Yeah, 2nd in class at a T14 law school (it was 7th at the time he graduated) is just a participation trophy.

One the the best defense attorney in Kentucky...also, I’d imagine Matt is getting info from other places. I know UL fans hate him, but you got to admit, what he puts out there is pretty much dead on (and I would not vote for him if he ran against Cocaine Mitch).

I agree, the warrant should have never been approved in the first place

That's not exactly what he said.

He said strictly based on the information he has he would probably have not issued the warrant. He then talked about the "rumors" that he heard. According to rumors he heard, Taylor's only connection to her drug dealing boyfriend was that he once picked up a UPS package for her.

He then ADMITTED that he did not know if this WAS IT.

There have been other stories about the police having taped telephone conversations showing that Breonna was actively involved in her boyfriend's drug business.

IF that is the case, the warrant would have "almost definitely" been justified.

We don't know.

Even in his assertion that the charge for wanton disregard against Hankerson was probably justified, he admits that he doesn't know all the of the facts and is strictly basing that off of the "rumor" that Hankerson fire 21 of the 24 shots. But, he then qualifies that by saying he would have to know more facts like how quickly those shots were fired and over what time period those shots were fire, and when was Breonna hit by ANOTHER bullet vis-a-vis Hankerson's firing of his gun.

I personally believe that once Breonna's friend fired upon the police, all bets were off. The ONLY possible exception could be if there was a quick exchange of gun fire and all the firing had stopped, the police had the situation under control, and THEN Breonna was shot by a cop. Based upon EVERYTHING I've heard, that isn't even close to the facts of the case.

He expressed the only thing in this whole case is the warrant should had never been issued. The police involved in the incident did not file for the warrant (interesting)...

My biggest beef in all this is that we know at least one officer that was the affiant on the warrant lied about the evidence on the warrant. And that's a HUGE issue in respect to the power we give to officers to issue warrants and calls into question whether a warrant (in the nature it was issued particularly) would have been issued for her residence.

That officer's "accountability" was to be reassigned to another position within the department with full pay, full benefits, etc. That's a huge, systematic issue.

I genuinely question what lives could've been saved (and I'm not talking about just Breonna Taylor's) if police were held accountable for falsifying information on a warrant? I mean, if she was allegedly part of this drug ring then why the lie to obtain the warrant for her residence? You've got plenty to detain Glover at that point.

quote:

---

A day before the raid, a detective asked a judge to approve the warrant in part because he claimed a postal inspector verified that Glover was using Taylor's home to receive parcels, the affidavit says.

It is "possible" that Louisville police asked a mail inspector from another jurisdiction of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service for help, Gooden said, but he said his office almost surely would have been notified of an outside agent's involvement.

That didn't happen, he said. If a postal inspector from another agency did review packages at Taylor's apartment without notifying him, it would be innappropriate.
