They appeared before a federal judge and were handcuffed during the court proceedings. Three of the officers were seen entering the federal office building one day after their indictments were announced. The officers face charges of excessive force, failure to intervene, deliberate indifference, conspiracy to witness tamper, and witness tampering. They were released on an unsecured bond but will owe $50,000 if they fail to show up for court. The officers already face state criminal charges of second-degree murder in Nichols’ case.
