BREAKING: Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron is reportedly planning to announce the decision in the deadly shooting of Breonna Taylor by Louisville police at 1:30 p.m.
Read up on this a bit...and seems she got herself in the way of return fire. In other words, her “hit” was totally an accident.
Don’t forget the warrant was also to arrest someone already in custody. Most witnesses say they didn’t hear a knock or identification. One cop fired for repeated hazardous behavior. Plain clothes. No body cams. Warrant supposedly “lost” for a while.
My office is across the street from the Yum center downtown. But I’ve been working from home since late March. Nevertheless it’s a major side subject in WebEx meetings. The company has even told the normal skeleton crew to stay away.
Unless it gets firebombed...
IIRC, she was a VERY active partner in her boyfriend’s heroin business.
Claim: Police were at the wrong apartment
Various Facebook and Twitter posts have claimed that Louisville police went to the wrong apartment the night of Taylor’s death when they served the no-knock warrant.
Ben Crump, a Florida-based attorney involved with the Taylor case, wrote on Twitter on May 11 that police “had the wrong address AND their real suspect was already in custody.”
Our rating: False
The search warrant for Taylor and her home explicitly identified her and her address. The Louisville police were not there by mistake. They believed that Taylor had ties to Glover, one of the main suspects in the investigation.
That was my take too...she got in the path of return fire. Her boyfriend shot at the cops...and was the bad guy in all this.
The DA was elected last year and is a black republican. This will be interesting.
There will be a riot regardless of what the announcement is.
Well there is that.
It’s a confusing story at times, especially when the lawyers start spinning it! Another thing that Crump got wrong is that they were not looking for Taylor’s former boyfriend. They were actually seeking evidence against him, specifically a large sum of cash that they believe Taylor was holding for him.
Probably one of the best collections of Americana outside the Smithsonian Museums in DC. Much of it is irreplaceable.
I , for the life of me , don’t understand why we act like we’re afraid of these mobs of idiots
If you’re violent and rioting you get shot- it’s that simple
Not death. Just a knee shot
There will be riots or at least attempted riots no matter what the news is.
That’s the current way of life here. The only solution is to put it down hard.
For the record I unilaterally oppose no knock warrants I believe they are unconstitutional.
> Her boyfriend opened fired on the officers... <
Well, yes. But the boyfriend said he didn’t know they were cops. He said he thought it was a home invasion. That claim seems reasonable to me.
Heck. If I’m sitting at home and I hear my front door being broken down, my first thought is going to be “home invasion”. I won’t be thinking “Gee, I wonder if this is a no-knock raid.”
“The company has even told the normal skeleton crew to stay away.”
That can’t be good. :(
If it's a black neighborhood that means absolutely nothing, as they can be expected to lie to the police, just like the entire neighborhood in the Michael Brown case lied about what they saw the cop do. Fortunately, they lied in such stupid ways that it didn't result in the cop getting jailed. They told reporters stories like Brown was put on his knees and executed, or shot in the back, etc. What stuck was that Brown had his hands up.
Forensics showed he was shot while running forward in a tackling position, and there was blood inside the cop car from when Brown was punching the officer.
“New flat screens available at target.”
A few months ago there was a thread here with lots of comments regarding a picture of a looter. He was carrying a $69.00 Hoover out of the Target.
What a marroon! On the other hand, maybe his mama done told him she actually did need a vacuum cleaner. And so a riot afforded him the best time to get one. At a 100% discount.
If you're in a black neighborhood where 25% of the population already has a lengthy felony record, maybe you would think differently.
