This was her FAVORITE time of year... She should be spending it with family... she should be be alive. I'm pissed she's not. I'm so so pissed. I'm hurt. on the verge of tears.

Please dont forget her face, her name, her smile, her caring soul.

She wanted to be a nurse. Wanted to help mothers and babies... And she never got to.

The world was a better place when she was in it...

Merry Christmas Breonna... Thinkin ab you...

The Renaissance World Tour: Show 26 - L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium - Louisville, Kentucky (7/17/23).

I know Black Parade felt even more special that night, because Breonna Taylor’s (victim of police brutality) family was there. Beyoncé had her fist raised up in the air longer than usual. ✊🏽

I know this isn’t the end but I’m in tears. We will say your name forever!

Finally A Conviction For A Cop Who Helped Kill Breonna Taylor - A former Louisville officer pleads guilty on federal charges

Finally...

One of the first cops to face federal charges in connection with the death of Breonna Taylor, a Black woman who was killed in 2020 in a botched raid by Louisville police officers, pleaded guilty on one count of conspiracy this afternoon.

Former Louisville officer Kelly Goodlett was charged for her role in a scheme in which two other officers, Joshua Jaynes and Kyle Meany, provided false information in the affidavit used to secure the no-knock warrant that preceded the hail of bullets in which Taylor died. Goodlett then met up with Jaynes after the shooting in an attempt to concoct a coverup for their fatal misdeeds, prosecutors allege. Goodlett’s conviction finally makes real calls for justice from around the country, in which Taylor’s family, activists, and concerned people around the country turned into a mantra and a hashtag: Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor.

That call fell on deaf ears in Kentucky, where the state’s Black attorney general, Daniel Cameron, put on a sham case before a grand jury, announcing that the evidence didn’t support charges against any of the officers involved despite the fact that members of the grand jury later said that Cameron never asked or instructed them on how to return any charges directly related to Taylor’s death. The grand jury did indict former officer Brett Hankison for unloading 10 rounds into Taylor’s apartment and others from outside the building, where he couldn’t even see where he was shooting at. He was acquitted in March.

Cameron, a Republican, is now running for governor of the state, where his political affiliation would have made charging Taylor’s killers a liability among conservative voters. That left the pursuit of criminal justice in the case up to the feds. The Justice Department charged Jaynes, Meany, and Goodlett for allegedly lying and Hankison for the shots he fired. Meany was fired by Louisville Metro Police Department Chief Erika Shields on Sunday.

To this day, Myles Cosgrove, the former Louisville cop who actually fired Taylor’s kill shot, hasn’t been charged. He was fired in January 2021, a decision that was upheld after he petitioned in department hearings to get his job back.

Taylor died on March 23, 2020, when a barrage of Louisville cops burst into her apartment with a warrant seeking a man she previously dated. Taylor wasn’t a subject of the warrant nor was she still involved with the man who was. Instead, she was asleep along with her then-boyfriend, who also wasn’t a target of the warrant.

Turns out, the man the cops sought was already in police custody. Taylor’s boyfriend, who had a legally purchased gun, fired at the officers believing they were people committing a violent entry into the home; police returned fire, killing Taylor. She was 26 years old.

Breonna Taylor, a 26 year old medical student, was assassinated by "louisville" police inside her own home in March, 2020. The city of "louisville, kentucky" paid her family $12 million rather than let any of the assassins be held legally responsible.

No one is surprised. Not even a little bit. And she'll only get a few years max if anything. Meanwhile Breonna is dead. Murdered by police and attempted cover up as per usual.

The Killer of Breonna Taylor has been rehired into the police force

The Carroll County Sheriff's Office on Saturday confirmed the hiring of Myles Cosgrove, who was fired from the Louisville Metro Police Department in January 2021 for violating use-of-force procedures and failing to use a body camera during the raid on Taylor's apartment, according to media reports.
