"It will always be us against them, (and) we are never safe when it comes to them, " she said. "The officer (that) lied to obtain the search warrant failed her. The judge who signed the search warrant failed her. The terrorists who broke down her door failed her. The system as a whole has failed her. " The entire grand jury process was a "sham proceeding that did nothing to give Breonna Taylor a voice, " added their attorney Ben Crump. "Nothing seems to say Breonna mattered. " Cameron continues to defend his treatment of the case; he argues that while the community might find the grand jury findings "uncomfortable, " "Truth has to mean something in our society. " Ironically, his declaration echoes that of the lone, honorable, anonymous juror who felt compelled to step forward "so that the truth may prevail. " He or she, in turn, brings to mind Henry Fonda's lonely dissenting juror in Sidney Lumet's great 1957 film, "12 Angry Men, " a radical courtroom drama, morality play and condemnation of the U. S. jury system as 11 of 12 white men rush to pass judgment on a poor teenager of color.
Reginald Rose's script is flipped - one among many is pondering possible innocence, not guilt - but it still argues for looking beyond our biases within a flawed system and science. Rose describes a quiet, thoughtful man "who sees all sides of every question and constantly seeks the all, he is a man who wants justice to be done, and will fight to see that it is. " Breonna Taylor still hasn't gotten justice. Amidst dark days, notes an admirer of the lone juror on Twitter, "Time for good people to cause good trouble. " Cops charging into Taylor's apartment.
"My client is 'aggrieved, ' to use that term, that what was presented is not being publicly disclosed, " Glogower said at a press conference just 18 hours after the juror filed a motion in Jefferson County Circuit Court requesting the release of the proceeding's transcripts and recordings, as well as permission to speak about the Taylor case in public. The juror, he says, "is not seeking any fame, any acclaim, any money" but just "wants to make sure the truth gets out. " In response to the motion, a judge ordered recordings of the two and half day presentation to the jury be filed with the court by noon Wednesday; Cameron sought a one-week delay, arguing it was necessary to "redact personal identifiers of any named person" in the proceedings, but the judge only granted an extension until noon on Friday. In a separate motion, a "John Doe 1 through John Doe 13" have requested no identifying material be made public; they're apparently police in the @LMPD 's Public Integrity Unit who feel threatened by the community's outrage about the case.
MACON, GA – During an appearance in Macon, Georgia on October 16 th, President Trump was greeted with an enthusiastic crowd as always. While making this stop on Georgia, President Trump made mention of his political opponent (and his opponent's family) as being "corrupt": "That Biden family and others, but that Biden family is corrupt, a corrupt family. " This predictably garnered a response from the passionate crowd, delivering a chant quite reminiscent to the ones heard during the 2016 election cycle. From the crowd, a chant began to eliminate that clamored: "Lock him up! " Whether you love President Trump or you hate him, one cannot deny that the man knows how to read the proverbial room. President Trump played off of the crowd's energy, responding to the spurred chants with: "We should lock him up. Lock up the Bidens. Lock up Hillary. " Crowd at Trump Rally in Macon, GA break out into "Lock Him Up! " chants regarding @JoeBiden corruption revealed in the Hunter Biden hard drive reporting by the @nypost — Destroyer of Worlds Vish the Producer (@VishBurra) October 16, 2020 This response of course further provoked more energy from the crowd and increased chants.
