Former Memphis officer Demetrius Haley came under fire two years before beating Tyre Nichols.
In Feb. 2021, Haley was on the scene when another officer ripped a woman from her car.
Despite seeing the officer dislocating the woman's shoulder, he didn't write a use of force report.

Years before beating Tyre Nichols, then-Memphis police officer Demetrius Haley was on the scene of another brutal incident where a woman was ripped from her car by a fellow officer who didn't approve of her laughing, according to police disciplinary records obtained by Insider.
