Breonna Taylor (EMT and nursing student) was killed in Louisville when the police searched and came into her home without knocking looking for a person who had already been arrested and the officers were also in wrong neighborhood.
It's been 4 months, the police officers have yet to be arrested or charged.
Since the public outcry and protests, Commonwealth Attorney Tom Wine has recused himself from the investigation into the LMPD conduct that night, the FBI is now investigating the killing of Breonna Taylor, the LMPD Police Chief, Steve Conrad, announced his retirement, all charges have been dropped against Breonna's boyfriend, Kenny Walker, and the Louisville Metro Council passed a ban on no-knock raids like the one used to break into Breonna's home, but our work is not done.
Oprah gave up her magazine cover as a show of solidarity in the women supporting women social media challenge.
We need all hands on DECK! It is important that the legal community (lawyers, law students, paralegals etc.) all stand TOGETHER against this injustice. This petition will be sent to both the DA and Attorney General offices to show unified front in the legal community. As law officers we should all be held to the SAME standard as citizens for unlawful behavior.
