cause not all cops are evil but, the many that are will never be rooted out because if their fired that can move to the next district and get another job doing the same thing. The supreme court would have to get involved for real change to happen with new laws being put in place in every state but, that will never happen.
That lawyer is no MLK.. talkin like that tryna persuade yalls minds.. he tryna bankrupt the whole city..
Memphis does need a police force too lol its bad there, lots of chicks walkin the street
550 million? Ain’t gonna happen… how much you wanna bet they wanted something like a billion dollars before their lawyer talked them down 🤣🤣🤣
The same fkn lawyer brooo lol their idea of justice is to bankrupt the city n the police department!!!
What are these lazy mfs thinking!!
That dude was never gonna make half a billion dollars in his lifetime 😅 fkn crooked lawyer, being greedy af is a sin ya know 😮
Tyre- British spelling of tire. Please think before naming your kids. I've noticed that when people try to give their kids special names or by adding Da, Le and even Cre , in front of a standard regular first name , that the kid ends up killed , jailed or at the bottom of the pay scale everywhere in life. Employers dont like to hire people named Lekisha , Dashawn. or Creshawn. No, these names are not family names or historic names or christian names but they are names that the mom or dad thought would be jazzy or cute for a person. You are only asking for problems by trying to make your kid "special". They are not getting the special treatment that the parents have imagined they would.
Because of the severity's of the painful and most excruciating blows to the head from the steel baton causing traumatic brain injury that leads to DEATH my hope is that the courts and jury find these vicious monsters liable and award the family of Tyree Nichols every blessed dollar 💸💵💸💵 of that HUGE 500 million dollars lawsuit!!!
The tax payers will be on the hook.
I would sue the mom for not having an abor….
How can this be racism if all the cops are black?
BOOMBACLOT!!!
