The incident report the Louisville police released about their murder of Breonna Taylor is almost completely blank:

Nearly three months after Louisville Metro Police officers fatally shot Breonna Taylor in her South End apartment, the department has released the incident report from that night.

Except, it is almost entirely blank.

The four-page report lists the time, date, case number, incident location and the victim’s name — Breonna Shaquille Taylor — as well as the fact that she is a 26-year-old black female.

But it redacts Taylor’s street number, apartment number and date of birth — all of which have been widely reported.

And it lists her injuries as “none,” even though she was shot at least eight times and died on her hallway floor in a pool of blood, according to attorneys for her family.

It lists the charges as “death investigation — LMPD involved” but checks the “no” box under “forced entry,” even though officers used a battering ram to knock in Taylor’s apartment door.

It also lists under the “Offenders” portion of the report the three officers who fired in Taylor’s apartment, fatally shooting her — Sgt. Jon Mattingly, 47; Myles Cosgrove, 42; and Brett Hankison, 44.

But the most important portion of the report — the “narrative” of events that spells out what happened March 13 — has only two words: “PIU investigation.”

And the rest of the report has no information filled in at all. 

I suppose this evidence that they placed no value at all on Taylor’s life is redundant, but still.
