Our fight for justice continues.
Today, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced that the Justice Department has charged four current and former Louisville Metro Police Department officers with federal crimes related to the death of Breonna Taylor.
While this is a step towards justice and accountability that is long overdue, it doesn’t change the fact that remains: Breonna Taylor should be alive right now.
What I want, and what people across Kentucky want, is true community safety. We want a commonwealth where everyone, Black, White, or Brown, can feel safe walking down our streets or sleeping in our beds. We want to make sure this happens to no one else and so, our fight for justice continues.
My heart remains with Breonna Taylor’s family, and the families of so many others whose loved ones were murdered without any accountability.
We will never stop saying Breonna’s name.
In solidarity,
Charles Booker
