Breonna Taylor’s story has not been as widely told, or created as much impact as George Floyd’s horrible murder, and that needs to change. Breonna was killed by police while sleeping in her home on March, 13th. There have been no charges brought on the police officers who shot her, and no explanation given to her family.
Breonna’s story deserves our attention.

Within that website, you’ll find information to walk you through how to contact the authorities, and what requests need to be made.

Greetings,
I am an American who wishes Breonna Taylor was able to celebrate her birthday today, June 5th. Since her beloved life is lost, and there is no coming back from that tragedy, I believe that she, and her family deserve respect and justice by implementing the following requests:
- The Mayor and City council members need to address the use of force by LMPD.
- Fire and revoke the pensions of the officers that murdered Breonna. Arrest, charge, and convict them for this crime.
- Provide all necessary information to a local, independent civilian community police accountability council #CPAC.
- Create policy for transparent investigation process due to law enforcement misconduct.
- Eliminate No Knock warrants(Updated 6-4-2020)
Breonna deserves justice, honor, and attention.
Sincerely,
Send this email to:
