    The state of emergency announcement tends to say they're not planning to prosecute the involved officers, though I haven't seen whether the formal announcement has already been made.

    As @feld hinted, having a pre-announcement announcement that an announcement is coming is usually a bad sign.

      No charges against the officers for breaking into her apartment and precipitating a shootout which took Breonna Taylor's life. One officer indicted for endangering neighbors with a shot that went into the neighboring apartment.

      "More than six months after emergency medical worker Breonna Taylor was shot dead by police in her Louisville home, a grand jury has indicted one officer in relation to shooting into her neighbor's apartment — but no officers were charged for their role in Taylor's death. Former officer Brett Hankison was indicted on three counts of wanton endangerment and two other officers who opened fire were not indicted."

      It seems like Louisville, #KY, WANTS their city burned down.

      Usually, you go to court to determine if a witness is reliable, so this is kinda yikes:

      'Cameron said evidence shows the "officers both knocked and announced their presence. It was also corroborated by a witness in an apartment near Taylor's." Therefore, Cameron said, the warrant was not served as a "no-knock" warrant.'
