John,
It’s been 124 days and only one of the officers who murdered Breonna Taylor has been fired. This is not what justice looks like and we refuse to settle for it.
There are still two other officers, Jonathan Mattingly and Myles Cosgrove, on the force who were involved in Breonna’s murder. Louisville Mayor, Greg Fischer, must fire ALL of them.
Over 600 of you made calls last month directly to Mayor Fischer and thousands more sent emails to his inbox. But we need to put more pressure on, so we’re asking you again to send a personal message directly to the Mayor.
Will you click here to send a personal email from your inbox to Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer demanding that he fire and hold accountable all of the officers involved in Breonna’s murder?

“Dear Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer,
I am outraged and horrified that two of the officers who murdered Breonna Taylor have faced no consequences and despite being responsible, they are still employed by the LMPD.
The LMPD officers, Jonathan Mattingly and Myles Cosgrove, took Breonna’s life as she was just resting in her home. No warrant, no announcement, and no need to be in her home in the first place. These officers must immediately be fired for illegally entering her home, their egregious misconduct, and taking Breonna’s young life. I am calling on you to fire and hold them accountable now.”

In a joint statement, the attorneys representing Breonna’s family said the news of the firing was a welcome, but long-overdue step toward justice. The attorneys said, "we await further action by the police department to terminate the other officers."
However, AG Cameron said Monday he still has no timeline for when his office will conclude its investigation into the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor.
We cannot rest. Every email sent shows that we’re watching and sends the message that anything less than the officers’ termination from the police force will not be tolerated.
Thank you for speaking out.
