No-knock or not, the policy of busting into residences — especially in the dark of night — should be reserved only for the most extreme of circumstances such as a hostage situation or terrorist bomb making cell where innocent lives are in immediate and imminent danger.
You mean it's not worth doing such things to prevent adults from putting substances into their adult bodies without the government nannying them?

And not just other citizens; we mustn’t forget a cop was shot in this incident. These types of raids needlessly put LEO at risk too.



I agree with all of this btw. I think the militarization of police is stupid as frick. just catch the dude after he gets the drop. it is so easy.

she knew the risks. probably talked shite about "frick the police" probably knew she was being watched, and kept at it because that is just the facts of life in that game. you do it knowing all of this. yet you keep doing it.

That's easy to do when you have the recorded conversations and the past history.

I don’t think that’s accurate. I think that started on a cop forum and got passed around as gospel. It’s in no accounts that I’ve seen.




LMPD Officer Jon Mattingly clearly states he had already breached the doorway when Walker fired. Listen to the audio of his testimony at about 1:30 in the video linked below.

Hear LMPD officer describe what happened night Breonna Taylor died....

quote:

....Mattingly said he and his fellow officers knocked on Taylor's door multiple times but no one answered. They continued knocking, he said, but when it became clear no one was answering, they broke down the door. Mattingly describes walking into the apartment, turning down the hall and being met with gunfire. He said he could feel a bullet hit his leg and he fired multiple shots in return.

Wait. You mean the guy sitting in the jail didn’t have accurate information on the raid he wasn’t at!?!?

Of course. It’s felony murder - at least in Louisiana it would be.

If someone dies during the course of your commission of a felony it’s on you even if you didn’t kill them and even if you had no intent.

The problem here is they would have trouble convicting him of an underlying felony. There is always going to be reasonable doubt as to whether the cops announced or not. If they didn’t announce, he would have no reason to know they were cops and the castle doctrine attaches when he shot at them. They would have to prove he did know they were cops and then you can charge him with ag assault and/or attempted murder, then the felony murder for Breanna’s death would attach. And let’s be honest, the DA’s office is not even going to consider opening that can of worms. There’s a reason the charges against him were dropped. Whether or not the cops performed a no-knock or not is not certain beyond a reasonable doubt, and with that, there’s no much you can do.

Wasn’t he chilling in his own home and then some people broke down the door unannounced?


The police knocked and identified themselves.

You're as ignorant as everyone else defending the criminals.

He shot a unidentified intruder that broke into the apartment where he was sleeping, that it turned it to be a cop after the fact is not relevant. The cops are the ones that put everyone in the apt at risk.


You're an ignorant person. Try harder.

In the past, people would actually know what they are talking about before commenting. You get your information from crap sources.

It was a search warrant, not an arrest warrant.

It’s stupid as frick to not have at least a basic understanding of the case. You must be repeating things that morons on the internet say. Police were not there to arrest anyone. They were there to serve a lawful search warrant and gather evidence if found. An arrest would only be necessary if evidence and behavior led to that.

You don't know that. Cops fired indiscriminately into the house - clearly there to carry out murder or worse.

This is a tough one. I am usually a supporter of cops, but I really don’t think anyone should be charged on either side.

I don't believe Kentucky has a blanket felony murder law.

If he was the crook and she was totally innocent then was she not harboring a fugitive?

They don't. Michigan, Hawaii and Kentucky have done away with it. I really wish they hadn't. He deserves to be charged.
