According to the Kentucky AG, the police did knock and identify themselves, confirmed by a civilian witness, and so everything after that, but for the reckless random shooting by the now fired deputy was not the fault of the police.
If you knock and announce yourself and then have the right by law to break down the door and someone inside the apartment starts shooting at you, you must return fire.
Ms. Taylor died because her then boyfriend opened fire on police, not because the police were wrong.
The AG made the right decision and his decision should be respected but rioters want to loot and burn at the drop of a hat. Disgusting.
