Cops Kill Lady

by | May 12, 2020

Well see, the “criminal interdiction squad” was breaking into a woman named Breonna Taylor’s house in the middle of the night to serve a search warrant — looking for drugs — that was connected to an arrest warrant for a man who had already been arrested 10 miles away. And they didn’t announce themselves, just kicked in the door. So when the man of the house fired in defense of himself and his woman, they killed her. (There were no drugs.) (They fired at least 20 shots, some of which “entered” multiple adjacent apartments.)

Jonathan Mattingly, Brett Hankison and Myles Cosgrove are guilty of murder. And they’ll get away with it too.

But she was no angel. Actually, yes she was. A wonderful young woman, who worked as an EMT for two different hospitals in her town. A veritable “hero” in these times, you might say. No more. For weeks they smeared the murdered innocent young woman as a “suspect” and have charged her boyfriend with attempted murder for defending her and himself. They’ll get away with that too.
