Who was Breonna Taylor? I had the honor of asking her sister, Juniyah, who is one of the most impressive 20-year-olds I have ever met.

My whole team is still thinking about the interview. Can’t wait to share the first part of it tonight at 11pm on #VICENewsTonight Image
Infinitely grateful to Juniyah for trusting us with her and her sister’s story. I will never understand her pain
I’m also lucky to work with a team as smart, talented, and compassionate as the one that made this happen: @jceballosv, @NicoleBozorgmir, @RialdaZukic, Ben Bishop, Jeb Banegas, @ScottMulligan12

Some news: For the past 2 years, we've been working on a really ambitious investigation into Louisville's Police Department. The investigation, which is divided into two separate hours—one about sexual assault, another about search warrants—is finally airing tonight and tomorrow
The first part focuses on a pattern of sexual misconduct by officers, and repeated failure of LMPD to take allegations seriously. By not thoroughly investigating complaints, LMPD has allowed problem officers to continue acting unchecked, and in some cases, victimize more women
The investigation is based on hundreds of internal documents, recordings going back more than a decade, and interviews with multiple accusers, as well as current and former members of LMPD—including, even, a whistleblower interview with a current LMPD Sex Crimes Detective

Ever since law enforcement killed David McAtee, the beloved owner of a popular Louisville BBQ joint, police have made it seem like it was just an honest mistake. But there's more to the story. Much more.

Please read and share our investigation vice.com/en/article/5db…
Here's our investigative documentary, which was just published online

Inside the Deadly Louisville Police 'Power Play' That Killed David McAtee:
We obtained unreleased internal documents, photos, and body camera footage, as well other portions of the internal police investigation into David McAtee's death

New: LMPD Sergeant Jonathan Mattingly filed counter claims against Breonna Taylor’s boyfriend Kenneth Walker for battery, assault, and intentional emotional distress. He and his lawyer seem to be swinging for the fences here. They want punishment for Walker and money for damages
Here's the battery claim. It says Walker shot Mattingly "willingly or maliciously," and that Mattingly is entitled to compensatory damages and punitive damages
Here's the assault claim

Breaking: A judge has ruled in favor of the anonymous Breonna Taylor grand juror, meaning the juror CAN speak publicly about the grand jury proceedings

“This Court finds that the traditional justification for secrecy in this matter are no longer relevant"
" IT IS HEREBY ORDERED Anonymous Grand Juror #1's motion to release grand jury proceedings is GRANTED...Any participant in those proceedings, including grand jurors, may disclose such information, subject to the trial court's order regarding"
Reminder: The grand juror filed the motion because, as their representation explained, they felt like Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron was using them as a shield. And a second juror has since come forward, expressing a similar desire to be able to speak publicly

Our documentary on Breonna Taylor’s case is now up online. We recreated the night Breonna Taylor's was killed using previously unreleased body camera footage, video of officer interviews, internal documents and much more
The doc gives a much more complete sense of what happened the night she was killed, including the immediate chaos, the long list of serious policy violations, the complete mess of a crime scene, and the inconsistencies and contradictions in testimonies by the officers involved
It also compares what Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron told the public to what the evidence actually shows, and how that evidence was (or in some cases wasn't) presented to the grand jury

We obtained hundreds of hours of body cams/officer interviews, as well as thousands of documents related to Breonna Taylor’s death. And they tell a more complicated story than the public heard

A lot of hard work went into our, documentary which airs tonight. I hope you’ll watch
The Special will show in more detail than has previously been made public what happened on the night Breonna Taylor died, and compare it to what the grand jury heard. It airs at 11pm EST on VICE, and will be available online afterwards. I’ll share the link as soon as it’s live
This was a team effort going all the way back to May. The doc is as much my colleagues’ as it is mine. Shout out to my producers and co-reporters @NicoleBozorgmir @bellecushing @jceballosv & @AniUcar, our editors Jeb Banegas and Andrew Patterson, and our Senior Producer @musefi
