Three of five former Memphis, Tennessee, police officers were acquitted by a jury Wednesday on all state charges, including second-degree murder, in the January 2023 fatal beating of Tyre Nichols. The other two ex-officers previously agreed to plead guilty to the state charges.

Despite being found not guilty in state court, all three have been convicted in federal court and face time in federal prison.

After blanket acquittals for three former officers in the Tyre Nichols criminal trial, attention turns to the civil case.
