Breonna Taylor's mom Tamika Palmer tells JujuChangABC she's still seeking answers nearly three months after her daughter's death: 'I haven't had time to sit and grieve… I'm still trying to figure out, why did it have to come to her being murdered.'
Taylor died in her own apartment when police executed a no-knock warrant searching for a person who’d already been arrested. Her name has become a rallying cry in protests across the U.S.These are the memories Breonna Taylor's family remembers when they think back on her life in Louisville, Kentucky. At 26 years old, Taylor was an EMT with dreams of becoming a nurse.
Tamika Palmer speaks to ABC News about her daughter, Breonna Taylor, who was shot eight times by police in Louisville, Kentucky, as they executed a no-knock warrant. Under the impression that intruders were carrying out a home invasion, Walker grabbed his licensed gun and fired one round. In return the officers fired 20 rounds, eight of which hit Breonna.Flakes said she found out her cousin had been killed early the next morning while getting ready for work. When Taylor's best friend told her,"Bree's gone," she asked,"Going where?"
Preonia Flakes speaks to ABC News about finding out that her cousin, Breonna Taylor, was killed while asleep in her apartment when police carried out a no-knock warrant on March 13.Since her death, Flakes says it's hard to believe Taylor is gone and that she sometimes imagines Taylor on vacation with no phone, unable to reach out to anyone.
"When I got there … they told me to hold on, they'd get a detective over to talk to me, which they did," Palmer said."It took a couple of hours. He comes over. He asked if I knew if Breonna or Kenny had any enemies or anybody that would want to hurt them. And of course, no, absolutely not." "When we think about where black women aren't safe, they're not safe in the only place they're supposed to be," Crenshaw said."Black women typically get killed when police do raids."
Lee Merritt is the attorney for Tamika Palmer, whose daughter Breonna Taylor was killed March 13 while asleep in her apartment when police raided her apartment. Contrary to police officers' claims that they knocked on the door and identified themselves, Palmer says Walker, as well as his and Taylor's neighbors, said they never heard the police announce themselves. They told her they only heard the battering ram hitting the door, she said.
The operator asks if Taylor is alert and able to talk to Walker. He says her name and then begins crying as he screams,"Oh my God! Oh my God!"
