Score another one for the good guys. No officers charged in Breonna Taylors death

Interesting that all of the work done by professional criminologists to develop a policing system is cast aside and YOU have the answers on how to police the inner city.

I think you would fill your drawers like Nadler did.
The $12 million awarded to the family suggests that the police got something wrong, don’t you think?
 
The burden is on the officers and the city to make sure raids are conducted properly.. This incudes determining whether the suspect is actually there as well as redundent confirmation that procedures are being followed correctly. The necessary conditions for the raid were not there; the raid should have never happened until requisite conditions were met, thus the officers and the department are fully liable for what happened in my opinion.

As a result of this botched raid, a citizen died. Even if this citizen was a notorious drug dealer, but not the one law enforcement was after, the effect of the botched raid is the denial of due process rights, much less their right to life.

There are two general causes behind almost all mishaps, the immediate cause(s) and the underlying cause(s). The underlying cause is almost always directly related to failure of leadership, governance, or management in some way.

It appears several basic procedures were omitted or incomplete in the conduct of this raid. setting up the immediate cause for this tragedy to unfold. Why these procedures where not sufficiently followed or if procedural adjustments are necessary falls upon department and political leadership, the underlying cause.

This is a heart wrenching story as discussed in the artlcle, and the memory of Breonna demands we do all we can to make sure this does not happen again. Not happen again in the city of Saint Louis, not happen again the state of Missouri, not happen again in Kentucky, and not happen again nationwide. Policies that come out of the investigation of this tragedy should be shared nationwide. Indeed, police raid policies should be compared and amended as appropriate nationwide in order to reduce the chances of something like this from happening again.

Burden is on the police and the city and they paid off a settlement and one cop was charged with reckless discharge of his weapon.

Sorry but the cops ducked this up.

Cops make mistakes...
Professional criminologists?

WTF are you talking about..do you know how little training cops are given for these situations? A no knock warrant was issued... why? the police fucked up.

Just because the killed were Black and fox news lied and told you they were drug dealers does not you can ignore common sense.
 
A no knock warrant was issued... why?

Most drug warrants are no knock. You may be familiar with the concept of surprise. As in it may surprise you that search warrants are not made on an appointment basis.

Not drug dealers? Did you actually read the surveillance reports, seems sketchy enough to me. Jail house calls to a drug dealer? Drug dealer using that address?

I don't believe in conincidence.

Louisville postal inspector: No ‘packages of interest’ at slain EMT Breonna Taylor’s home

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – A U.S. postal inspector in Louisville said Metro police did not use his office to verify that a drug suspect was receiving packages at Breonna Taylor's apartment, one of the factors listed in officers' request for a "no-knock" warrant for her home.

But Tony Gooden said a different law enforcement agency asked his office in January to investigate whether Taylor's home was receiving any potentially suspicious mail. After looking into the request, he said, the local office concluded that it wasn't.

"There's no packages of interest going there," he said in an interview after WDRB News contacted him Friday.

Louisville Metro Police shot and killed Taylor, an emergency room tech and former EMT, during an early morning raid March 13. The shooting of Taylor, a black woman, has drawn national scrutiny and calls for an independent probe.

Gooden's disclosure raises new questions about the Louisville police department's justification for a warrant that allowed officers to enter the Springfield Drive apartment without knocking or identifying themselves — and why her home was even targeted.


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.
