TL;DR Summary

Former white law enforcement officers in Mississippi are being sentenced for breaking into a home without a warrant and torturing two Black men with a stun gun, a sex toy, and other objects. The officers, including former deputies and a former police officer, admitted to the racist attack and face lengthy prison terms. The terror began with a racist call for extrajudicial violence, and the victims were subjected to racial slurs, mock executions, and physical assault. The officers have been condemned for their actions, and the victims have filed a civil lawsuit against the department.
