  1. But I thought there was no more racism in America!!! 🀨🀨🀨

  2. Only took 4 months

  3. Why are the views so low on every piece of coverage on this story? I’ve seen about 7 or8 videos and all the views were under 3k. It’s like this story is being intentionally hid.

  4. Funny how almost nobody besides the locals has heard about this story..

  5. Fire the Sheriff because the culture stems from the leadership of the department.

  6. These deputies just wanted to Make America Great Again. This is Trumps america.

  7. Fire the sheriff and lock these criminals up. Where are their names and pictures? Stop plastering the victims, and let's see the criminals. Move faster and report so all will know. This has been since January, and it's just now getting traction in the media? Justice was served faster than this with the thugs in blue in Memphis. This is Amerikkka. Every time I think, it could only get better, this kind of crazy happen to make me wonder.

  8. For anyone else, they wouldn’t just be fired, because torture is a crime against humanity. Charge them! End qualified immunity.

  9. You're only tough when the target is outmanned and outgunned.
    Rinse and repeat. US makes me sick.

  10. The Sheriff's deputie in the back looking very nervous . He thinking free Sneakers Tv's burning police cars

  11. Its Mississippi the most openly racist place in the South doesn't surprise me

  12. I’m a middle age, middle class, white law abiding citizen of rankin county. Our deputies are a joke, every one! They do smile, interact or have any positive contact with the public. They have been militarized as a authoritarian presence. You have two types, the roided up testosterone infused that are pulling crap like this on the take, then the other half waiting on men to go to work so they can shack up with their wives during the day. Oh how many homes they have wrecked.

  13. This should be investigated by the FBI

  14. those chris p. bacons ARE A DANGEROUS THREAT TO SOCIETY AND SHOULD BE IDENTIFIED IMMEDIATELY!!! 🀬🀬🀬

  15. This is ABSOLUTELY crazy! They need to put them Under the prison! If this story is true.

  16. And this is enough? Complete police abolition and reconstruction is the only way

  17. Usual W h i t e suspects

  18. Typical corrupt and racist pigs in blue. Hope the victims and their families get justice.

  19. I remember covering this story. I’m glad their getting Justice because this was egregious and disgusting.

  20. I was at a retirement seminar and the speaker spoke on how he quit his job after he made well over $950,000 PROFIT within 3months he invested $120,000. I need guidance on what investments to make.πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€……

  21. He's so traumatized he can't even hold his head up

  22. Sexually abused these men for 90 minutes? In public? Is there video evidence of these accusations? 90 minutes is a pretty long time to sexually abuse anyone.

  23. Malik Shabazz ( attorney ) is the ex-leader of the Hate Group ( The New Black Panther Party ). Yeah I'm sure he is there only looking for Justice.

  24. Again and again and again
    Nothing has changed

    You don't even hear from fake democrat leaders

  25. This needs to be brought out to everyone eyes more . Why are the views so low for each podcast that’s occurred about these two men . Share this around , conversate it with another . Mann this is just pure sadness fr . πŸ™πŸ½ πŸ™πŸ½πŸ™πŸ½πŸ™πŸ½

  26. Well them rogue cops need to be CHARGED and arrested!! Effing thugs!🀬

  27. 🐷🐷🐷 are MURDERERS

  28. Any seemingly good cop just hasn't been caught yet.

  29. No surprise here. It's Mississippi where the RACISTS freely roam and are protected by the law. SMDH!!!

  30. Fired? They should be put in prison in general population!!!πŸ–•πŸ»πŸ’©πŸ€‘πŸ·πŸ€¬

  31. THAT'S MISSIKKKIPPI for ya…

  32. It's a miracle they made it out alive.

  33. So you can torture people and just your job i was taught differently

  34. $400m? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ yeah okay clowns 🀑

  35. Cops that think they are above the law. Absolutely terrifying.
    They'll probably get paid leave.

  36. I don't think there is anything credible or honorable about the events that led up to this but that's just me.

  37. This ish is so Typical of Mississippi, I personally have knowledge of this n have experienced racial harassment by the police here in Rankin county and Pearl county being the worst …..when is this ish ever going to stop ? 😒
