Breonna Taylor: Grand jury released audio details conflicting accounts of her fatal shooting. An original version of this video had the incorrect length of the recordings from the grand jury.
offered new insight into the events surrounding the death of Breonna Taylor during a March 13 police raid on her Kentucky apartment.
Walker's gunshot struck Louisville Metro Police Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly in the thigh, severing an artery. Mattingly survived. Hankison, fired in June for firing blindly into Taylor’s apartment, said in radio communications that a subject was"barricading" inside the apartment with a rifle that"looks like AR." In fact, Taylor’s boyfriend, Walker, had a Glock 9 mm handgun that he fired once, and he surrendered without incident.
Cosgrove, who the FBI concluded fired the fatal shot, described a loss of senses, like he was in a"cave of complete, utter silence." Audio from that recording indicates it was captured as officers were giving Kenneth Walker orders to leave the apartment. In a recording heard by grand jurors, Louisville Metro Police Department Detective Shawn Hoover, one of the officers in the group executing the warrant at Taylor’s home, told a Public Integrity Unit investigator on March 13 that everyone in the group agreed they would knock on Taylor’s door despite having a no-knock warrant.
Officers yelled “police” on the first two knocks and “police search warrant” on the third knock, Hoover said.
