Photographer J.D. Barnes captures the anguish and the outrage over the grand jury’s decision in Breonna Taylor’s killing.

Photo: JD Barnes On Wednesday afternoon, when a Kentucky grand jury announced its decision regarding Breonna Taylor’s killers, photographer J.D. Barnes was watching with a crowd in Louisville’s Jefferson Square Park. “You heard audible gasps,” Barnes said. “It was just disbelief.”

For many in Louisville, and around the country, it is a decision utterly devoid of justice — no more sense in the verdict than in the death. “It was as if they said he was completely innocent,” Barnes said. “What they indicted him on was nothing.” It’s not as if the Louisville Police Department did things the right way. Initially, officers classified Taylor as a suspect in a drug investigation, although it has since become clear that her involvement in the case was tertiary at best. Taylor had no drugs in her apartment; police subsequently admitted that they expected “no threat” from her on the night of the shooting, because they knew where their suspect — an ex of Taylor’s with whom she maintained a “passive” friendship — would be.
