Results: Breonna Taylor Is On The Cover Of O Magazine — The First One Ever Without Oprah

Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman, was asleep in her bed on March 13 when police broke down the door of her Louisville, Kentucky home as part of a drug investigation. Thinking the police were home invaders, Taylor's boyfriend fired his weapon. Police then fired at Taylor, who was unarmed, eight or more times. One of the officers, Brett Hankison, was fired for misconduct. The other two other officers, Sgt. Jon Mattingly and Myles Cosgrove, were placed on administrative reassignment. None have been arrested or charged in connection with her death. For months, calls to "arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor" have been a constant refrain at protests and on social media. Are you familiar with this tragic case?

In September, for the first time in its 20-year history, Oprah Winfrey will not appear on the cover of the latest issue of O Magazine. Instead, an image of Breonna Taylor — who was killed by police in March — is being featured. "Breonna Taylor. She was just like you," Winfrey said in an announcement of the cover on Thursday. "And like everyone who dies unexpectedly, she had plans. Plans for a future filled with responsibility and work and friends and laughter." In a tribute to Taylor, Winfrey shared details about how her loved ones will remember her. "Breonna Taylor loved cars and treated her 2019 Dodge Charger like a trusted friend," Winfrey wrote. "Breonna Taylor loved chicken any way you could cook it. Breonna Taylor put hot sauce on everything, especially eggs. Breonna Taylor appreciated every kind of music and the dances that went along. Breonna Taylor treated all her friends like besties. Breonna Taylor was a force in the life of her 20-year-old sister." "Breonna Taylor had dreams," she said. "They all died with her the night five bullets shattered her body and her future." Do you think it is fitting that Breonna be featured on the cover of this magazine (which usually features influential and remarkable women all appearing with Oprah)?

Of course, although it is customary, Breonna could not be featured alongside Oprah, since they never had a chance to meet or shoot the cover picture. Also, it is fitting that Oprah not appear on the cover, since in this case, ALL the focus should be on the innocent victim at this time. As of this time, no one has been charged with the murder of this woman inside her own home. However, in mid July, 87 people were arrested outside the home of Kentucky's attorney general after they refused to leave while demanding justice for Breonna. Do you feel in this case, justice is NOT being served?

None of the three officers wore body cameras during the incident, a practice the Louisville Metro Police Department said is common for plainclothes narcotics officers. Earlier in June, Louisville lawmakers passed Breonna's Law, banning no-knock police raids and requiring officers to have their body cameras turned on while the warrant is being served. And Joshua Jaynes, the detective who applied for five no-knock search warrants, including the one for Taylor's apartment, has been placed on administrative reassignment. Do you agree that police should always be equipped with body cameras?
