Here we go again, I’ll break it down quick. On March 13, 2020 Louisville Police entered the apartment of 26 year old Breonna Taylor. Taylor lived with her boyfriend. Police were executing a “no knock” warrant looking for drugs. Taylor’s boyfriend had a licensed pistol and discharges a round as he thought it was a home invasion striking an officer in the leg. Police returned fire killing Taylor. No drugs were found. Taylor and her boyfriend were not involved in drugs.
According to the BBC (and not our terrible news) Taylor’s name and address was on the warrant because police believed that her ex-boyfriend was in the drug game used Taylor’s apartment to hide drugs. The ex-boyfriend was also arrested that night. Its also alleged that the ex-boyfriend used Taylor’s address and sent packages of clothes and shoes to her house so they wouldn’t get stolen from his place. Taylor accepted collect call from her ex-boyfriend while he was in jail. Taylor isn’t as innocent as the media makes her.
So one of the officers were involved was fired and two others are on admin duty pending an investigation. The Taylor family hired POS lawyer and shook Louisville down for $12 million. A grand jury has decided to indict the fired officer for “wonton endangerment” for firing into a neighbors apartment. No other indictments handed down including murder or manslaughter.
Of course the MSM thought it was a travesty. No more objective journalism. So here comes the night. Louisville had city cops, State Police and National Guard standby. The county enacted a cerfew. Unfortunately two Louisville Metro cops were shot. But both are recovering and a suspect is in jail. Louisville is relatively calm. The other cities are of course acting up, but no major disruptions, yet.
But for these people, when the legal process does not go the way they want the solution is to riot. You don’t see cops riot or white people riot when a cop killer goes free or get a light jail sentence? And most of these people are white and from outside the city of occurrence. Do I think Taylor was involved in some stuff? Yes. Do I think there was PC on a warrant? Yes. Did she deserve to die? No. Did someone fuck up? Yes.
There is no delete or whiteout in police work. It is dangerous, dirty and changes by the minute and when mistakes are made, people are affected forever.
