LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Two bench warrants have been issued for a central figure in the Breonna Taylor case, sources told WAVE 3 News on Wednesday.

The revelation comes two days after WAVE 3 News received 39 pages of leaked documents that paint a picture of a close relationship between Taylor and her ex-boyfriend, convicted drug dealer Jamarcus Glover.

“It’s unfortunate that the city did not provide LMPD’s post-death report and that we only learned of it until it was leaked to the media,” Sam Aguiar, an attorney representing Taylor’s family, told WAVE 3 News on Wednesday.

"Either way, it doesn't change whether she should've been killed or the unlawful actions surrounding her killing," Aguiar added.

Glover, 30, skipped a recent court appearance; his lawyer said Wednesday that he doesn’t know where his client is. A warrant was issued for his arrest on July 27. Glover faces a number of drug-related charges in two separate cases.

The documents include a number of new details related to the evidence LMPD detectives presented in the warrant used to raid Taylor’s apartment on March 13. Taylor, 26, was shot dead during the raid, prompting a national outcry demanding police reform and three months of protests on Louisville’s city streets. During the incident, LMPD Sgt. Jon Mattingly was shot by Taylor’s boyfriend, Kenneth Walker. Mattingly was one of three officers who fired back.

WAVE 3 News has learned the author of the undated report is an investigator in an ongoing narcotics case against Glover, but is not part of the Taylor death investigation. The leaked documents were first reported Tuesday by the Courier-Journal.

It has nothing to do with the legalities of the case, but it's unfortunate that this woman was willing to get into relationships with men like this.

I am so grateful the daughters we raised have high standards for the men they are willing to date and form relationships with.

For whatever reasons, women seem attracted to outlaws with money...

He didn’t fire thru the same entry door. He was on the side patio, firing thru. He also fired thru the bedroom window.

Thanks for the clarification.

What is especially interesting if true is that according to one report, police knew that her former boyfriend Glover no longer lived at her residence but executed the warrant anyway, which was written to Glover.

They weren’t there for Glover. There were there for his stuff he was keeping there, and Breanna herself was on the warrant. She was making money pickups for him, and he would also go into her house with his key when she wasn’t there to pick stuff up.
