| 0:00.0 | Good evening. We are seeing calls for justice and relatively peaceful demonstrations at this |
| 0:05.6 | moment in Louisville where a curfew goes into effect about one hour from now as a |
| 0:09.9 | sort of authorities there and elsewhere across the country prepare for the possibility |
| 0:13.3 | of fallout after Grand Jury's decision today to charge no one directly for the death of |
| 0:17.8 | Brianna Taylor, a 26 year old EMT killed by police in March. The one officer who was |
| 0:23.3 | charged for wanton endangerment has already posted bond and been released from jail. As |

| 1:24.3 | Miles Cosgrove were investigated but do not face any criminal charges. According to Kentucky |
| 1:30.2 | law the use of force by Mattingley and Cosgrove was justified to protect themselves. The charges |

| 1:43.0 | Based on the evidence there is nothing conclusive to say that Detective Hankinsons any of his bullets |
| 1:51.8 | hit Miss Taylor. In the months following Taylor's death there has been much speculation surrounding |
