A judge in Memphis has indefinitely postponed the state court trial of four former officers charged with second-degree murder in the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols. The decision was made to avoid parallel prosecutions that could potentially hinder the officers' rights to defend themselves in both state and federal cases.
The federal trial for the officers involved in Nichols' death was previously rescheduled to allow defense lawyers more time to review extensive evidence provided by federal prosecutors, including 800 gigabytes of video and documents.
