Tyre Nichols’ mother speaks about officers charged with murdering her son: ‘I feel sorry for them’

RowVaughn Wells gives interview after five Memphis police officers were charged with murder in the beating death of her son

Tyre Nichols’ mother says she feels sorry for the five Memphis police officers who are charged with killing her son by beating him “to a pulp,” but says they brought “shame on their own families and the Black community”.

RowVaughn Wells was speaking in an emotional live interview on CNN on Friday morning one day after the officers, who are all Black, were charged with murder in the beating death of her son following a traffic stop in the city earlier this month.
