BREAKING: No Murder Charges Filed in Execution of Breonna Taylor

Breonna didn’t shoot the intruder. Explain how she got shot 8 times?
But it’s not that simple, partly because of a tangled legal doctrine that applies to Kentucky and 28 other states. There is no specific law in these jurisdictions addressing police shooting in self-defense, which means officers have the same rights and obligations as any resident. Yet police have the unique power to initiate violence–like knocking down the door of a private home in the middle of the night–that other people don’t.
Most states don’t allow someone to claim self-defense when they are an aggressor,” he said. “But most states also say that when police are acting in their official capacity they can’t be aggressors for purposes of self-defense law.”
The Taylor case is complicated by the so-called “castle doctrine”, which traces to 17th century English common law. It gives people in every state, except Vermont and Washington DC, the right to use deadly force against an intruder in their home, with no duty to retreat. In Kentucky law, those protections do not allow someone to harm police officers who enter their home, as long as the officers announce themselves or the homeowner reasonably should have known they were police. This is how Walker was initially arrested and charged with attempted murder of a police officer for opening fire first. Those charges were dropped in May.
The officers, in turn, took gunfire in a place their search warrant gave them legal permission to enter. That would seemingly provide them a self-defense justification for shooting back inside Taylor’s home. Thanks to US supreme court rulings, officers can invoke self-defense even if their behavior was objectively unsafe or likely to provoke a violent response.
