Update 06/16/2020 11:31am:

Attorneys who are representing the family of Breonna Taylor say the young woman’s killing is being hidden from the public and swept under the rug by city officials like the Mayor of Louisville.

The Louisville Metro Police Department and the City of Louisville were supposed to issue documents to the attorneys that were crucial to Taylor investigation this past Friday, but no documents were given at all as of this past Monday. The lawyers asked for an official autopsy report, personnel files for the police involved Taylor’s death, and Mayor Greg Fischer’s internal communications about the situation as well. Taylor’s legal team says they’ve received none of the focus after a month of being stonewalled. The legal team says they believe an attempt is being made to cover up the situation.

The legal team gave a statement on the matter, saying, “We intend to seek all sanctions available for these blatant and willful violations of CR 45 (a KY subpoena rule). Meanwhile, we present this information so that the public is able to see the lengths that the city will go to in order to withhold the truth and keep Tamika Palmer from learning the facts surrounding her daughter’s murder." Stay tuned for more updates in this situation.

While speaking to Angie Martinez, Breonna Taylor’s mother—Tamika Palmer, spoke on the tragic incident involving her child and talked about how the police attempted to lie on her daughter’s boyfriend and try to insinuate that something happened between them which resulted in her death. However, it is known that police used a no-knock warrant and shot the young woman after entering her home.

Palmer said that police asked her “if I knew of anyone who would want to hurt Breonna or Kenny (Breonna’s boyfriend). So of course, I said no.” Martinez then asked why police would ask that question if they already knew what happened, which caused her to say, “At this point, they still hadn't told me who did this or what happened,” and noted that she asked to speak with the boyfriend again. Palmer went on to detail how the police gave her the runaround when she specifically asked about seeing the “warrant” they used, with a detective telling her he “didn’t know where it was” and also it “could have gotten lost in the shuffle of things.” Watch above.
