Kentucky Judge Rules Grand Juror Can Speak Publicly About Breonna Taylor Case – By Reuters (IJ Review) / Oct 20 2020

A Kentucky judge ruled on Tuesday that an anonymous grand juror may speak publicly about the evidence that the state attorney general presented in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor by police officers.

The proceedings that ended with the jury recommending no homicide charges against the three white officers in the case, an outcome that stoked days of protests over the use of excessive force by police against blacks and minorities.
