Nov. 1 (UPI) -- A former Memphis, Tenn., police officer charged in the beating death of Tyre Nichols during a traffic stop will plead guilty to federal civil rights violations on Thursday, his attorney said.
Desmond Mills Jr. -- one of five Memphis Police officers charged in Nichols' death in January -- plans to change his plea to guilty, his attorney, Blake Ballin, said. Mills is scheduled to appear in court on Thursday. The terms of his plea agreement have not been made public.
