A grand juror in the Breonna Taylor case who filed a court motion seeking the release of the grand jury's transcripts and permission from a judge to speak publicly did so out of a concern for truth and transparency, the juror's lawyer says.
During the arraignment, Judge Ann Bailey Smith ordered that the recording of the grand jury proceedings be filed with the court by noon Wednesday. Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron had faced calls from the governor and mayor, among others, to post as much evidence as possible online. Last week, he said he would not because it would"compromise" a federal investigation into the incident"and violate a prosecutor's ethical duties.
"While there are six possible homicide charges under Kentucky law, these charges are not applicable to the facts before us because our investigation showed — and the grand jury agreed — that Mattingly and Cosgrove were justified in the return of deadly fire after having been fired upon," Cameron said at a news conference last Wednesday.
Walker has said police did not identify themselves and that he mistook them for intruders. He fired his gun once after officers broke down Taylor's door March 13. Cameron said that a single witness corroborated officers' accounts that they knocked and announced themselves.
"That issue has not been directly addressed," Glogower said."And those are exactly the concerns that our client has, that we believe other grand jurors probably have and that the public has."
