A lawsuit claims that there is a good likelihood that police bodycam footage exists of the police raid of Breonna Taylor’s apartment, despite the Louisville Metro Police Department claiming that it doesn’t exist, according to CBS News.
Attorney Sam Aguiar filed the lawsuit and has been working with Taylor’s family.
Taylor was killed by the LMPD on March 13, 2020, after they executed a no-knock warrant. She was shot five times. None of the officers involved in her death were indicted for killing Taylor. One officer was indicted for allegedly putting her neighbor in danger when bullets entered their apartment.
According to the lawsuit, “It would have been difficult for most of the LMPD members with body cameras and who were associated with CID [Crime/Investigative Division] events at Breonna’s and/or Elliot Ave. on March 12/13, 2020 to not have had their Axon body cameras activated at one point or another.”
Aguiar is asking a judge to force the LMPD to hand over any bodycam information.
