Former MPD Officer, Preston Hemphill to be Added to Giglio List

February 13, 2023—The Shelby County District Attorney’s Office will add former Memphis Police Department Officer Preston Hemphill to the Giglio list. Additionally, the Office will investigate all prior and pending cases of Hemphill.

Last week the DA’s Office announced that the five former MPD Officers who are charged in the Tyre Nichols investigation had been added to the Giglio list and that the Office will investigate all of the five officers’ prior and pending cases.

This is still a very active and ongoing investigation. The current charges do not preclude us from adding additional charges as the investigation progresses.

Note: A Giglio or Brady list is a list compiled usually by a prosecutor's office or a police department containing the names and details of law enforcement officers who have had sustained incidents of untruthfulness, criminal convictions, and other issues—placing their credibility into question.
