Breonna Taylor’s Boyfriend Kenneth Walker Settles Lawsuits Against The City Of Lousiville For $2 Million
In the lawsuits, Walker claimed that the police violated his rights by not announcing themselves prior to bursting in his and Taylor’s home. He also argued that they used excessive force while in the residence by shooting Taylor, TMZ reports.
It is a point of controversy whether the cops knocked or not prior to entering the home.
The Louisville PD officers stand firm in their belief that they knocked and announced themselves several times before entering. They say Walker opened fire, which is what made the raid go left. After one officer was shot by Walker, they shot back and killed Taylor.
For the last two years, Walker said he didn’t hear anything and was protecting himself and Taylor when using his firearm.
