Federal look into Breonna Taylor's death casts a wider net
Read full article: Federal look into Breonna Taylor's death casts a wider netThe three Louisville police officers who fired their guns in the fatal raid at Breonna Taylors apartment avoided homicide charges. A federal investigation of the shooting that has been quietly proceeding could be their last chance. One officer was struck, and he and two other officers fired 32 shots into the apartment, striking Taylor five times. AdDespite disappointment with the grand jury outcome, there is “cautious and guarded hope” that the federal investigation could bring some measure of justice, community activist Christopher 2X said. The FBI’s Louisville office has declined to provide details of the federal investigation into the Taylor shooting while it is ongoing.

2 detectives involved in Breonna Taylor's death are fired
Read full article: 2 detectives involved in Breonna Taylor's death are firedDetectives Myles Cosgrove, who shot Taylor, and Joshua Jaynes, who sought the warrant for the March 13 drug raid, were informed of their firings on Tuesday. None of the three white officers who fired into her home were charged by a grand jury in her death. Investigators said Cosgrove fired 16 rounds into the apartment after police breached the front door and Taylor’s boyfriend fired a shot at them. Gentry cited Cosgrove’s statements to internal investigators that he began firing at a “distorted shadowy mass” after Taylor’s boyfriend fired a single shot at officers. Three grand jurors have since come forward to say that Cameron did not allow the grand jury to consider homicide-related charges against the officers for Taylor’s death.

(Courtesy of Taylor Family attorney Sam Aguiar via AP, File)LOUISVILLE, Ky. – At least one Kentucky police officer connected to the fatal shooting of a Black woman, Breonna Taylor, is fighting a police move to terminate his employment. Cosgrove failed to “properly identify a target” when he fired rounds into Taylor’s apartment, killing her, according to a copy of his pretermination letter obtained by The Courier Journal. Officers were serving a narcotics warrant on March 13 when they shot Taylor, but no drugs or cash were found in her home. The two officers who shot Taylor, according to ballistics evidence, were not charged by the grand jury, based on a presentation of the case by the office of Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron.
