COMING WEEKS >> INCREDIBLY DAUNTING, VALERI CASTRO SHS THANK YOU >>> IN MISSISSIPPI, TWO OUT OF THE SIX DEPUTIES ARE FACIN SENTENCING FOR TORTURING TWO BLACK MENALIST YEAR. UNTER ELWOOD WAS SENTENCED TO 20 YEARS AND JEFFREY MIDDLETON WILL BE SENTENCED THIS AFTERNOON. THE NEXT FEW MEN WILL BE SENTENCED THE NEXT FEW DAYS. >> THE MEN PLEADED GUILTY TO STATE AND FEDERAL CHARGES. PROSECUTORS SAY THE OFFICERS NICKNAMED THEMSELVES THE GOO SQUAD BECAUSE OF THE WILLINGNESS TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE AND NOT REPORT IT. ANTONIA HYLTON IS JOINING US NOW. FRANKLY, THESE CHARGES ARE DISGUSTING AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT UNFORTUNATELY PEOPLE DIDN'T REALIZE WAS HAPPENING OR FORGO THIS HAPPENED. IT IS NOT AS RARE AS WE THINK. WHAT ARE THE CHARGES SPECIFICALLY >> YOU ARE RIGHT TO POINT THIS OUT BECAUSE ONE OF THE CONVERSATIONS IN MISSISSIPPI NOW, FOR MANY BLACK ELDERS THERE, THIS SOUNDS LIKE A RELI FROM WHAT THEY WERE HOPING WAS A BYGONE ERA IN THE SOUTH THAT SHONT BE HAPPENING TODAY WHAT HAPPENED IN JANUARY O 2023, FIVE FORMER DEPUTIES AND ONE POLICE OFFICER ENTERED THE HOME, NO WARRANT, NO EVIDENC THAT ANYTHING WAS HAPPENIN THERE. THEY TORTURED THE MEN FOR HOUR USING FOOD AT ONE POINT, AN SE TOY, AND THREATENING EXECUTION THAT'S HOW ONE OF THE MEN, MICHAEL JENKINS ENDED UP BEING SHOT IN THE MOUTH BY THE OFFICER WHO HAS BEEN SENTENCED FOR 2 YEARS. HEINOUS S DOESN'T DESCRIBE ALL OF THIS. THEY THEN TRIED TO PLANT EVIDENCE, GUNS AND DRUGS ON TH MEN AND IT TOOK MONTHS FOR THE TWO VICTIMS, MICHAEL JENKINS AND EDDIE PARKER TO BE BELIEVED. THERE IS RELIEF THAT WE ARE HERE NOW BUT THERE IS ANOTHER WORLD IN WHICH THAT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THE CASE. >> SOMEHOW PARKER DID SURVIVE. WHAT ARE THEY SAYING ABOUT THE SENTENCING >> THEY ARE PUSHING FOR TH MAXIMUM SENTENCE AND IT IS THE ENTIRE BLACK COMMUNITY IN TH JACKSON AREA SAYING WE NEED TO SEND A MESSAGE NOW WE HAVE 20 YEARS FOR ONE OFFICER. THAT OFFICER IS FACING THE MOS SERIOUS CHARGES BECAUSE OF HAVING SHOT JEPGENS IN THE MOUTH. THEY ARE HOPING SOMETHIN SIMILAR IS COMING FOR THE OTHE FIVE MEN INVOLVED. ON TOP OF ALL THAT, THE LOCA D.A. WILL HAVE TO REVIEW AL KINDS OF CASES IN ASSOCIATIO WITH THE GOON SQUAD. THINK ABOUT THIS THERE IS THE STORY OF THESE SI GUYS BUT THERE IS A BIGGER PROCESS HERE THAT COULD TAKE YEARS, UNDOING ALL OF THE HARM THAT WAS LIKELY DONE >> AND HOW MANY OF THOSE
