Today's the day when the world finds out if justice for Breonna Taylor will come down.
Cameron had told the media he was waiting on a ballistics report from the FBI, which at the time he claimed was just about the last piece of the puzzle before he could wrap his investigation. Once he got that, he walked it back and said-- and then eventually kicked the whole case over to a grand jury out of Jefferson County ... presumably to appear impartial in the conclusion that's ultimately reached.
It's a tense moment -- and you can tell by what the City of Louisville did earlier this week ... preemptively declaring a state of emergency and putting a 9 PM to 6:30 AM curfew in place in anticipation of the announcement. Ominous to say the least, they're clearly erring on the side of caution. Cops were told they couldn't take time off for a while starting this week ... so it's basically all hands on deck -- the assumption being if no charges are brought forth, chaos will erupt.
The grand jury will present their report to a judge at 1:15 PM ET, and Cameron's presser is set to begin shortly thereafter ... obviously, we and the rest of the world will be watching.
