UPDATE: This first version of this article was published before Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced that a grand jury had indicted a former police officer involved in Breonna Taylor’s death on three counts of wanton endangerment. Still, several Congressional Democrats continued to accuse law enforcement of murdering her, claiming justice had not been served. Originally headlined “14 Dems In Congress Who Said Law Enforcement ‘Murdered’ Breonna Taylor,” this list has been updated and expanded to include those elected officials.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is among the chorus of progressives who have vaguely demanded justice and accountability in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old black woman who was killed by white police officers who raided her Louisville, Kentucky home in March. Many of those calls have not accused the cops involved of specific crimes. But some of Sen. Biden’s Democratic colleagues in Congress concur with the legal analysis of the Jonas Brothers, Kim Kardashian, and Michelle Obama, who concluded early on that law enforcement murdered Taylor.
