Sentencings for five former Memphis police officers convicted of federal charges in the beating death of Tyre Nichols will take place after an April state court trial on second-degree murder in the Black man's death, a judge ruled Friday.
Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmitt Martin, Desmond Mills Jr. and Justin Smith will be scheduled for sentencing in federal court the week of June 16, with specific dates for each former officer to be set later, U.S. District Judge Mark Norris said during a court hearing. The former officers are also Black.
