Breonna Taylor family lawyer files new lawsuit alleging Louisville police withheld body camera records
Fox News
A new lawsuit filed on behalf of the family of Breonna Taylor last week alleges that the Louisville Metro Police Department has withheld records that would show there is body camera footage of the fatal March 2020 raid, and therefore "misinformation has been presented to the general public."
Police officials and state Attorney General Daniel Cameron have previously stated that no body-camera footage exists that captured the aid resulting in Taylor’s death on March 13, 2020. Authorities did release body-camera footage from officers responding to the scene after the shooting. LMPD officials have maintained that officers were not required to wear body-cameras during the operation, and those involved either were not wearing their cameras or did not manually activate them. But the lawsuit argues there is a second way the department’s Axon-brand cameras can activate.More Related News
