All of Jefferson County will be under a curfew starting at 9 p.m. Wednesday until 6:30 a.m., Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer said.The curfew will last for 72 hours and have exemptions for work, medical aid and attending worship.
"We must plan for the potential of large gatherings," Fischer said. "Our goal is ensuring space and opportunity for people to express their First Amendment rights."
Fischer declared a state of emergency for the city on Tuesday, signing two executive orders "which allows him to exercise any of his emergency powers."
Last week, the city of Louisville said it would pay $12 million to Ms. Taylor’s estate as part of a legal settlement with her family. The agreement also required the city to implement policy changes, including a mandate for police commanders to approve all search warrants. Today the shooting was ruled justified as the police were responding to being fired upon by Ms. Taylor’s boyfriend Kenneth Walker.
Officials in Kentucky allows months of false claims to be made surrounding the shooting without correcting the media reporting.
As with the Trayvon Martin case…. and as with the Michael Brown case….. and as with the Freddie Gray case…. everything pushed by the media about the Breonna Taylor case was based on lies. The media will now refuse to admit the truth and will now spin the narrative to claim they never reported incorrectly. Absolutely ridiculous.
She was a black woman that was shot by Police by mistake when they forced their way into her apartment to arrest her boyfriend that used his gun to shoot back at the cops. The cops returned fire at the boyfriend and she was shot and killed.
There will no doubt be riots tonight because a ruling has been made that the cop will be charged with wanton endangerment and not murder.
Her name is all over the internet just type it in.
What really bothers most observers is that a child, a baby can be murdered on the streets of Chicago by a stray bullet fired by a gang banger and no one cares. BLM will say "it happens" but when a cop accidentley shoots a black person the city will burn.
Why do most know the name Breonna Taylor but no one cares about Dajore Wilson. She was 8 and murdered by a stray bullet in Chicago September 8th.
the black lives that matter most are the ones that can increase the state of enraged 'wokeness.'
Exactly so. These no-knock warrants, especially for a chicken **** case like this?? Those types of warrants should be reserved for known murders, etc... not for a freaking small time drug dealer.
Her boyfriend is clear of any charges, people bust in the door, they will most likely get shot.
This was a bad law, used inappropriately, and I don't see why we need to punish the lowly beat cops for laws passed by the state.
For the 28th time, the police DID knock and DID identify themselves. Once they did that, they got shot at and one took a bullet.
Did you listen to Daniel Cameron's statement? And the national news comments immediately afterwards? Even he made mention of the ONE witness to police identifying themselves. There were over 35 other people in that apartment complex, and no one else claimed to hear such identification.
Irrelevant. Not everyone on my block will hear me starting my car, either. But a nearby neighbor would hear it. Similar to what happened in this case. A nearby neighbor heard the police knock and identify themselves. Sworn testimony.

The former boyfriend had been in jail since well before the police ambushed Breonna Taylor's apartment. That is clear from your own link.
The search warrant was for drugs, drug money, etc., in Taylor's apartment. Read the link to the affidavit.
Only one of the officers was charged, and with three counts of wanton endangerment a class D felony. In fact each count can carry up to five years.
So it's not like the officer is getting a slap on the wrist IF he faces the full sentence.
And yet, predictably, the family and SJW's are getting all riled up. This is why police were on full call and the city prepped itself. They are already out there protesting and soon rioting no doubt.
There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that the SJW mob had spooked the grand jury and influenced them so they felt they had to charge the lone patsy with something. And so wanton endangerment it was.
Once again (and again and again) no non-Black person (especially a White law enforcement personnel) is allowed to use force, deadly or not, against a Black person even in a justifiable situation.
This and all the other times where police get away with murder and it is talked down beyond manslaughter is why people protest. People are rioting because we have seen it happen too many times and we get the same response. The police unions need to be busted just as all other unions have been. They protect too many scumbag cops so there is no accountability.
Mind you the officer has 15 years of his life thrown away, Breonna on the other hand is dead and there is no way she can be brought back.
You mean the man who shot in self-defense at what he took to be home invaders breaking down the door in the middle of the night - he was not charged with anything, btw.
No, the man, who like Taylor's neighbor, heard the police knock and identify themselves and then shot at them.

Do you think Breonna should have instead said, "Oh, honey, go ahead and defend us while I stay right here hiding under the covers while bullets coming through from the bedroom window fly across my head"??
Why would she deliberately position herself to be in danger? She was standing right next to the man firing at police. Dumb decision. Tragic result.
