Beyoncé Has Written An Open Letter To AG Daniel Cameron Demanding Swift Justice For Breonna Taylor

Beyoncé has written an open letter to Kentucky’s Attorney General Daniel Cameron, telling him to use his power to bring criminal charges against the officers who shot and killed Breonna Taylor in her home. In her open letter she wants swift justice for Breonna Taylor.

The victim, Breonna who is a 26 year old African-American emergency medical technician, was shot dead officers from the Louisville Metro Police Department on exactly March 13, 2020.

On March 13, 2020 three officers that were conducting a no-knock search warrant in Louisville, Kentucky entered Breonna's apartment. In the process gunfire was exchanged between the officers and Breonna's boyfriend Kenneth Walker who claims he believed that the officers were Intruders. The officers fired o we twenty shits with 8 shots hitting Breonna. She died in the hallway from the severe gun shoots from the officers.

 Breonna's death has caused a lot of anger among folks in the US even with celebrities and there have been calls and cry outs for justice.

In the letter posted on Beyoncé's official website on June 14, the spirit crooner urged the Attorney General to "commit to transparency in the investigation and prosecution of the officers' criminal conduct" and also investigate the police department response to Breonna's murder by officers of their department.

This is what Beyoncé's letter states: "Three months have passed -- and the LMPD's investigations have created more questions than answers. Their incident reports states that Ms. Taylor suffered no injuries -- yet we know she was shot at least eight times. The LMPD officers claim they announced themselves before forcing their way into Ms. Taylor's apartment -- but her boyfriend who was with her as well as several neighbors all say that this is untrue.

"Three months have passed -- and zero arrests have been made, and no officers have been fired. The LMPD’s investigation was turned over to your office, and yet all of the officers involved in the shooting remain employed by the LMPD. Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly and Officers Myles Cosgrove and Brett Hankison must be held accountable for their actions.

"Three months have passed -- and Breonna Taylor's family still awaits justice. Ms. Taylor's family has been able to take time to process and grieve. Instead they have been working tirelessly to rally the support of friends, their community, and the country to obtain justice for Breonna.

 She added in the letter saying: "Don't let this case fall into the pattern of no action after a terrible tragedy. With every death of a Black person at the hands of the police, there are two real tragedies: The death itself and the inaction and delays that follow it. This is your chance to end that pattern. Take swift and decisive action in charging the officer. The next months cannot look like the last three."

Beyoncé then beckoned her fans to sign a coinciding petition, which is located at the bottom of the letter, to help demand further justice for Breonna.
