How sway? The Louisville, KY police officer who killed Breonna Taylor wants his job back.
Myles Colgrove was fired from the LMPD in January for his involvement in the shooting. He will present his case to the Louisville Metro Police Merit Board in December.
This year, Cosgrove was fired for failing to “properly identify a target” after firing 16 rounds into Taylor’s apartment during a botched raid. He’s accused of shooting the shit that killed Taylor.
He also failed to turn on his body camera.
After being fired, Cosgrove slammed the police department, saying that they gave in to “political pressures.”
“Think about that the next time you put on the uniform and badge,” he said. “For those of you still doing real police work, it’s just a matter of time till you (too) will be a sacrificial lamb. I plead with you, do nothing.”
So far, no officer has faced criminal charges for Taylor’s death. Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron previously said that the officers were “justified” in the shooting because Kenneth Walker, Taylor’s boyfriend, fired his weapon first.
