Six white former police officers in Mississippi, who called themselves the Goon Squad, pleaded guilty to raiding a home and torturing two Black men. The officers initially tried to cover up their actions, and some face life in prison.
On January 24, the deputies raided a home in Braxton, Mississippi, after a white neighbor complained about Black men staying there. The officers texted each other about a "mission." Without a warrant, they burst into the home, handcuffed, beat, and tasered Michael Corey Jenkins and Eddie Terrell Parker. The officers also sexually abused them with a sex toy while shouting racial slurs. One officer put a gun in Jenkins' mouth, pulled the trigger, and the bullet lacerated Jenkins' tongue, broke his jaw, and exited through his neck. After the shooting, the officers allegedly gathered on the porch to discuss how to cover it up.
