Callers Tell Us What It Feels Like in Memphis
27 Jan 2023
After breaking down the latest sad news out of Memphis โ the five black police officers charged with murdering Tyre Nichols โ Clay & Buck asked for callers on the ground to weigh in on what they expect this weekend. Will there be riots? Will bad weather be a factor in tamping them down?
@clayandbuck love the show guys. I live in Memphis & Nichols was pulled over by unmarked cars, with no lights. They were part of a undercover unit. Iโve heard he thought they were gang members chasing him. Itโs a very unfortunate situation.
