Following a grand juror complaint about his handling of the Breonna Taylor case, Kentuck AG Daniel Cameron was forced to release highly redacted tape and transcript of grand jury testimony, has now moved to silence those grand jurors to prevent any further embarrassment to him.
He knows that further grand juror revelations will show that he deliberately the case before the grand jury, and refused to inform the jury of its rights to information.
I don’t know if this is illegal, but it’s certainly sketchy legal ethics, and it’s political poison, so now he is covering it up.
This is not a surprise. After all this is a man who has about as much experience as a real lawyer as Raymond Burr, and his qualification for office is that he is a protege of Mitch McConnell:
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron claimed weeks ago, when announcing the grand jury’s decision in Breonna Taylor’s shooting death, that justice only answered “to the facts and to the law.” Cameron’s recent motion to keep jurors who ruled on the case from speaking publicly about the proceedings, however, has many wondering whether the “facts” he presented had the intention of seeking justice for Taylor or instead pre-determined innocence for the officers involved.
On Oct. 2, Cameron’s office released 15 hours of audio from the grand jury proceedings on Taylor’s death. Since then, Taylor’s family has called on Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear to appoint a new special prosecutor to reopen the case. The family claims that the recent recordings show that Cameron “did not serve as an unbiased prosecutor” and “intentionally did not present charges to the grand jury that would have pursued justice for Ms. Taylor.”

The filing went on to accuse Cameron of using jurors “as a shield to deflect accountability and responsibility for those decisions.”

Cameron wants the judge to dismiss the grand juror’s request. He claimed in a statement that the proceedings are kept confidential to protect the safety of all involved. Taylor’s family believes that the A.G. is continuing to stand in the way of justice.
This rat-f%$# is every bit as corrupt as his former boss, and I hope that this ends his career.
