   This is an event so horrific, so racist, it's almost - but only almost - hard to believe it took place this year.

   In rural Braxton, #Mississippi, this January, six white cops raided a home without a warrant and without any official purpose. Once inside, they beat, tased, tortured, and sodomized the two Black men living there, eventually shooting one in the mouth.

   All because "a white neighbor had complained that Black people were staying with a white woman."

   In 2023.
