Beyoncé wrote to Kentucky Attorney General demanding justice for a black woman killed by police three months ago.
The superstar urged Daniel Cameron to bring charges against the three officers involved in Breonna Taylor‘s killing.
Taylor, who was a decorated emergency medical technician with no criminal record, was killed on March 13 in her apartment as police opened fire.
“Three months have passed — and the LMPD’s investigations have created more questions than answers. Three months have passed — and zero arrests have been made, and no officers have been fired,” Beyoncé wrote Sunday in an open letter.
Beyoncé pointed out that the AG’s office has both the power and the responsibility to bring justice to Taylor and demonstrate the value of a black woman’s life.
“Bring criminal charges against Jonathan Mattingly, Myles Cosgrove, and Brett Hankison. Commit to transparency in the investigation and prosecution of these officers’ criminal conduct. Investigate the LMPD’s response to Breonna Taylor’s murder, as well the pervasive practices that result in the repeated deaths of unarmed Black citizens,” she wrote in the letter.
