Family of Tyre Nichols Calls for Justice and Accountability After Autopsy Confirms Blunt Force Trauma as Cause of Death

Memphis, TN – The family of Tyre Nichols has released a statement acknowledging the results of the medical examiner’s report, which confirms that he died from blunt force trauma. The autopsy results were shared with the family by Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy earlier this week.

The attorneys representing the family, Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci, said in a statement that the findings match those found in an independent autopsy commissioned by the family earlier this year. They added that the report “further propels our commitment to seeking justice for this senseless tragedy.”

Nichols was brutally beaten by police during a traffic stop in January, and the incident was captured on video. The video sparked outrage and protests in the Memphis area, and the officers involved in the incident were placed on administrative leave.

The family of Tyre Nichols is now calling for justice and accountability for the officers involved in the incident. They are also demanding that the police department implement reforms to ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the future.

The Shelby County District Attorney’s office has yet to announce any charges in the case. The family of Tyre Nichols is urging the district attorney to take swift and decisive action to ensure that justice is served.
