Breonna Taylor's boyfriend recounts the night she was killed in interview with abc and courierjournal: 'Protect Breonna, protect myself. That's what was going through my head.”

Kenneth Walker is seen here during an interview with ABC News and The Courier Journal in Louisville, Kentucky.

She had met Walker about nine years before through Twitter. They were friends for years until a romance developed in 2016, Walker said, describing Taylor as"loving, giving" and"uplifting." "Breonna screamed out, 'Who is it?'" Walker said, and"nobody said anything, so at this time we're getting up to put on clothes to see who it is.""I grab my gun and we proceed to answer the door. When we get right in the doorway of the bedroom, the door flies open," Walker said."I figure it's intruders ... I couldn't see anybody -- it was pitch black.

Breonna Taylor, 26, was shot and killed by Louisville, Kentucky, police officers after they allegedly executed a search warrant of the wrong home.Walker said he called his mother, then 911 and then Taylor's mother. When Walker went outside, he said he expected the authorities were there to help him, so he was confused to see a massive police presence and officers' guns pointed at him.Walker was initially charged with attempted murder of a police officer but charges were later dropped.

Cameron said that because Walker fired the first shot, the officers were justified in their use of deadly force to protect themselves.

courierjournal he dumb to think that he was “protecting her”, used her as a shield

courierjournal I am so sorry this happened to her. I still don’t know how the cops can excuse or explain how they could break into a couple’s bedroom with guns blazing and shoot them in their beds!

courierjournal Didn’t he tell the cops she did it?

courierjournal This is 100% completely fucking ridiculous. This guy is a criminal and need to stay in prison

courierjournal Her death was tragic but he fired on cops but somehow he survived without a scratch. Did he think of her when he fired his weapon and then ducked and covered?

Breonna Taylor grand juror says panel wasn't given a chance to consider homicide chargesThe Breonna Taylor grand jury was not given an opportunity to consider homicide charges in the case against police officers who served a no-knock warrant at her home the night she was killed, an anonymous member of the panel said Tuesday. An EMT is in a position to see police at their best- or their worst. I think Ms. Taylor was the victim of a hit because she was a witness to police misconduct. The AG was responsible for presenting the case and the charges. Why didn’t he present homicide charges? Once again protecting everyone else but the victim.
