Breonna Taylor might well be alive had a no-knock warrant been executed

What happened to Breonna Taylor was a tragedy. There is no getting around that.

Yet Black Lives Matter made things a million times worse by lying and lying and lying about what actually happened. For months we've been fed phony accounts from the media who swallowed whatever BLM and the Taylor family attorney told them to say. Please read:

In the aftermath of the death of Breonna Taylor during a police raid on her Louisville apartment, many have questioned whether the police were at the right apartment in the first place.

“Unwarranted raid, at the wrong house for a suspect that was already in custody,” a June 3 Facebook post reads.

June 5 post from the Democratic Party also included the claim: "Three police officers shot and killed Breonna Taylor after barging into her house without a warrant ..."

USA TODAY reached out for comment to the Democratic Party. A spokesperson cited the House Democrats' efforts to ban "no knock" warrants in an email.

"Several outlets, including USA TODAY, have reported on the serious questions around the warrant and the application filed by the police officers, and there are questions around whether this no-knock warrant was even constitutional. The city of Louisville has subsequently banned these types of warrants because incidents like Breonna's should never happen again," Chris Meagher with the DNC told USA TODAY on June 30. “They had the wrong address AND their real suspect was already in custody,” Ben Crump, an attorney supporting the family, tweeted on May 11. “2 months later, no one has been held accountable for her death... but we will change that!”

Problem is, it was the proper address.
The police who were investigating Taylor’s apartment did have a "no-knock" warrant to enter that address. The warrant for Taylor's address was approved due to Taylor’s prior association with a suspect in a drug case.
Her "ex-boyfriend" listed her address as his own.
LMPD suspected that Taylor was receiving packages on behalf of her ex-boyfriend, Jamarcus Glover, who police suspected of drug trafficking, according to court documents.

In his affidavit, Louisville detective Joshua Jaynes wrote that a no-knock warrant was necessary “due to the nature of how these drug traffickers operate," according to ABC News.

"These drug traffickers have a history of attempting to destroy evidence, have cameras on the location that compromise Detectives once an approach to the dwelling is made, and a have history of fleeing from law enforcement,” Jaynes continued.

The lies didn't end there. The white-black pretender Shaun King spread more BS:

1) She ight still be alive if she had not been dating a drug dealer.

2) She might still be alive if her moronic idiot of a boyfriend had not opened fired on the police.

“What happened to Breonna Taylor was a tragedy.”

Yes, but having a drug dealer boyfriend made her life exciting and interesting ... right up until the end of that exciting and interesting life. It really is tragic.

She might be alive if a homicide victim hadn’t been found in the trunk of her car.

Didn’t the report state that it wasn’t no knock warrant? The no knock warrant that was originally planned wasn’t approved by the judge? Am I wrong?

[Yes, but having a drug dealer boyfriend made her life exciting and interesting ... right up until the end of that exciting and interesting life. It really is tragic.]


You’re thinking of this as a romantic entanglement. In reality, that “boyfriend” might have been her employer for a side gig that involved running errands for his drug operation.

https://www.eviemagazine.com/post/breonna-taylors-boyfriend-is-the-reason-shes-dead-not-the-police/
[Taylor’s association with Glover was initially “disputed,” according to the Louisville Courier Journal.

But according to the report, their association dates back to at least 2016, when cops asked Taylor about a dead body found in her rental car. She said she didn’t know about it, but that Glover often drove her car. The dead man was the brother of an individual with whom Glover had been arrested numerous times.

At the time, Taylor told the officers she had been dating Glover for three or four months. The report also notes that in 2017, Taylor posted bond for Glover on two pending cases.

The record also shows Glover called Taylor 26 times from jail between January 2016 and January 2020. ]

She might be alive if they had served the warrant in an ordinary way at 5 p.m., as well.

The warrant was legal.

The boyfriend's response appears to have been justified.

For him, it all comes down to did he know they were police, or should he have a reasonable belief they were police.

Home invaders yelling in the middle of the night and breaking down doors is pretty common.

Even home invades yelling "police" happens repeatedly.

Attorney Crump has found another cause but he’s not exactly sure how he’s going to handle it. Calling the KY AG a racist won’t work because he’s the same color - imagine that. He’ll come up with something. Boy - can he ever shout; demanding the Grand Jury transcript. He was on FOX this morning. His performance would put Johnny Cochran to shame if he was still above ground!

Gotta do away with “no knock warrants” - Oh! Wait a day - they should have had a “no knock warrant.” Whoops - they HAD a “no knock warrant.” Now what?????

No, Breonna Taylor would be alive today if she did not pick criminals for boyfriends and dabble in drug dealing. It is sad that this young woman died but it is her boyfriend’s fault for using her as a human shield. Why was he not prosecuted?

People are confusing the two guys involved. The fellow she was with that fired once at the police seems pretty clean. The other guy? Bad dude.

Yes, and the whole raid a place at 1 a.m. while turning a no-knock warrant into a knock and announce.

What most people do not realize is there is not a whole lot of difference between a no-knock and a knock and announce, at that time of night.

It takes a while to respond to banging on the door, when you are already in bed. 45 seconds to a minute does not cut it.

The police say they changed the warrant service, because they did not expect resistance.

Then they broke in her door after 30 seconds of announcing, and maybe 45 seconds to a minute, of banging, at most.

Plus, of course no recording, so we do not know for sure the actual timing. But the officer who was shot, and did most of the banging, estimated 45 seconds to 1 minute. That is probably the top end.

Now, that I see a full picture of her, I think I might know why she got caught in the crossfire.

WHEN will the details of the DEAD BODY found recently on Taylor’s rental car be revealed to the public?

I speculated about this yesterday. The BF said he didn’t hear the police identify themselves.

BUT, they did wake up. They clearly heard something. my guess is they heard the knock and the voices, but being asleep, it didn’t register. That is why they got up out of bed, and went to the hall, him with his gun. When they broke the door, the two occupants were ALREADY IN THE HALLWAy.

If they had still been in bed asleep when the door broke, they’d have been scared, shocked, maybe he would have reached for his gun and jumped out of bed. But they also then would have heard 3 cops screaming “police police, get on the ground with your hands up”

Instead, before the police even made it through the door, the guy shot them, leading to the shootout that killed BT, who had the bad fortune of standing next to a guy in the hallway that was shooting at intruders.

If the intruders had been drug dealers, she could well have been shot as well. It was stupid of her to not hid in the bedroom, since she did not have a gun.

I believe it was a no-knock warrant, but it was not a “no-knock raid”, since they decided to announce.

I read somewhere they needed a no-knock warrant in order to go in at midnight. Which they did because they were hitting several places, and one of the other places WAS a no-knock raid; they were afraid the drug dealer would call Breonna and have her destroy evidence if they waited until morning to check her place.

The problem as I understand it, is that they wanted to do the raid at the drug house as a no-knock raid, and needed to raid all the places at the same time.

It was from the last renter.

The rental company didn't do a thorough cleaning when it was returned./sarc
