Breonna Taylor’s mother files internal affairs complaints against six Louisville Metro police officers

CNN  

CNN — Breonna Taylor’s mother, Tamika Palmer,has filed internal affairs complaints against six officers with the Professional Standards Unit of the Louisville Metro Police Department this week, according to the complaints provided to CNN by Palmer’s attorney Sam Aguiar. Palmer alleges the behavior of four officers was “unacceptable, intolerable and contributing factors to Breonna’s death and the deficient investigation thereafter,” according to the complaints. Aguiar told CNN in a statement, “These internal affairs complaints were filed to get answers, explanations and accountability.” “We believe a thorough investigation of these allegations will expose the rotten underbelly of a rogue police division and the lengths that investigators went to protect the officers,” Aguiar said. These officers can’t be allowed to lie and say it’s alright because they’re police.” He added: “They can’t be allowed to cover up their actions and not explain it, just because they’re police.” The LMPD released a statement saying, “The department places the highest priority on conducting thorough and impartial investigations, and the complaints received from Ms. Palmer’s attorney are no exception.
