"For three months since her murder, Breonna Taylor’s family, people of Louisville, Americans across country, and many around world have called out for justice. And yet, those calls have gone unanswered. arrests have been me, officers responsible for her death remain employed by LMPD, and disturbingly, LMPD’s own investigation report was woefully inaccurate. As a Louisvillian, as a human being, I cant be silent.

I join all those who are speaking out against this grave injustice, calling upon Attorney General Daniel Cameron to take immediate action to hold those responsible for her death accountable.Mr. Cameron, longer you wait to bring criminal charges against officers Jonathan Mattingly, Myles Cosgrove, and Brett Hankison, more trust erodes. I urge you to commit to transparency in investigation and prosecution of se officers, and dress LMPD’S insufficient response to Breonna Taylor’s murder. We must t allow erasure of Black women to continue in America. As many activists and leers have been imploring for years: #SayHerName. (sic)"
