Breonna Taylor's life and deaths was shown in public through a recently released documentary by The Courier-Journal and ABC News.

Breonna Taylor was the 26-year-old Black woman who was fatally shot in her apartment by Louisville apartment police. She has since become a national symbol for the racial justice movement, as reported by the Courier-Journal.

The documentary was a two-hour 20/20 and Courier-Journal special as closer look at the case that led police to Taylor's apartment on March 13.

This was then followed by an investigation into her death, as well as the protests that have erupted in Louisville in May, and Taylor's death causing police reforms.

The documentary shows interviews with Taylor's family and their attorney, and LMPD Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly.

Taylor's family pay tribute to her

Home videos and photos Taylor's life was also shown in the documentary. Taylor's family and loved ones described her as the star of show and a diva who loved spending time with her family.

Tamika Palmer, Taylor's mother, said that to know her was to love her. Palmer added that her daughter was so much like her name, but she is so much better than her.

Taylor's mother showed ABC her daughter's scrapbook, which shows photos from prom and graduation as well as notes she had written.

Palmer read that Taylor wrote that she was God's blessing to her mother.

""She brought me into this world as her first child, her first baby girl. From this day forward, I was living to please my mother. I feel like I owe her the world," Palmer read in a report.

Palmer earlier spoke with The Courier Journal in July about her decision to participate in activism in the wake of Taylor's death.

In earlier reports, Louisville Metro Police officers were targeting Jamarcus Glover, who is Taylor's ex-boyfriend. Reports said that Glover was part of an ongoing narcotics investigation.

Officers monitored Glover and his possible associates. Authorities also tracked his car and had set up a camera outside his suspected drug house on Elliot Avenue.

Police reportedly saw Glover drove to Taylor's apartment and left with a package driving to a known drug house. This was in January.

Police suspected Taylor might be holding drugs and cash for Glover, while Glover used Taylor's address as his own. These was shown in several records.

However, Glover earlier said that Taylor was never in any illegal activities or drugs. Glover said he only had clothes and shoes sent to her apartment.

Aside from that, the warrant that LMPD obtained to search Taylor's apartment has been since questioned. Glover still disagree about what happened around 12:40 a.m.

This was when seven officers banged on Taylor's apartment door and forced it to open. Taylor was the hit six times, including in the pulmonary artery after one of the officers fired one round from his Glock.

SWAT officers hurried to the scene, suspecting Taylor might still be inside the apartment and armed.

Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron told police and reporters that the grand jurors agreed Mattingly and Detective Myles Cosgrove 16 were justified in using deadly force.

Three grand jurors later on came forward and said they wanted to press more charges against the officers.
