已经四个多月了布莱娜·泰勒当三名路易斯维尔市警察执行禁止敲门的搜查令时，她在自己的公寓被枪杀。
泰勒去世后，几天、几周、几个月过去了，她的家人在她死后庆祝了她的27岁生日，一名警官布雷特·汉克森被开除出警局。迈尔斯·科斯格罗维警官和乔纳森·马蒂林中士仍在履行行政职责。
路易斯维尔市市长格雷格·费舍尔(Greg Fischer)在周四晚上的一次简报会上表示，他对调查过程感到“失望”，并希望进行系统性改革，以提高社区的透明度。
路易斯维尔市长格雷格·费舍尔在肯塔基州路易斯维尔中央公园的新闻发布会上发言。2020年6月10日。
自泰勒3月13日死亡以来，州和联邦执法机构已经启动了刑事调查，但有关这一过程的公开信息已被州法律KRS 67c依法锁定。
费希尔说，这部法律“实质上是对我在公开场合就LMPD公共廉政机构正在进行的任何调查的相关事宜所能说的话施加了一个限制令。尽管我们不想危及正在进行的调查，也不想损害官员或平民的权利，但我们必须能够处理公众了解正在发生的事情的权利。”
费希尔说在几乎YouTube上发布的20分钟视频泰勒的死对她的家人和整个城市来说是一个“未愈合的伤口”。
2020年7月14日，抗议者坐在肯塔基司法部长丹尼尔·卡梅伦家的前院，高喊布莱娜·泰勒的名字并呼吁正义，警察在他家外站岗。
虽然泰勒的案件并没有引发最近的全球抗议，但抗议者发起了抗议热情地保留了她的名字在他们呼吁结束警察对有色人种的暴行的号召中。
26岁的泰勒和她的男朋友肯尼斯·沃克在他们的公寓里，他们被从睡梦中惊醒。
在泰勒和沃克不知情的情况下，马丁利、汉克森和科斯格罗维用一把撞锤敲下了他们的前门。根据搜查令，警方对泰勒的公寓执行了不敲门搜查令，因为他们怀疑她与两名已知的毒贩一起参与贩毒活动。

27岁的沃克拨打了911，因为他认为有一个入侵者在家里，并用他合法拥有的枪支开火。根据代表泰勒一家的萨姆·阿吉亚尔和罗尼塔·贝克在4月份提起的非法死亡诉讼，警察还击了25发子弹，至少打死了泰勒。
“我们希望市长的呼吁得到实施和支持，以防止进一步的悲剧。但我们不能也不会忘记导致这些讨论的悲剧。”“在所有杀害布莱娜·泰勒的凶手被解雇、逮捕和定罪之前，她、她的家人和路易斯维尔的人民都无法得到公正的审判。”
费舍尔在周四分享了泰勒案件的最新情况:他说警察局的公共诚信部门已经完成了调查并将文件交给司法部长丹尼尔·卡梅伦的办公室。
2020年6月6日，肯塔基州路易斯维尔市，路易斯维尔市市长格雷格·费舍尔对聚集在一起守夜纪念布莱娜·泰勒的一群人讲话。
费舍尔说:“我没有控制或影响的过程中，或额外的独立调查正在进行的司法部和联邦调查局。”“我和你一样对这一切花费的时间感到沮丧。。。。但在我们等待这些调查结果的同时，我并不是在等待路易斯维尔的种族正义事业，尤其是公共安全改革的需要。”
费希尔承认，司法系统发生了一些显著的变化，包括签署了《布莱诺纳法》，该法禁止无敲门搜查令，并规定执行搜查令的警官必须使用人体摄像头。
26岁的布莱娜·泰勒被肯塔基州路易斯维尔的警察开枪打死，据称他们执行了搜查令，搜查错了家。
“这些都是实质性的改变，但我们知道这些还不够，”费舍尔说，然后概述了进一步的变化，他正在寻求“确保更大的透明度和问责制。”
费希尔正寻求呼吁肯塔基州警方独立调查警官参与的枪击事件，修改KRS 67c州法律，加强民事审查委员会，设立一个监察长职位，并与警察工会合作，在警官的正当程序和社区透明度之间建立更大的平衡。
“这对我们的城市和国家来说都是一个关键时刻。因为布莱娜·泰勒的国家利益，美国的目光聚焦在路易斯维尔。让我们展示一下我们已经知道的事实——在我们的城市，我们将公民的自豪感、智慧、勇气和同情心结合起来，成为一个从悲剧走向变革的美国城市。”

Louisville mayor expresses frustration at slow pace of Breonna Taylor case, lays out police reform plans
It has been over four months sinceBreonna Taylorwas gunned down in her apartment when three Louisville Metro police officers executed a no-knock warrant.
As the days, weeks and months passed since Taylor's death, her family posthumously celebrated her 27th birthday and one officer, Brett Hankison, was fired from the department. Officer Myles Cosgrove and Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly remain on administrative duty.
The mayor of Louisville, Greg Fischer, said during a briefing on Thursday evening that he is "frustrated" with the investigation process and wants to make systemic changes in order to be more transparent with the community.
Since Taylor's March 13 death, state and federal law enforcement agencies have launched criminal investigations, but public information about the process has been legally locked down by state law KRS 67c.
The law "imposes essentially a gag order on what I can say publicly about matters related to any kind of investigation being conducted by LMPD’s Public Integrity Unit," said Fischer, adding, "While we don’t want to jeopardize an ongoing investigation or compromise the rights of officers or civilians, we have to be able to address the public’s right to know what’s happening."
Fischer said during the almost20-minute video posted on YouTubethat Taylor's death is "an open wound" for her family and the entire city.
While Taylor's case did not initiate recent protest worldwide, protesters havepassionately kept her namewithin their rallying cry to end police brutality against people of color.
Taylor, 26, and her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, were in their apartment when they were awakened out of their sleep.
Unbeknownst to Taylor and Walker, Mattingly, Hankison and Cosgrove were using a battering ram to knock down their front door. Police executed a no-knock warrant for Taylor's apartment as they suspected her of participating in drug trafficking activity with two known drug dealers, according to the search warrant.
Walker, 27, called 911 as he believed an intruder was in the home and opened fire with his legally owned firearm. The officers fired back over 25 rounds and killed Taylor with at least eight bullets, according to a wrongful death lawsuit filed in April by Sam Aguiar and Lonita Baker, who represent the Taylor family.
"We hope the mayor’s calls are enacted and supported to prevent further tragedies. But we can not and will not forget the tragedy that has led to these very discussions," said Ben Crump, who also represents the Taylor family. "Until all of Breonna Taylor’s killers are fired, arrested, and convicted, there remains no justice for her, her family, and the people of Louisville."
Fischer did share one update on Taylor's case on Thursday: He said the police department's Public Integrity Unithad completed its investigationand delivered the file to Attorney General Daniel Cameron's office.
"I have no control or influence over that process, or the additional independent investigations being conducted by the Department of Justice and FBI," said Fischer. "And I am as frustrated as you are by how long it’s all taking. . . . But while we are waiting for these investigative outcomes, I’m not waiting to pursue the cause of racial justice in Louisville, and particularly the need for public safety reform."
Fischer acknowledged that there have been some notable changes to the justice system, including the signing of Breonna's Law, which bans no-knock warrants and mandates the use of body cameras for police officers serving search warrants.
"These are substantial changes, but we know they are not enough,” said Fischer, before outlining further changes he’s seeking to "ensure greater transparency and accountability."
Fischer is seeking to call on the Kentucky State Police to independently investigate officer-involved shootings, change the KRS 67c state law, strengthen the civilian review board, create an inspector general position, and work with the police union to create greater balance between officers' due process and transparency with the community.
"This is a critical moment for our city as well as our country. Because of the national interest in justice for Breonna Taylor, America’s eyes are on Louisville. Let’s demonstrate what we already know -- that in our city, we have the combination of civic pride, wisdom, courage and compassion to be that American city that takes itself from tragedy to transformation," said Fischer.
