The Republican Women’s Club of South Central Kentucky hosted an event for John Mattingly (one of the cops who murdered Breonna Taylor) and thought that was a good idea. Turns out, it wasn't. Gubernatorial candidate Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles backed out of the event at the last minute, because of the controversy. The Bowling Green Country Club was initially hosting it but almost backed out due to mounting public pressure. $40 a person for a former cop to profit off of someone's murder-by-cops.

Despicable.

Diners at a Greek restaurant in Bowling Green, Kentucky, on Tuesday night were subjected to police body camera footage from the night Breonna Taylor was shot and killed in her Louisville apartment in 2020, according to the local NAACP and restaurant patrons.

The Republican Women’s Club of South Central Kentucky scrambled to find a new venue for an event featuring former-Louisville-police-officer-turned-conservative-author-and-pundit John Mattingly after the initial location for its dinner, the Bowling Green Country Club, said it would no longer host the group. Additionally, gubernatorial candidate and Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles backed out of the event because of the mounting controversy around Mattingly’s attendance, according to Spectrum News in Louisville.

Mattingly was one of the three police officers who raided Taylor's home and fired shots while searching her apartment for her ex-boyfriend, Jamarcus Glover. He was not in the apartment at the time. Glover was handed a five-year probation sentence in 2021 after he accepted a plea deal from prosecutors for charges related to narcotics.
