(Kenny worked for me at the factory I was plant manager at when I retired. In the two years he worked for me, I never heard the man say a bad word to anyone.)

The area they lived in was not a bad neighborhood. The apartments they lived in, on the other hand, were home to a few drug dealers. (That’s not uncommon here in Louisville. They shutdown the projects and did scattered site housing that caused this to happen across the city. Except of course in the affluent areas.)

I did not know Breonna but I do know she wasn’t an EMT when she was tragically shot. She was working as an Emergency Room Tech at a local hospital.

I agree Breonna should never have been killed. I don’t believe there is anything that connected her to her ex boyfriend except a former relationship.

Where I differ from the protesters is I see what happened as a tragic accident. I don’t believe it was racially motivated attack like the national media tries to make it out to be. That 12 million dollars her Momma got won’t bring her back.

Breonna’s death has brought about change.

1. It’s ended no knock warrants in the city and it’s inspired legislation to stop them in the state.
2. Police here are now required to have EMS on site whenever a warrant is served.
3. All police actions must be signed off by a senior officer.

At first glance I thought 12 million was too much but then I think how much is one of my daughters or sons lives worth.

There is tons connecting her to her ex. Dead bodies, lots of packages moving in and out of her place, his claims that she held and laundered drug money. She bailed him out on more than one occasion and visited him 2 dozen times in the pen. The warrant was for her apartment because they expected to find drugs and money. But you probably don't see that in the local media which wants to play up the innocent victim.

And it WASN'T a no knock warrant. Nobody involved says it was. The dispute is whether the police identified themselves before the firing started.
