Saying their fight for justice is not over, attorneys for Breonna Taylor's family asked the governor of Kentucky to appoint a new special prosecutor to reopen the case and slammed state Attorney General Daniel Cameron for"intentionally" not presenting homicide charges against three white officers who fatally shot the 26-year-old Black woman in her own apartment.
In the letter, the family asks for 10,000 signatures in support of the request, and as of Sunday afternoon, more than 7,800 people had signed. Louisville Metro Police Department officers Myles Cosgrove, Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly and Hankison unleashed a barrage of 32 shots into Taylor's apartment while serving a warrant around 1 a.m. on March 13.
Hankison pleaded not guilty to the chargers during his arraignment on Sept. 28. Jefferson County Circuit Court Judge Ann Bailey Smith ordered Cameron's office to release the recordings of the grand jury hearing as part of discovery in Hankison's case. Walker claimed the officer neither knocked nor announced themselves before barging into the apartment. In a civil suit against the city and police department, Walker claimed he fired a warning shot with his licensed 9mm handgun because he thought the police officers were intruders.
'Say her name'....then, KNOW that she was a drug dealer, complicit in a murder, WAS NAMED IN THE WARRANT, and her 2 lover fired and hit a police officer, while they served a legal warrant. 'Say her name', and then look foolish.
