TIL that a year after an officer pleaded guilty to lying to a judge to get the warrant to search Breonna Taylor's apartment, no one involved has served a day of jail time (en.wikipedia.org)

Kelly Goodlett admitted that police did not have the evidence that they presented to a judge in order to get the warrant, including fabricating testimony from the postal inspector that a known drug dealer was sending packages to that house. Goodlett has been convicted and is free while awaiting sentencing. Joshua Jayne, Kyle Meany and Brett Hankison are charged with various crimes surrounding the false testimony and are awaiting trial. They have had their trials pushed back multiple times each. It has been over three years since Breonna Taylor was murdered by police and even those who admitted to crimes are still free.

Sometimes you get tried, sentenced and executed right there in your fucking living room in under a minute by someone who knows the evidence against you is fake.
