This, exactly. We’re making determinations of guilt or innocence based upon supposition, narratives, and press brain storming. The Grand Jury made the determination not to find a true bill or indict for murder. They had the facts. We didn’t. From a civil prospective, 1/

Breonna Taylor’s estate received a huge payout of 12 million for her wrongful death and conscious pain and suffering. That’s incredible for anywhere especially Kentucky. To place that in perspective, Eric Garner who’s estate was repped by Jonathan Moore - excellent attorney /2

recieved $5.9 million dollars. The State did the right thing here in settling for that amount instead of torturing her family for years in civil litigation - Qualified Immunity - like my clients experienced in the Mafia Cop case which lasted nearly 10 years. We may not like /3

what the Grand Jury found but the alternative to procedure and the rule of law is chaos which our enemies want. Our legal system is not infallible but one of the best in the world. The alternatives are star chamber justice and mob rule. My personal feelings since many want /4

to know this is that these officers broke into the wrong apartment. They didn’t know that at the time and were suddenly fired upon. They returned file with the intent to disable the shooter. When the dust cleared, they realized they messed up badly and here we are. There’s /5

a strong QI argument for a civil case, which is atrocious but that is the nature of the law now. Kentucky waived those defenses and paid her estate an 8 figure sum. They didn’t need to do that. X
