Louisville police have fired two detectives, one who shot Breonna Taylor and another who sought the warrant that led to the deadly raid. Taylor, a Black woman, was killed March 13 by police executing a narcotics search warrant.

FILE - This undated file photo provided by Taylor family attorney Sam Aguiar shows Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Ky. In news reported on Tuesday, Dec. 29, 2020, Louisville police have taken steps that could result in the firing of an officer who sought the no-knock search warrant that led detectives to the apartment where Taylor was fatally shot.

Det. Myles Cosgrove and Det. Joshua Jaynes were fired Tuesday after receiving notification last week from the department’s interim chief that they would be dismissed. A letter informing them of their dismissal was released Wednesday. Jaynes was not at the scene the night of the shooting but sought the warrant that sent police to Taylor’s home. Gentry said Jaynes lied about how he obtained some information about Taylor in the warrant.

That picture is very misleading. She hadn’t been at that job for years. Her boyfriend was a drug dealer. 🤔

Not enough justice.

Good. Now they need to be arrested and prosecuted. No bail, no change of venue.
