Memphis City Council Passes Historic Police Reforms to Ensure Accountability and Transparency

Memphis City Council has passed major police reform ordinances in response to the death of Tyre Nichols, banning routine traffic stops with unmarked vehicles and plainclothes officers, and releasing information regarding charges and disciplinary action taken against Memphis police and fire personnel. The ordinances were passed unanimously and Mayor Jim Strickland praised the decision, saying the city is committed to accountability and transparency. The city is also creating a civilian review board to oversee the police department.
