Tyre Nichols’ sister Keyana Dixon speaks on the death of her brother at the hands of police officers in a funeral procession in Memphis Tennessee.
“On the night of January seventh my brother was robbed of his life, his passions and his talents but not his light,” Ms Dixon said.
“When my mother called me and said my baby brother was gone, I lost my faith, I cried, I screamed at God, asking how could he let this happen. “My cries turned to anger, and anger turned to deep sorrow and a pain I never felt, when those monsters murdered my baby brother.”
