<v Speaker 1>of street politicians, the place where the streets and in

0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>politics meet's man. Today is today our show today. Um,

0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:24.919
<v Speaker 1>we're in Louisville, Kentucky. You see, my son and I

0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:28.440
<v Speaker 1>are in this little space here. Um. We've had to

0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:31.840
<v Speaker 1>change what we were originally planning for the show because

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.480
<v Speaker 1>we found out just yesterday that we needed to fly

0:00:35.800 --> 0:00:41.120
<v Speaker 1>quickly one day turn around to Kentucky because the Feds

0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:45.920
<v Speaker 1>were going to be meeting with the family of Brianna Taylor. Uh.

0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>And so we until Freedom got up, packed up and

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>we came to Louisville and waited after you know, for

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>their meeting to take place for us to learn, um,

0:00:57.080 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 1>what the Feds were up to. And they came for

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.960
<v Speaker 1>we were to say that they're going to charge four

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:07.600
<v Speaker 1>officers uh in the murder of Brianna Taylor. And it's

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>significant because all of you have been with us on

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 1>this process and throughout this process. This has been a journey.

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.039
<v Speaker 1>It's been two years uh and a few months since

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 1>we met Brianna Taylor's family and we took you along

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.479
<v Speaker 1>with us and you've been here and you invested by

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:27.240
<v Speaker 1>sending your money, you signed petitions, uh, you showed up

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>at marches and and and did what you could to

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:32.520
<v Speaker 1>be a part of a movement for a black woman,

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>a young black woman. And so today feels good. It

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:40.679
<v Speaker 1>feels good because, uh, finally it has been proven that

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>we are not crazy. That the Department of Justice knows

0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 1>what happened to Brianna Taylor is it was wrong. And

0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.160
<v Speaker 1>that's just the only that's the easiest way that it

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>just was wrong. It was And everybody who tried to

0:01:55.960 --> 0:02:00.080
<v Speaker 1>cover it up. I then you Cameron and inside and

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:04.840
<v Speaker 1>everybody in his department they knew. You know, the evidence

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 1>that the Feds got was already in law. You know,

0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 1>the Feds had to come in here and find one

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.359
<v Speaker 1>individual who was able to tie this all together. That

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 1>means that the state had the same information and they

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 1>willing fly with that's the word. We just learned woefully

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>what hell that evidence? And they willfully deprived Brianna Taylor

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>a family of justice. And they lie, they lied. And

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm Daniel Cameron, I mean we it's sad. A black

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:43.520
<v Speaker 1>man that ain't worth the skin. He has listen all

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 1>skinful king king folk, and this man is definitely one

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>of those individuals that proved that saying to be right. Man. Today,

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:53.840
<v Speaker 1>we just left a press conference where we were joined

0:02:53.840 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 1>by our brother Benjamin Crump, Attorney same Agguie Law Aggie

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 1>are the ellis Island Right Age are our other co

0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>founders of Until Freedom, Angelo Pinto Um Lindas ar Sore.

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 1>We also were joined by the Louisville Urban Leagues, Sono's

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 1>and a host of other people who did the Hope.

0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.960
<v Speaker 1>We went and we did the press conference in Breakway.

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you don't know Rereeway is it is

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:31.520
<v Speaker 1>ground zero of the movement for Brianna Taylors, where all

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>the individuals in Louisville and worldwide came and slept in

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.760
<v Speaker 1>the square all night long and every day and they

0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>would march and they would rallied and they would demand

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>justice from Brianna Taylor. So it was only fitting that

0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>we did the press conference there in which you know,

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Benjamin Crump announced the charges that would go out and

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:58.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't, I don't know. It was surreal.

0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>It was surreal for me. You just really like wow,

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>because I had been in that same place when Daniel

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Cameron told us that there was only gonna charge somebody

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 1>for shooting at the walls, and I remember that feeling.

0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I remember standing next to Tamika and standing next to

0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:17.760

<v Speaker 1>was definitely one of those individuals responsible, you know, lifting

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.920
<v Speaker 1>and being on the front line every day, and in

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:40.200

0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:47.880
<v Speaker 1>window pane. Um, And I I know that not being there,

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:55.520
<v Speaker 1>the space, but then having your sister killed, it must

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:57.880

<v Speaker 1>We cried together, we laughed together. You know, we've done

0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:58.760
<v Speaker 1>everything together. So today, you know, when we actually heard

0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:02.320
<v Speaker 1>that there would be some level of accountability, you know,

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:06.079
<v Speaker 1>that people would be in charge, and that they acknowledged

0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:09.040
<v Speaker 1>that Brianna Taylor should be alive, Like you know, we

0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.880
<v Speaker 1>heard over and over how crazy we was and how

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:15.200
<v Speaker 1>she did this and people. You know, we went back

0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:19.440
<v Speaker 1>and forth on the internet arguing these things, and today,

0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, they acknowledge that Brianna Taylor life's live life

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.480
<v Speaker 1>was wrongly taking, you know, and she should be alive,

0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and people colluded to hide and do things that led

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:34.880
<v Speaker 1>to this lady depth. So that for me, you know,

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 1>that part of it is definitely refreshing, man, and being

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.640
<v Speaker 1>able to to be there with you and hold you guys.

0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:44.679
<v Speaker 1>And because we kept saying, man, it's a good day

0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.440
<v Speaker 1>to arrest the cops, and today was the day that

0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:50.199
<v Speaker 1>they actually arrested the cops. Man. So I just want

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 1>to say that first of all, but as an attorney,

0:11:54.040 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 1>line need to you know, did you have believe that

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:06.480
<v Speaker 1>this day would actually happen? Um? I went back and

0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>forth initially, you know, as to Mika says, when she

0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:14.640
<v Speaker 1>first met with us, I was very hesitant to say, oh, yeah,

0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:18.360
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna get the officers arrested. But it was not

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.440
<v Speaker 1>because I didn't think it could happen. But it was

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:27.440
<v Speaker 1>because I'm always hesitant to make promises for someone else. Um.

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.880
<v Speaker 1>But once we started to dig through the evidence and

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:35.080
<v Speaker 1>we began to uncover what led to Brianna's murder. To me,

0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:37.720
<v Speaker 1>there's no way that she should not have been charged.

0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:40.240
<v Speaker 1>But then we were here, we are two and a

0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 1>half years later. You know, we had the debacle that

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:47.320
<v Speaker 1>the Kentucky Attorney General did, We had the fact that

0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>no one in Kentucky or Louisville would do anything. And

0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:54.480
<v Speaker 1>so as time went on, you know, I was holding

0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:56.720
<v Speaker 1>on to hope because I had to be you know,

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.520
<v Speaker 1>make sure that I could instill continue to instill hoping

0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.880
<v Speaker 1>to Tamika and Jenia. But I would be lying if

0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I sit here instead that I was like certain that

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.640
<v Speaker 1>we would get justice. But you know, and we say

0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:10.520
<v Speaker 1>as an attorney, you know, I always talked about being

0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:14.320
<v Speaker 1>a former prosecutor. It's said, it was just within me

0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 1>that I'm like, we we can't not get justice here,

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.719
<v Speaker 1>like if there's any case too, because we knew of

0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the lies um we saw when they tried to do

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.480
<v Speaker 1>the butcher job, you know, on Brianna's character, after they

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>were called on their lives, and so it would have

0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:33.880
<v Speaker 1>been very hard for me to not come to this day.

0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.440
<v Speaker 1>But it was hard for me to keep hope that

0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 1>we would arrive at this day. You you said eight

0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety four days seven, Jamika, you've been talking

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:47.839
<v Speaker 1>about that. What of the eight hundred and seventy four

0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>day has been like like March to thirteen? Are every day?

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Was um every day that you have to explain to

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody that happened, what's wrong. It's like another slap in

0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the face every day that someone attacks you on the

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 1>internet and person yelled out these things make these accusations.

0:14:11.720 --> 0:14:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Was another attack and and it happened for eight hundred

0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and seventy four days. M M M M. And the

0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>and the charges, Attorney Veka are so strong, right, not

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:25.600
<v Speaker 1>enough people have been charged. We wish they were more,

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:30.600
<v Speaker 1>but nonetheless the charges are so strong. Talk about that.

0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Did you think when you got a call saying the

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.680
<v Speaker 1>fans want to meet with you, uh and and and

0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:40.040
<v Speaker 1>and the family, did you think the charges would be

0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:44.320
<v Speaker 1>at this level. I had no idea they would be

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.040
<v Speaker 1>at this level. I definitely didn't expect to go and

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:49.800
<v Speaker 1>meet with the FBI today and they tell us that

0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:53.320
<v Speaker 1>three of the officers that were charged are facing up

0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 1>to life. And when I heard that, I think it

0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:58.280
<v Speaker 1>part of me like I wanted to do a court

0:14:58.280 --> 0:14:59.880
<v Speaker 1>wheel in the room. But you know I couldn't have

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>within the FBI, but it was like life life life,

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:08.800
<v Speaker 1>like you know, the and so it was just there

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>was a sense of vindication. And even within talking to them,

0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:18.480
<v Speaker 1>they recognized that when they explained why they couldn't charge

0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:21.920
<v Speaker 1>all of the officers, we understood that because the standard

0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.880
<v Speaker 1>in federal charges it is much higher than it is

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 1>on a state level. When you're talking about depriving some

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 1>one of their civil rights, it's wilful and so at

0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 1>that moment you have to be able to prove that

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:35.920
<v Speaker 1>they intended to deprive her. And so as they explained it,

0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.640
<v Speaker 1>as Brett Hankinson, he set off that that round the

0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:42.600
<v Speaker 1>gunfire that led the other officers to begin to fire,

0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and so at that point where they willfully we always

0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:48.560
<v Speaker 1>said they were reckless, right, but that's not the standard

0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:51.240
<v Speaker 1>that you need in federal charges. So that's what when

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.400
<v Speaker 1>we talk about people not doing their job at the

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.360
<v Speaker 1>state and local level, that's where they should have been

0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 1>charged because of the reckless their reckless behavior led to

0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:02.240
<v Speaker 1>to Brianna Steff. But we could we never could just

0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:06.120
<v Speaker 1>say that they were intentional. We've always said they were reckless. Um.

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:09.120
<v Speaker 1>But Brett Hankinson. It was because he was shooting blindly

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:11.560
<v Speaker 1>into you know, he couldn't see where he was shooting

0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 1>through curtains, through the furniture, basically blinds and so that's

0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 1>how they were able to get him for willful Um.

0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>So I didn't expect it, but I was pleasantly suprised, surprised.

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that it needed to be. I know

0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:29.760
<v Speaker 1>people there were some people that was like, well, maybe

0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:31.920
<v Speaker 1>they're just gonna do the perjury charge. And I'm like,

0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>if they just doing perjury, like, I'm not gonna jump

0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>up and down about a perjury church because we knew

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:46.800
<v Speaker 1>it was much more um and because Brianna should be here. Yeah. Um,

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Jenia Tamika, when y'all first heard that, when you heard

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:55.280
<v Speaker 1>these charges, what what did you say to yourself? What

0:16:55.320 --> 0:17:05.480
<v Speaker 1>was what was the first thing that came to your mind? Finally? Um,

0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:10.480
<v Speaker 1>it was finally it was a whole lot of cuss

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:17.560
<v Speaker 1>words in my head. It was yeah, like uh, and

0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it hit for Tamika. You know, you get

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>to watch from a from the I got to watch

0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:25.200
<v Speaker 1>being outside of Tamika's body. I was sitting right next

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.560
<v Speaker 1>to her, and it was when they said, you know,

0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:32.600
<v Speaker 1>we're charging them with deprivation of Brianna Taylor's civil rights.

0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>And then they added which resulted in the death of

0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:38.719
<v Speaker 1>Brianna Taylor. And that's when it set in for for

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Tamika and and it hit home. So if you talk

0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 1>about that a little bit to Mika, just when they

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:48.800
<v Speaker 1>added that resulting in the death here that again it's

0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.480
<v Speaker 1>like I've been saying this for eight hundred and seventy

0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:56.760
<v Speaker 1>four days, you know, and to hear somebody agreed that

0:17:56.960 --> 0:18:00.639
<v Speaker 1>what we've been seeing was right is amazing reason. It

0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 1>doesn't change what happened to her, but um, it just

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 1>to know that somebody's about to Other people saw what

0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:12.680
<v Speaker 1>we saw. Other people are recognizing and willing to say

0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:16.240
<v Speaker 1>it's time to take action. It's time for these people

0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to pay for that. It's the emotion was I remember

0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:32.560
<v Speaker 1>losing my breath and and like feeling like I was

0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:38.320
<v Speaker 1>gasping for the next heir to finish listening just to

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:41.439
<v Speaker 1>hear what they're saying and then trying to comprehend it.

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:46.119
<v Speaker 1>And it's such a holder opposite of the meeting you

0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:52.680
<v Speaker 1>had with the Attorney General Daniel Cameron when he died

0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:58.240
<v Speaker 1>and as far as I'm concerned, uh, he committed. I'm

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.680
<v Speaker 1>still trying to find the word. I want to call

0:19:01.800 --> 0:19:04.280
<v Speaker 1>him a criminal, but I need the right language. I'm

0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:08.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna I'm gonna get it one day. But that meeting

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:12.080
<v Speaker 1>that you had where they called you to a place

0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and and I remember distinctly Attorney sam agyar An, Attorney

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>La Needa Baker telling the State of Kentucky, do not

0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:25.640
<v Speaker 1>bring to make a palmer an hour away from her

0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:28.320
<v Speaker 1>home to hear bad news. You could tell that all

0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 1>on the phone, and they still let you drive all

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:34.680
<v Speaker 1>the way. And it's like it's like it was disrespect.

0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 1>It was it was like it was intentional, intentionally done

0:19:39.320 --> 0:19:44.159
<v Speaker 1>to turn a night in your stomach right having you

0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:47.360
<v Speaker 1>because we have to stop thinking that these people they

0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:50.600
<v Speaker 1>just made a mistake or made you known. Know this,

0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:55.399
<v Speaker 1>this is diabolical. It's intentional, right to have you drive

0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:58.000
<v Speaker 1>there for him to to tell you that they would

0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:01.120
<v Speaker 1>not bring charges and that they only charged that would

0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:05.119
<v Speaker 1>in fact um that would be going to court or

0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:10.479
<v Speaker 1>whatever was for the wall, a bullet going through a wall.

0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:17.080
<v Speaker 1>It's such a difference between yesterday and today. Daniel Cameron,

0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:21.600
<v Speaker 1>I need to that, I need you to unpack for

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:27.520
<v Speaker 1>me how much criminal activity took place in terms of

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:32.760
<v Speaker 1>what this man did not do. I mean, he just

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 1>completely there. There was mouthfeasons of office. He is elected

0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:40.280
<v Speaker 1>by the citizens of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, and he

0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>did everything to go against what our laws tell him

0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:47.919
<v Speaker 1>he should do as a prosecutor. He did not allow

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:52.679
<v Speaker 1>the jury to deliberate as it relates to churches with Brianna.

0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:57.720
<v Speaker 1>He intentionally just ignored evidence that was right in front

0:20:57.720 --> 0:20:59.359
<v Speaker 1>of him. By the time he got that case, he

0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 1>knew that there was a line of lines can contained

0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:04.760
<v Speaker 1>within the search warrant. Had he done a little bit

0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:07.240
<v Speaker 1>of work, he would have known that they did a

0:21:07.359 --> 0:21:10.640
<v Speaker 1>cover up after. But no, he decided he was going

0:21:10.720 --> 0:21:14.760
<v Speaker 1>to being bad and want to continue to be endorsed

0:21:14.840 --> 0:21:17.240
<v Speaker 1>and and and loved and favored by f O P

0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:22.160
<v Speaker 1>and the Republican Attorney General's Association, such that he did

0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:28.560
<v Speaker 1>not do his job. Um he he He's an embarrassment

0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>to the legal profession because you have jurors coming forward

0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:37.239
<v Speaker 1>saying he did not do what he was supposed to do.

0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Like I mean, how often do you see where the

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:41.800
<v Speaker 1>jurors that the very jurors that you were presenting in

0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:45.440
<v Speaker 1>front of saying you did a horrible job. You left

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:49.560
<v Speaker 1>them feeling like they failed because they were not able

0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:52.960
<v Speaker 1>to deliberate and bring justice for Brianna Taylor. So he's

0:21:52.960 --> 0:21:57.679
<v Speaker 1>an embarrassment um and the legal profession. And he lied

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>because he said, ever, the reason why the jurors came

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:05.040
<v Speaker 1>forward is because he tried to make it seen like

0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:09.520
<v Speaker 1>they all like the jurors decided that they I find

0:22:09.600 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 1>any charges against the officers for Brianna Taylor, and that

0:22:13.680 --> 0:22:15.920
<v Speaker 1>was not true. And the jurors said, no, we never

0:22:16.000 --> 0:22:19.720
<v Speaker 1>received any charges that we could even consider. So he

0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 1>lied and the ship and then further he said, had

0:22:22.640 --> 0:22:26.240
<v Speaker 1>we received any charges, we would haven't died. They went

0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:32.119
<v Speaker 1>further and said it so we were you just sitting U.

0:22:32.920 --> 0:22:36.359
<v Speaker 1>I remember that day. It was the longest ride home

0:22:36.680 --> 0:22:39.439
<v Speaker 1>I had ever experienced in my life, to only be

0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:43.639
<v Speaker 1>an hour away from home. I remember it because it

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:47.679
<v Speaker 1>was a hundred and ninety four days. It was a

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:53.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety four days. And he carned me there

0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:59.800
<v Speaker 1>and and pretended to care, pretended to have done this job,

0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 1>pretended to have stood up for Brianna. And remember to Micase,

0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:09.840
<v Speaker 1>he pretended to make He made you believe that the

0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:12.560
<v Speaker 1>wanton endangerment charges were for Brianna, and I had to

0:23:12.560 --> 0:23:15.040
<v Speaker 1>tell you in the parking lot that it was for

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 1>the neighbors. He's he's very sick, and at this point,

0:23:23.119 --> 0:23:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand how he doesn't get criminally charged as well.

0:23:30.000 --> 0:23:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I agree, I mean, I think because what he did.

0:23:33.520 --> 0:23:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I feel like it should be of very

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:44.280
<v Speaker 1>like high importance to somebody that an Attorney general participated

0:23:44.880 --> 0:23:48.840
<v Speaker 1>in the obstruction of justice as it relates to a

0:23:48.880 --> 0:23:53.200
<v Speaker 1>woman being murdered. This is this should be a high

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 1>level of of of like concern or something about this

0:23:56.840 --> 0:24:01.000
<v Speaker 1>because this, imagine what they're doing in his office. Imagine

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.600
<v Speaker 1>this was in front of the world. The public get

0:24:03.720 --> 0:24:06.399
<v Speaker 1>got a chance to see and not and and and

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:10.280
<v Speaker 1>if it were not for Kristen clark uh the head

0:24:10.280 --> 0:24:13.480
<v Speaker 1>of the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice,

0:24:13.720 --> 0:24:16.960
<v Speaker 1>and of course her boss, the Attorney General, Merrick Garland,

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:20.880
<v Speaker 1>if it were not for them asking the tough questions,

0:24:20.920 --> 0:24:24.800
<v Speaker 1>this would have gone unchecked. No one would know about

0:24:24.840 --> 0:24:27.920
<v Speaker 1>what happened here except us, the people who they said,

0:24:27.920 --> 0:24:31.760
<v Speaker 1>we're crazy. Yeah, I mean, and I think it's important,

0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Like when we talk about I want to go back

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:35.879
<v Speaker 1>on the charges a little bit. I do want the

0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:39.960
<v Speaker 1>listeners to realize that importance when we talk about they

0:24:40.000 --> 0:24:43.760
<v Speaker 1>could have simply stopped with the indictment by saying that

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:48.440
<v Speaker 1>these officers engaged in the willful deprivation of Brianna Taylor's

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:53.560
<v Speaker 1>constitutional rights. When they added that result in her death,

0:24:53.600 --> 0:24:57.080
<v Speaker 1>that thump, that violating our civil rights up to a

0:24:57.119 --> 0:24:59.440
<v Speaker 1>whole another level. Like on the state charge, it's basically

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:03.920
<v Speaker 1>murder like so, so they could have stopped without adding

0:25:04.000 --> 0:25:07.840
<v Speaker 1>results in Brianna Taylor's stuff. So the Department of Justice

0:25:07.840 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 1>has specifically, you know, said and as they used the words,

0:25:11.240 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>they've alleged that the conduct of these officers, and but

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:18.800
<v Speaker 1>for the conduct of these officers, Brianna would have been here.

0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:20.720
<v Speaker 1>They had no right to be at her house in

0:25:20.760 --> 0:25:23.320
<v Speaker 1>the first place. And that's the things that you know,

0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Cameron tried to skirt around. You get the the

0:25:26.200 --> 0:25:30.320
<v Speaker 1>the social media or what do we call keyboard warriors

0:25:30.359 --> 0:25:34.359
<v Speaker 1>trying to make allegations about Brianna Taylor and her lifestyle

0:25:34.480 --> 0:25:36.520
<v Speaker 1>and and this and that. But now we know all

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:38.879
<v Speaker 1>of that was a lie. And that's what these officers

0:25:39.000 --> 0:25:44.880
<v Speaker 1>did to cover up what they knew had been um

0:25:45.359 --> 0:25:49.679
<v Speaker 1>had been uncovered, I asked, but I want to know

0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:54.320
<v Speaker 1>from y'all, like, honestly, did y'all ever lose faith in

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the system? Did you believe? Did you say to yourself, like,

0:25:57.840 --> 0:25:59.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, I really don't believe that these people are

0:25:59.680 --> 0:26:04.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna do right? But my daughter definitely look at Jenna

0:26:04.280 --> 0:26:08.520
<v Speaker 1>and she like, yes, absolutely lost faith. Uh. First of all,

0:26:08.520 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't a system that we had much faith in

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:14.720
<v Speaker 1>to begin with. As black people, we've seen the system

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:18.639
<v Speaker 1>screw us over a number of times. We've seen this

0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:23.000
<v Speaker 1>system fell us in so many ways. It's it's been unreal.

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:26.720
<v Speaker 1>So to to start with little faith is one thing,

0:26:27.119 --> 0:26:31.360
<v Speaker 1>and then to go through these different levels of things

0:26:31.440 --> 0:26:33.879
<v Speaker 1>and to only lose what you never really had to

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:38.800
<v Speaker 1>begin with, was it's I don't I can't even explain

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>the thing what you go through? You know, Um, I

0:26:45.520 --> 0:26:51.280
<v Speaker 1>literally mentally I thought, I mentally started to lose my mind.

0:26:52.119 --> 0:26:56.919
<v Speaker 1>That I thought that who am I to to go

0:26:57.000 --> 0:26:59.919
<v Speaker 1>up against a system, as you know, to know that

0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:03.480
<v Speaker 1>this system don't care about us no right? And and

0:27:03.560 --> 0:27:06.159
<v Speaker 1>who did I think I was to try and to

0:27:06.280 --> 0:27:09.240
<v Speaker 1>fight that system, to try and and make them know

0:27:09.440 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 1>that they messed with the wrong little black girl that day.

0:27:14.560 --> 0:27:23.240
<v Speaker 1>And so yeah, I know, you know because for me, right,

0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:27.440
<v Speaker 1>being so closely engaged in this case, right, and then

0:27:27.680 --> 0:27:31.720
<v Speaker 1>also being engaged with George Floyd just you know, being

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:35.840
<v Speaker 1>engaged with them. Are Arebrey's mother? Right? And seeing actually

0:27:35.840 --> 0:27:39.119
<v Speaker 1>seeing justice in those cases, right, I know those things

0:27:39.160 --> 0:27:42.080
<v Speaker 1>had to hurt. Like you, you're happy because you had

0:27:42.160 --> 0:27:45.400
<v Speaker 1>grown bonds with these mothers and you're happy for them,

0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:48.120
<v Speaker 1>but at the same time, you're crying to yourself, like

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:51.600
<v Speaker 1>what about my daughter? You know, what about justice for

0:27:51.680 --> 0:27:54.359
<v Speaker 1>my daughter? So I know that must have been something

0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:56.480
<v Speaker 1>for you to go through that, Like this biggest we

0:27:56.840 --> 0:27:59.280
<v Speaker 1>think because it was for me. Every time that I

0:27:59.440 --> 0:28:02.000
<v Speaker 1>cheered and I was happy, I was like, damn. But

0:28:02.119 --> 0:28:07.159
<v Speaker 1>Brihanna like we like and this is historically and I

0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:10.040
<v Speaker 1>believe this is true based on what Being Crump said,

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:12.000
<v Speaker 1>like this is the first time justice for a black

0:28:12.040 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>woman has actually been obtained at this level, you know,

0:28:15.119 --> 0:28:18.840
<v Speaker 1>So this is this hopefully, you know, we'll get everything

0:28:18.840 --> 0:28:22.720
<v Speaker 1>we're supposed to get, you know, the maximum charges, the convictions,

0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:25.160
<v Speaker 1>all the things that we're supposed to get. And it's

0:28:25.200 --> 0:28:28.960
<v Speaker 1>set a presidents like like being Crump said that, and

0:28:29.080 --> 0:28:31.280
<v Speaker 1>it's one of the best things I ever heard of

0:28:31.320 --> 0:28:34.480
<v Speaker 1>him said. You know, he said he wants this country

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 1>to value black lives. He wants to make it unsustainable

0:28:38.680 --> 0:28:41.320
<v Speaker 1>for you to to be able to continue to take

0:28:41.400 --> 0:28:43.720
<v Speaker 1>black life because it's gonna cause you too much and

0:28:43.800 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna lose your life's at the end of it.

0:28:46.080 --> 0:28:47.920
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I know it's a lot. I just

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:52.080
<v Speaker 1>wanted to say, your freedom, your freedom, and well, that's life.

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 1>You ain't you ain't got life, You ain't got no freedom,

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:59.480
<v Speaker 1>You ain't really got no life. Wow. Well, I don't

0:28:59.480 --> 0:29:02.280
<v Speaker 1>know what what would you say if if Lannia, if

0:29:02.360 --> 0:29:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Cameron was sitting here right now, what would you say? Okay,

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:13.920
<v Speaker 1>as the eightieth president of the National Bar Association, where

0:29:14.160 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>black what is it eighty thousand black judges and lawyers

0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:22.920
<v Speaker 1>are members, and you were just installed, which means that

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:27.400
<v Speaker 1>you are at the level right that he's at right

0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:32.000
<v Speaker 1>in terms of your intellect, your ability, and your leader

0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:38.120
<v Speaker 1>him the words out. That's what I'm talking about. He

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 1>can't even he's not even close to the level um

0:29:42.760 --> 0:29:45.360
<v Speaker 1>the the attorneys that I represent. He's not even close

0:29:45.400 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 1>to that level. Uh, and never could be. He can't

0:29:48.640 --> 0:29:51.360
<v Speaker 1>raise the candle to to the attorneys that. You know,

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I've been mentored by that, I learned from that. I uh,

0:29:54.480 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, lead now, but continue to to educate me

0:29:58.040 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 1>as well. He could never because he doesn't understand the

0:30:00.840 --> 0:30:04.240
<v Speaker 1>importance of that. But I'm gonna talk about, you know,

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:06.680
<v Speaker 1>this concept of the justice system and having faith in

0:30:06.720 --> 0:30:08.640
<v Speaker 1>the justice system. And I know we talked about it,

0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:10.480
<v Speaker 1>and I know your listeners get out of us talking

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:13.880
<v Speaker 1>about voting and the importance of voting. I know the

0:30:13.960 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 1>justice system is not perfect, but you all have heard

0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:19.520
<v Speaker 1>me say many a time it's the people behind the

0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:22.600
<v Speaker 1>justice system and why it's so important for us to

0:30:22.720 --> 0:30:25.000
<v Speaker 1>vote and make sure we're putting the right plate people

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:28.120
<v Speaker 1>in the right places so that we have the right prosecutors.

0:30:28.200 --> 0:30:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Camera never should have been the Attorney general or

0:30:30.440 --> 0:30:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Kentucky in the first place. But when you look at

0:30:32.840 --> 0:30:37.000
<v Speaker 1>people like Keith Ellison and Tish James and Kim Fox

0:30:37.280 --> 0:30:40.240
<v Speaker 1>and people who are doing it and doing it right, uh,

0:30:40.320 --> 0:30:43.360
<v Speaker 1>and have no qualms about Georgian officers when they need

0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>to want these elected leaders get help like they come

0:30:47.400 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 1>at them with everything in their in their power. Merlin Moseby.

0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:53.400
<v Speaker 1>We just saw what it was not re elected, UM.

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:55.360
<v Speaker 1>And so they come at them with everything that I

0:30:55.520 --> 0:30:57.760
<v Speaker 1>might to make sure that they don't stay in those places.

0:30:58.080 --> 0:31:00.960
<v Speaker 1>But it's our responsibility to out there and vote and

0:31:00.960 --> 0:31:02.960
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we're putting the right people in the

0:31:03.040 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>right places for those places where the mayors picked the

0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:08.840
<v Speaker 1>police chiefs. Make sure we're voting for those mayors. And

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:13.000
<v Speaker 1>in situations we know we don't always agree with President Baden,

0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:15.920
<v Speaker 1>but if this was that other person's Department of Justice,

0:31:15.960 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 1>we would not be here today. And I don't say

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:21.600
<v Speaker 1>that other person's name, so so no, we don't always

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:23.440
<v Speaker 1>agree with them. And yes, he has a lot of

0:31:23.440 --> 0:31:26.560
<v Speaker 1>work to do, uh as it relates to protecting black

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:31.040
<v Speaker 1>people in public safety and reimagining public safety. But we

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:34.120
<v Speaker 1>are here because he had enough faith and enough sense

0:31:34.560 --> 0:31:39.240
<v Speaker 1>to put Kristin Clark. So so Kristin Clark as the

0:31:39.280 --> 0:31:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Assistant Attorney General for the Division of Civil Rights, and

0:31:42.600 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 1>that's where we're seeing the FEDS go after get involved

0:31:45.840 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>in cases like George Floyd and Matt Aubrey, Brianna Taylor, UM.

0:31:51.040 --> 0:31:53.440
<v Speaker 1>And so we just have to always keep that in mind.

0:31:53.960 --> 0:31:56.600
<v Speaker 1>We can't be once so one dimensional in our voting

0:31:56.640 --> 0:32:00.280
<v Speaker 1>that we lose sight of things like that. And I

0:32:00.320 --> 0:32:02.760
<v Speaker 1>was gonna just wanna say one more one thing. So

0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:06.440
<v Speaker 1>there's a report out and it's it's it resurfaces every

0:32:06.480 --> 0:32:08.800
<v Speaker 1>now and then that talks about the amount of white

0:32:08.840 --> 0:32:13.200
<v Speaker 1>supremacists that are in law enforcement, right, And so we

0:32:13.280 --> 0:32:17.160
<v Speaker 1>have to pray for Kristin Clark because keep in mind,

0:32:17.240 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 1>people need to know the Department of Justice, an Attorney General,

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:25.360
<v Speaker 1>that's law enforcement. These are these are high level officers

0:32:25.400 --> 0:32:28.800
<v Speaker 1>of the law right. So imagine if they are if

0:32:28.800 --> 0:32:33.560
<v Speaker 1>white supremacists are running rampant in police departments locally, they

0:32:33.560 --> 0:32:37.680
<v Speaker 1>are also in the highest office in terms of in Washington,

0:32:37.840 --> 0:32:41.760
<v Speaker 1>d C. And they don't like what happened today, right,

0:32:41.880 --> 0:32:45.080
<v Speaker 1>they don't like what happened today. This is a big case.

0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Rihanna Taylor is probably one of the biggest cases outside

0:32:50.120 --> 0:32:53.080
<v Speaker 1>of George Floyd and and and I and I will say,

0:32:53.360 --> 0:32:56.280
<v Speaker 1>uh and George Floyd's family has sent so many messages

0:32:56.320 --> 0:32:59.280
<v Speaker 1>today where they just crying out, right, because as you said,

0:32:59.320 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 1>we built and we became family out here fighting and

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:08.840
<v Speaker 1>we we had to watch George Floyd be lynched in

0:33:08.920 --> 0:33:12.840
<v Speaker 1>a video in order for him to get justice. There

0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:16.440
<v Speaker 1>was no video for Brianna Taylor. So for this to

0:33:16.600 --> 0:33:20.720
<v Speaker 1>have happened and with no video, this is huge, huge

0:33:20.880 --> 0:33:23.560
<v Speaker 1>for our movement because they it is. It is at

0:33:23.560 --> 0:33:26.960
<v Speaker 1>the point where it's become a fetish watching black people

0:33:27.040 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 1>be murdered for people to say, Okay, well maybe they

0:33:30.720 --> 0:33:34.200
<v Speaker 1>deserve justice. I don't know. If you asked me the question,

0:33:34.200 --> 0:33:36.360
<v Speaker 1>did I believe that it would ever happen, I don't know.

0:33:36.560 --> 0:33:38.760
<v Speaker 1>I can't say that I did. I just can't say

0:33:38.800 --> 0:33:43.320
<v Speaker 1>that I did, because the things that the pieces needed

0:33:43.600 --> 0:33:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Amad are prey. There was a video finally that came

0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:50.720
<v Speaker 1>out that showed these guys what did they do? They

0:33:50.800 --> 0:33:53.760
<v Speaker 1>tracked him and they murdered him. They shot him. We

0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:56.480
<v Speaker 1>had to watch that in order for him to get justice.

0:33:56.760 --> 0:34:01.200
<v Speaker 1>For Brianna to be a black woman, because we know

0:34:01.440 --> 0:34:05.720
<v Speaker 1>the system gives two ships less about black women, to

0:34:05.840 --> 0:34:09.320
<v Speaker 1>be a black woman, for Kenny to have fired a shot,

0:34:09.440 --> 0:34:12.200
<v Speaker 1>they wanted to lean on that as much as they

0:34:12.200 --> 0:34:17.319
<v Speaker 1>could and to hear Merrick Garland say today that this

0:34:17.480 --> 0:34:23.359
<v Speaker 1>was a lawful gun owner, so he had every right

0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:27.040
<v Speaker 1>to shoot that shot. And we should talk about Kenny

0:34:27.080 --> 0:34:29.600
<v Speaker 1>and what he might be you know, experience. And I

0:34:29.640 --> 0:34:32.520
<v Speaker 1>know you talked to Kenny today. How was he feeling?

0:34:32.560 --> 0:34:36.719
<v Speaker 1>What did he say to me? Girl? Uh? He was overwhelmed,

0:34:36.840 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 1>he was he was full of emotion. He was you know,

0:34:41.040 --> 0:34:44.960
<v Speaker 1>happy and sad. You know it's sad again to say

0:34:45.400 --> 0:34:49.640
<v Speaker 1>like he almost lost his life over this. And you

0:34:49.680 --> 0:34:54.880
<v Speaker 1>know that Hankinson was charged. In Hankinson's indictment, it included

0:34:55.000 --> 0:34:58.719
<v Speaker 1>visitors to Brianna's home, So that is Kenny. It's it

0:34:58.880 --> 0:35:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Brianna and her visitors, which is Kenny Walker because I

0:35:02.560 --> 0:35:04.600
<v Speaker 1>was the only person that in her home that night.

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:11.080
<v Speaker 1>So Kenny is also getting some symbols of justice today. Absolutely,

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:14.759
<v Speaker 1>you know what I wanted you to. I want you

0:35:14.800 --> 0:35:18.840
<v Speaker 1>to talk about. They say there's a someone has already pleaded.

0:35:19.680 --> 0:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, that's important. That's important because he was

0:35:22.960 --> 0:35:25.319
<v Speaker 1>always just charged. Don't say that. But it's a lot

0:35:25.400 --> 0:35:30.200
<v Speaker 1>different when somebody has already pleaded and admitted to what happened.

0:35:30.239 --> 0:35:37.760
<v Speaker 1>What is that about? Yeah? So, so, um, Detective Kelly

0:35:37.800 --> 0:35:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Gootlet she was, Um it's a junior members, detective. Don't

0:35:44.520 --> 0:35:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and don't quote me on that. I'm pretty sure she

0:35:46.640 --> 0:35:50.040
<v Speaker 1>was detective, but the detective because that unit was everyone

0:35:50.120 --> 0:35:52.960
<v Speaker 1>was detective, but she was like a junior member of

0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:56.839
<v Speaker 1>the team. So James and Sergeant Meni were Meni were

0:35:56.880 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 1>definitely her superiors, UM and her And so when they

0:36:01.080 --> 0:36:04.400
<v Speaker 1>said information, it was about as an information because they

0:36:04.400 --> 0:36:06.759
<v Speaker 1>didn't need to indict her because she had already entered

0:36:06.760 --> 0:36:10.520
<v Speaker 1>her her guilty plea prior to uh so, they didn't

0:36:10.520 --> 0:36:12.280
<v Speaker 1>need to present it to her to a grand jury

0:36:12.280 --> 0:36:16.920
<v Speaker 1>because she played guilty to conspiracy and in that she

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:23.600
<v Speaker 1>she she gave information involving knowing that when they submitted

0:36:23.719 --> 0:36:26.520
<v Speaker 1>the search warrants to the judge to be signed that

0:36:26.600 --> 0:36:30.759
<v Speaker 1>it was feeling that that Brianna's was not true, that

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:35.920
<v Speaker 1>it was old information, and that they um basically fabricated information.

0:36:36.400 --> 0:36:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Uh so to get her UM to get that warrant

0:36:40.120 --> 0:36:42.040
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that a judge was signed up warrant.

0:36:42.760 --> 0:36:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Then she talked about once it became public that they

0:36:46.719 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>lied on the warrant, meaning that the postal inspector came

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:52.480
<v Speaker 1>and said, that's not true. I never said that Marcus

0:36:52.480 --> 0:36:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Glover was receiving packages. There. They met in somebody's garage

0:36:57.640 --> 0:37:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and began to plot and plan, so so Joshua Jaans,

0:37:00.960 --> 0:37:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Sergeant Meany and good Lit. They were meeting to figure

0:37:06.080 --> 0:37:07.799
<v Speaker 1>out how are we going to cover this up? And

0:37:07.840 --> 0:37:10.920
<v Speaker 1>remember they came out with that however long police report

0:37:11.400 --> 0:37:14.719
<v Speaker 1>acting like they had seen you know, Brianna here and

0:37:14.920 --> 0:37:18.920
<v Speaker 1>there and just really trying to push information out. So

0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:24.000
<v Speaker 1>they intentionally withheld and fabricating information on the search warrant.

0:37:24.040 --> 0:37:26.480
<v Speaker 1>But then they also when they were caught, trying to

0:37:26.920 --> 0:37:28.480
<v Speaker 1>cover it up and figure out how they were going

0:37:28.480 --> 0:37:31.520
<v Speaker 1>to cover it up. And and so she she's she

0:37:31.680 --> 0:37:35.600
<v Speaker 1>was cooperating and that's why she was So she played

0:37:36.280 --> 0:37:39.920
<v Speaker 1>it's good. It's good a lot because that's been one

0:37:39.920 --> 0:37:42.759
<v Speaker 1>of the main things people like, oh charges, And I'm like,

0:37:42.800 --> 0:37:45.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot different when you already have somebody blowing

0:37:45.840 --> 0:37:49.400
<v Speaker 1>the whistle. Somebody's admitting that they would mean they knew

0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that they colluded and they were in, you know, in

0:37:54.400 --> 0:37:57.040
<v Speaker 1>they would do it. They was involved, say, I mean

0:37:57.400 --> 0:38:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and to a certain extent, you know, they're gonna have

0:38:01.000 --> 0:38:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that she's protected too. When we talk

0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:05.839
<v Speaker 1>about Christen Clark or this or that, like, we gotta

0:38:05.840 --> 0:38:07.680
<v Speaker 1>make sure that she's protected because we're gonna need her

0:38:07.719 --> 0:38:11.080
<v Speaker 1>for that trail in the long run, right, um, And

0:38:11.200 --> 0:38:15.560
<v Speaker 1>so she broke up. She knew that they were on

0:38:15.600 --> 0:38:18.560
<v Speaker 1>her ass to see. That's the other thing, because we

0:38:18.640 --> 0:38:22.799
<v Speaker 1>can't be giving these people brownies for first of all,

0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:25.799
<v Speaker 1>doing what's right and waiting two years to do what

0:38:25.920 --> 0:38:28.080
<v Speaker 1>was right, because she should have told the truth from

0:38:28.080 --> 0:38:32.399
<v Speaker 1>the beginning. But regardless, she did it today. But that's

0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:36.280
<v Speaker 1>because she knew that they knew. We they she knew

0:38:36.520 --> 0:38:39.200
<v Speaker 1>that the Feds knew, because we already understand that when

0:38:39.239 --> 0:38:42.640
<v Speaker 1>the Feds come, they generally know what they're talking about,

0:38:42.680 --> 0:38:45.200
<v Speaker 1>and they have all of the facts or much of

0:38:45.239 --> 0:38:48.840
<v Speaker 1>it in front of them. And so she basically saved herself.

0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:51.399
<v Speaker 1>So that's people just need to be clear about that.

0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's not go start praising this lady like you know,

0:38:54.719 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 1>she's some some hero. No, she was saying herself by

0:38:59.200 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 1>throwing the rest to them under the bus. And you know,

0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 1>if we had more officers who before it even gets

0:39:05.160 --> 0:39:07.400
<v Speaker 1>to this point, would come forward because guess what, there

0:39:07.440 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 1>are other people who may not have even been involved,

0:39:10.200 --> 0:39:12.200
<v Speaker 1>but they knew there was lies. They knew there was

0:39:12.239 --> 0:39:14.959
<v Speaker 1>a cover up. And we need law enforcement, the good

0:39:15.040 --> 0:39:17.759
<v Speaker 1>cops that we hear about all the time to do

0:39:17.840 --> 0:39:20.440
<v Speaker 1>the right thing and come forward because that that meeting

0:39:20.440 --> 0:39:23.520
<v Speaker 1>in the garage. Those garages are all over the nation.

0:39:24.239 --> 0:39:27.799
<v Speaker 1>People are cops are meeting all over the country off

0:39:28.000 --> 0:39:30.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, somewhere where they think nobody can hear and see,

0:39:31.360 --> 0:39:35.600
<v Speaker 1>making up stories to to to to explain away the

0:39:35.760 --> 0:39:37.960
<v Speaker 1>murder of black people. And I know y'all are t

0:39:39.640 --> 0:39:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Thank y'all so much, but coming on safe. We love

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:46.919
<v Speaker 1>you all, man, and it's no more. It ain't gonna

0:39:46.960 --> 0:39:50.880
<v Speaker 1>be eight hundred seventy five. You know, today is a

0:39:50.920 --> 0:39:55.000
<v Speaker 1>whole new day they want again. We'll get a different

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:57.880
<v Speaker 1>type of sleep tonight. You know, when you talk to

0:39:57.960 --> 0:40:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Brianna a nighttime tonight, you're gonna say, we fought for you, baby,

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:05.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, and it's gonna be. We ain't all the

0:40:05.040 --> 0:40:08.279
<v Speaker 1>way there, but it's definitely feel a lot closer than

0:40:08.360 --> 0:40:12.320
<v Speaker 1>we were on the other side. That's a different feeling.

0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Took us to. She took us somewhere we've never been

0:40:16.680 --> 0:40:20.800
<v Speaker 1>even imagine even imagine a man, thank you, thank you,

0:40:24.440 --> 0:40:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah all right, thanks, yeah right, that's how we are

0:40:33.040 --> 0:40:37.560
<v Speaker 1>once again. Shout out to Kristen Clark. Yeah, I got

0:40:37.560 --> 0:40:40.520
<v Speaker 1>to give our sister that's my sister. Listen, shout out

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:43.600
<v Speaker 1>to her. Shut up to everybody who did the right thing.

0:40:43.719 --> 0:40:46.279
<v Speaker 1>You know. We went to the d o J a

0:40:46.320 --> 0:40:53.279
<v Speaker 1>few months back, you know, and we presented four of petitions,

0:40:53.400 --> 0:40:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, and we said we need y'all to open

0:40:57.160 --> 0:40:59.279
<v Speaker 1>up investigation. We need you all to do the right thing,

0:40:59.440 --> 0:41:03.279
<v Speaker 1>and you know, and she says she was working. She said, look,

0:41:03.640 --> 0:41:06.120
<v Speaker 1>we're doing all. We're gonna we're going to look at

0:41:06.120 --> 0:41:08.840
<v Speaker 1>this case and it's not going to just go unseen.

0:41:08.960 --> 0:41:12.839
<v Speaker 1>Please believe that in today. But you know, she could

0:41:12.960 --> 0:41:18.520
<v Speaker 1>not say that there would be charges brought because she

0:41:19.000 --> 0:41:22.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't know that. She said they would do that diligence,

0:41:22.880 --> 0:41:25.200
<v Speaker 1>but she could not say the charges would be brought

0:41:25.239 --> 0:41:28.840
<v Speaker 1>because she didn't know that. It took the local FBI

0:41:29.640 --> 0:41:33.000
<v Speaker 1>to after, you know, after they investigated, to go to

0:41:33.080 --> 0:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>her and say, okay, we found things here, because otherwise

0:41:36.920 --> 0:41:39.000
<v Speaker 1>we would not be seeing this. I mean, you just

0:41:39.080 --> 0:41:42.239
<v Speaker 1>have to be straight up about what has happened, because

0:41:42.239 --> 0:41:43.840
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna be some people are gonna try to make

0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:46.960
<v Speaker 1>it seem like because Kristen Clark is a black woman

0:41:47.000 --> 0:41:51.120
<v Speaker 1>who came out of our movement, that she's just going

0:41:51.160 --> 0:41:56.880
<v Speaker 1>around were charging the woman. When somebody goes in as

0:41:56.960 --> 0:41:59.920
<v Speaker 1>that we did this wrong, and and we sat afterwards,

0:42:00.040 --> 0:42:02.360
<v Speaker 1>we colluded and said, how are we gonna cover this

0:42:02.480 --> 0:42:04.319
<v Speaker 1>up like that? Ain't gonna do it, Chris. It's just

0:42:04.360 --> 0:42:07.520
<v Speaker 1>the fact that Daniel Cameron didn't go find that lady

0:42:07.800 --> 0:42:09.839
<v Speaker 1>who did this? Right? She didn't did she didn't look

0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:13.160
<v Speaker 1>for that. He didn't look for that information anything exactly.

0:42:13.160 --> 0:42:15.759
<v Speaker 1>And it was there. That information was there because we

0:42:15.880 --> 0:42:19.160
<v Speaker 1>kept saying, how do you get a search for for

0:42:19.239 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 1>somebody who has nothing to do with this situation? When

0:42:23.080 --> 0:42:26.200
<v Speaker 1>when people kept saying that the postmaster said that he

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:29.600
<v Speaker 1>never said that there was packages being said there. Right,

0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:32.279
<v Speaker 1>So all of those things we knew that somebody had

0:42:32.280 --> 0:42:34.680
<v Speaker 1>covered up. And if Dan you Cameron had did a

0:42:34.719 --> 0:42:37.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit of his job, we wouldn't have to have

0:42:37.120 --> 0:42:39.880
<v Speaker 1>the Feds get involved, you know. So that means the

0:42:39.920 --> 0:42:43.400
<v Speaker 1>fens actually did their job. They did and that's and listen,

0:42:43.520 --> 0:42:45.920
<v Speaker 1>she said, the only thing I can promise is that

0:42:46.239 --> 0:42:49.240
<v Speaker 1>we're going to be fair and just and we're gonna

0:42:49.280 --> 0:42:52.120
<v Speaker 1>do our jobs. And that's all we want because we

0:42:52.160 --> 0:42:55.879
<v Speaker 1>don't want your treatment, we don't want favors, we don't

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:59.680
<v Speaker 1>want any of that. We just want and justice department,

0:43:00.080 --> 0:43:03.319
<v Speaker 1>a justice department that at least will look at these

0:43:03.360 --> 0:43:07.680
<v Speaker 1>cases and we'll ask the right questions to get the

0:43:07.760 --> 0:43:11.640
<v Speaker 1>answers that they need so that they can determine if

0:43:11.880 --> 0:43:15.279
<v Speaker 1>someone's life was taken unjustice. That's what we want. We want,

0:43:15.360 --> 0:43:18.440
<v Speaker 1>and that's what happened here to say to everybody, because

0:43:18.480 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 1>this was all of us. This was a collective effort.

0:43:21.200 --> 0:43:27.080
<v Speaker 1>It was athletes, it was entertainers, it was rappers and musicians,

0:43:27.200 --> 0:43:31.080
<v Speaker 1>it was time, it was grassroots organizations, it was regular

0:43:31.160 --> 0:43:38.160
<v Speaker 1>individuals Louisville, the whole rereeway, everybody who said Brianna Taylor's name,

0:43:38.239 --> 0:43:41.720
<v Speaker 1>who would not allow the world to just forget about

0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:44.359
<v Speaker 1>a young black woman who died in her home. You know,

0:43:44.480 --> 0:43:46.719
<v Speaker 1>this is this is what it looks like when you

0:43:46.800 --> 0:43:49.680
<v Speaker 1>don't allow somebody to stop you from fighting, when you believe,

0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:52.920
<v Speaker 1>when you constantly stand up. You know, a lot of us,

0:43:53.360 --> 0:43:56.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, until freedom, we moved back. We moved here

0:43:57.120 --> 0:43:59.800
<v Speaker 1>to Louisville, you know, and we and we said to ourselves,

0:43:59.800 --> 0:44:02.600
<v Speaker 1>we wasn't going home until they were justice for Brianna Taylor.

0:44:02.600 --> 0:44:05.800
<v Speaker 1>And we've been here and back and forth ever since.

0:44:06.280 --> 0:44:11.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, so there's a level of just level we

0:44:11.880 --> 0:44:17.080
<v Speaker 1>can exhale somebody because there's trials and guess what these

0:44:17.120 --> 0:44:21.480
<v Speaker 1>people are not gonna take and laying down the lawyers

0:44:21.880 --> 0:44:24.839
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna try to fight. Yeah. But for me,

0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:28.520
<v Speaker 1>it was just that nobody would even acknowledge that they

0:44:28.520 --> 0:44:31.080
<v Speaker 1>took this woman's life. There was there was nothing of

0:44:31.160 --> 0:44:34.560
<v Speaker 1>It was just us just saying, Yo, they killed this woman.

0:44:34.640 --> 0:44:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Somebody killed that, somebody is responsible for her death, her

0:44:38.239 --> 0:44:41.480
<v Speaker 1>wrongful death. And you're telling us that the wolves are

0:44:41.560 --> 0:44:45.160
<v Speaker 1>more important than Brianna Taylor, and you know, and today

0:44:45.400 --> 0:44:48.960
<v Speaker 1>somebody said no, that she should still be alive, that

0:44:49.239 --> 0:44:51.560
<v Speaker 1>what they did was wrong and it caused her death

0:44:51.719 --> 0:44:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and she was The crazy part about it is that

0:44:55.880 --> 0:44:59.600
<v Speaker 1>listening because we knew this already, but listening to Marrick

0:44:59.640 --> 0:45:03.160
<v Speaker 1>gard and today they were not even supposed to be

0:45:03.400 --> 0:45:06.760
<v Speaker 1>at her house at all. They were not even supposed

0:45:06.800 --> 0:45:11.759
<v Speaker 1>to be And so these faulty warrants, lies on the warrants,

0:45:12.440 --> 0:45:14.960
<v Speaker 1>no knock warrants and all of this with it with

0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:19.160
<v Speaker 1>these officers. Did they put this woman's life in danger

0:45:19.320 --> 0:45:21.759
<v Speaker 1>before they even got to her house because they lied

0:45:21.800 --> 0:45:24.960
<v Speaker 1>on a warrant knowing that it would bring armed officers

0:45:25.040 --> 0:45:31.080
<v Speaker 1>to her house and therefore anything can happen. And look

0:45:31.120 --> 0:45:36.279
<v Speaker 1>at what mess occurred that night. It's just so much.

0:45:39.600 --> 0:45:44.239
<v Speaker 1>It's scary though, because it feels like, imagine this, it's

0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:47.320
<v Speaker 1>going on all over the country and they are lying,

0:45:48.000 --> 0:45:51.719
<v Speaker 1>and the President of the United States, who has a

0:45:51.880 --> 0:45:55.400
<v Speaker 1>Justice Department that's trying to do one job of making

0:45:55.480 --> 0:46:01.000
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement accountable, he's over here. It's tone death. It's

0:46:01.120 --> 0:46:05.280
<v Speaker 1>tone death for President Biden to be talking about adding

0:46:05.320 --> 0:46:10.440
<v Speaker 1>a hundred thousand cops into a system that is criminal

0:46:11.200 --> 0:46:14.120
<v Speaker 1>in the way in which it approaches public safety for

0:46:14.239 --> 0:46:17.160
<v Speaker 1>black people. And you're gonna put a hundred thousand more

0:46:17.200 --> 0:46:20.360
<v Speaker 1>cops on the street because your position is, well, there's

0:46:20.400 --> 0:46:23.040
<v Speaker 1>crime is violent, So what we're gonna what we're gonna

0:46:23.080 --> 0:46:27.919
<v Speaker 1>do is there's the violent poky and we're gonna put

0:46:28.200 --> 0:46:33.240
<v Speaker 1>violent officers Robb on top of them. It doesn't make sense.

0:46:34.239 --> 0:46:37.719
<v Speaker 1>We need a hundred thousand peace keys. We need a

0:46:37.840 --> 0:46:43.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred We need thirteen billion dollar investment in jobs, food safety.

0:46:44.000 --> 0:46:47.480
<v Speaker 1>That's what we need. Because we know the numbers show

0:46:48.120 --> 0:46:55.160
<v Speaker 1>that communities who have resources, you know, you know, so

0:46:56.160 --> 0:46:59.360
<v Speaker 1>you really, I mean, they have they have very little crimes.

0:46:59.800 --> 0:47:04.600
<v Speaker 1>The poorest communities are the highest crime communities, and we

0:47:04.680 --> 0:47:07.320
<v Speaker 1>know that. So if you invest in the community, invest

0:47:07.360 --> 0:47:10.879
<v Speaker 1>in education, you invest in resources, You're invest in after

0:47:10.920 --> 0:47:14.120
<v Speaker 1>school programs, You're invest in you know, the food, so

0:47:14.320 --> 0:47:17.440
<v Speaker 1>kids have good food, mental health, and be invested in

0:47:17.719 --> 0:47:22.400
<v Speaker 1>the community, that the individuals who actually can intervene and

0:47:22.520 --> 0:47:25.439
<v Speaker 1>stop the violence in the communities. We know that that

0:47:25.560 --> 0:47:30.360
<v Speaker 1>is a a way better approach approach to public. So

0:47:32.239 --> 0:47:36.120
<v Speaker 1>once again, man shout out to everybody who fall for

0:47:36.160 --> 0:47:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Brianna Taylor. If you said her name, if you watched,

0:47:39.200 --> 0:47:41.840
<v Speaker 1>if you tweet it, if you did anything, this is

0:47:41.880 --> 0:47:47.160
<v Speaker 1>a victory for you. And so yeah, got you. I'm

0:47:47.160 --> 0:47:50.120
<v Speaker 1>not gonna always be right to me. It's not gonna

0:47:50.160 --> 0:47:57.520
<v Speaker 1>always be wrong. We'll both fight until free peace peace.
