Welp now we know why BR turned down 5 mil to the Sterlings....the bar is set now folks....Sterling's attorney is probably on the phone upping the ante to 15 mil as we speak.

You skipped the part where the cops knocked, possibly announced, entered the home, and one cop was shot in the leg.

So for the attorneys of the OT, how does Crump get paid? I don’t think he is licensed in Kentucky, so he had a Kentucky attorney handle the case with his supervision? What’s Crump cut and the local attorney’s cut?

Not sure what the exact split is but they are splitting that fee. Sometimes you will see tiered fees when an attorney is coming on board to add value to a case. For instance - Crump would get 30% of the fee if below 5 mill, 40% of the fee if above 5 mill. This is all just speculation on my part but I would assume there is some kind of incentive clause for the attorney coming on board from out of state who is whatever Crump is supposed to be.

He'll probably get some kind of cut.

That 12 million should come out of the police pension fund.

Breonna was seeing Walker, the guy who shot the police as they entered. She was still having a relationship with the drug guy (he was with three women at the time, including Breonna).
Police tied Breonna’s car to the drug dealer and saw the dealer used her address for bank statements and a phone. That seems to be the primary basis for the warrant for her house which seems thin. The stuff about suspicious mail seems to be a contrivance.
The police claim they knocked and announced. Most witnesses support the knocking and not the announcing. Three police officers empty 37 shots into the apartment, mostly blindly.
In phone conversations after the shooting, the dealer says he gave Breonna money to hold for him. None of the money was recovered at her apartment. No drug paraphernalia was recovered there either.

So, the family clears about 7 million. They need to call A G Wentworth if they want their money now.

Man, that would cost Chicagoans $100mm a weekend if ALL black lives mattered.

correct..and the cops were at the wrong apartment,that should be mentioned.

I'd love to know how they came to a figure of $12MM. Let's say she made $50k/year (she didn't). She would need to work for 240 years to get to $12MM. Her family just won the lottery and the tax paying citizens of Louisville are paying for it. And the city just rolled over without as much as a criminal charge being filed against anyone for her death. What a bunch of pussies

He left out some significant points:
1) The cops had previously arrested a drug runner who was using a rental car that was rented by Breonna. The drug runner was running drugs for her supposed ex-boyfriend at the time.
2) When the cops came to the apartment and knocked, there was enough time for Breonna and her new boyfriend to get out of bed and put clothes on before the cops entered and the shooting started.
3) Breonna’s new boyfriend shot at the cops first, which caused them to return fire.
4) The shot selection by the cops is what is most questionable from an investigators point of view, not whether the shooting was justified, per se. One of the cops was shooting haphazardly through a side window, it was alleged.

Dumb choices

She was involved enough to cause concerns of her involvement.

If witnesses could hear knocks, they can hear announcements, which has been proven that they did hear knocks and verbal commands.
Her boyfriend also engaged with police causing her death. Why did he have a gun out and that proves he knew someone was there, so it wasn't just busting in.

So she was holding illegal money from a drug dealer. Means warrant was valid on concerns of involvement.

I'm not sure why this keeps getting parroted. It's simply not true.
quote:
The Courier Journal obtained copies of five search warrants Louisville police received March 12 as part of a narcotics investigation.
One was for Taylor's apartment, three were for adjacent homes on Elliott Avenue in the Russell neighborhood and one was for a house on West Muhammad Ali Boulevard. The Muhammad Ali Boulevard warrant was not executed, although the reason hasn't been made public.
The search warrant for Taylor's home includes her street address, apartment number and photos of her apartment door, which police later broke using a battering ram.
Taylor's name, birth date and social security number are listed on the warrant, alongside the names of the narcotics investigation's main targets, Jamarcus Glover and Adrian Walker.
Adrian Walker and Kenneth Walker are not related.
In the affidavit for the search warrant, Jaynes wrote that he'd seen Glover get a package from Taylor's home and that he used Taylor's address as his own on documents.
The search warrant for Taylor and her home explicitly identified her and her address. The Louisville police were not there by mistake. They believed that Taylor had ties to Glover, one of the main suspects in the investigation.
