Breonna Taylor was asleep when officers stormed her living space and riddled the area with bullets as part of a drugs raid…only to discover that they were at the wrong address.
Full story below…
Ms. Taylor was working as an EMT in Louisville at the time of her passing and was asleep when officers, who say they were carrying out a drugs raid, shot her at least eight times as she was sleeping.
Her family are now seeking answers from authorities.
According to the lawsuit, filed April 27, Louisville police executed a search warrant at Taylor’s home, looking for a man who did not live in Taylor’s apartment complex and had already been detained when officers came to Taylor’s apartment after midnight.
Taylor’s boyfriend, a licensed gun owner named Kenneth Walker, was also in the apartment and shot at officers (who he thought were intruders) when they attempted to enter their home without announcing themselves.
The lawsuit claims that police fired more than 20 rounds of ammunition into their living space.
None of the officers were arrested, but Walker faces charges of first-degree assault and attempted murder of a police officer.
STOP KILLING US
Black folks need to get their supplies in order. No time for the BS anymore.
STOP KILLING US!!!
Stop killing us!!
I live here. The sad thing is the story just caught heat after nearly a month…and no body cams on any of the police. 🤷🏽♂️🙏
With regards to the lack of body worn cameras, they’re in violation, but won’t get nothing from that but a reprimand or a one-day suspension. As far as the situation overall, I’m glad they left a witness because he’ll get off. Sadly, he lost his girlfriend.
Who wants to live in the USA seriously.
That country is a joke and it’s even worse since Trump became president.
And they call it the land of the free, right…
When big electors’ votes count more than popular votes. How is that a democracy ?
That story is sad. RIP and big thoughts to her family and friends. May these cops be cancelled.
Exactly. The US is a shithole country tbh.
There’s going to be a day when there is truly a war between whites and blacks. Enough is enough we will not stand down forever. They were scared when they thought Beyoncé was performing a rise up song at the super bowl
With Bruno Mars. They know the strength we Possess as a culture. There will be a day when we truly rise up
So why has it taken so long… smh
This has to stop. Period.
If a policeman kills the ones he has to protect : death penalty. Period.
They made an oath to help people and not being the jerks that they are. May they rot in hell.
Exactly why I can’t date someone who works in law enforcement or who is white 🤢
What type of the B💩 is this.?? I pray that Justin will ne seved
