QCP: Community News - Breonna Taylor’s Justice - State & Local cover up - Feds “investigation”

QCP: Community News - Breonna Taylor’s Justice - State &  Local cover up - Feds “investigation”

By Candace L. Smith




I ran across the news report that gave an update on the Feds investigation into her suspicious death. The state and local governments displayed ignorance in understanding how she was suspiciously shot dead by police acting on a warrant. When the news first dropped it was during the height of George Floyd’s death and there was a lot of outrage over another black body dying by the hands of white PD officers.

Taylor’s case got a lot of attention as it should have and many people questioned the validity of the warrant bc people were able to see Taylor’s life documented through social media and verified by her family that she was a law abiding citizen. There was no reason for her to be involved in a warrant. When it resulted in her death people never forgot. Especially her mother and close family. They continued to advocate for justice for her life. Eventually a federal investigation was opened up and after months there’s an update which resulted in four of the officers involved being charged. What I want to discuss in this video is the importance of advocating for the people in your family and community. If Breonna Taylor’s mother would have accepted the state and local assessment there would be no justice but she continued to rally for her daughter even though there was not a lot of continued public support.


QCP: Community News (Video)
Check out this video discussing the son that turned his father into the Feds for participating in the January 6th Capitol riots. There's a newsclip included of the sisters and mother's response.

People were no longer saying her name and I rarely see her picture come across my social media even though there was months of her smiling pictures throughout my news feeds on several social media platforms. But because of the persistence of her mother and lawyer and other advocating with her the feds got involved and a proper investigation took place. Another thing I discuss in this video is the relationships between the state local and federal governments. I talk about why the police was able to falsify information for a warrant and almost get away with it up to state level. The relationship that the state and local government agencies have to keep with each other for federal monies and positions put them into positions where they will cover up certain poor behavior by their fellow officers and the people that work internally within these systems. When the federal government gets involved the relationship changes because they are not as connected to state and local agencies. The length of time of this investigation was not to uncover the truth. They knew the truth very early on.

QCP: Church News: The Bishop, The Blogger & The Community


The time of the investigation was spent figuring out how to communicate to the community how people sworn to serve and protect the community used their positions of power to lie and it resulted in an innocent woman’s death. They have to prepare for the community’s response and they wanted to wait for the outrage to slow down. I’m glad that her mother never slowed down and she was determined to get her daughter justice. It’s going to be interesting to see what sentence they will receive for these crimes. What do you think about the federal investigation results? How much time do you think the officers should receive? Who else should be held accountable? The D.A? Who signed off on the warrants? Should they be held accountable as well? Leave a comment and let me know what you think. Please like and subscribe so that you’ll be notified when I post a new video.

If You Asked Me To

You ever heard a song and it fit your current relationship story perfectly?  That's how it was when I rediscovered Patti LaBelle's, "If You Asked Me To."   LaBelle, released this song in 1989 from her album, Be Yourself . I remember hearing the Celine Dion version as well and falling in love with the song all over again.  Celine Dion is another artist who has hits! I love the way she covers Jennifer Rush's, " The Power of Love. " It wasn't until I was in my late 20s that "If You Asked Me To" began to represent a moment in my love life. I was dating a guy, and we were in the car driving to his family's house because they all lived on one block.  They would all gather together on the weekend to play cards and cookout and all the kids could play freely and random games would start, and it was a lot of fun.   I loved that he enjoyed spending time with his extended family, and I could see that his nieces and nephews really loved him and enjo

I Could Fall In Love

 I Could Fall In Love - The "Seductive Romantic Confessional" I became familiar with the American singer "Selena" Quintanilla after the movie about her life was released in 1997.  I remember watching it at home and being glued to the television from beginning to end.  While watching the movie I learned that this song was the first song to crossover into the American billboard and that she sung in English. I like this song because it is so relatable.  I believe that many of us have stumbled into relationships where we realize suddenly that there could be more, and it could be great but then you question should it be?  This song sings innocently about the first moments in love when all is new, and you are wondering what it could be.   I love how this song is described as a "seductive romantic confessional.  I would not have described it as a "seductive" until I translated the words that Selena speaks midways in the song.  "I'm always dreaming o
