@NataliePage@ProjectRapeMyth Yep, that’s a thing in some states, former LMPD Pablo Cano, 5 counts of “non consensual sex” a misdemeanor for several rapes he confessed to https://t.co/TiEnUd5qtE
@JasonRileyWDRB Hey Jodi only 7 in 1000 rapist do jail time, I’d say Cano’s guilt was very apparent, and is being a registered sex offender in Miami, going to jail again for not registering, doing better? He remarried Georgie after prison so apparently you’ll always be last on his list
@JasonRileyWDRB Somehow former LMPD serial rapist Pablo Cano made it out alive from prison. Consequences of your actions, whatever that is seems fair , reminder there are several credible claims of SA by Hankison also, LMPD looked the other way
@NYBLOOMER63 @JasonRileyWDRB You and cano go way back, stop protecting him, he raped over a dozen women and had CSM of a 4-6 year old being brutally assaulted. 3 yrs outweighs the crime? Cano’s been your abuser for years, you admitted the STIs he gave you and years of abuse, I have the receipts, STFU
5 years after George Floyd, police are killing more people not less. The Mapping Police Violence organization tracked more than 1,000,000 cases of fatal and non-fatal force at https://t.co/CZMUJNhZ5S, the largest database of its kind in the U.S. Here’s what we found.🧵
Statement on the Current State of Police Accountability and the Mayor’s Response
By Shameka L. Parrish-Wright *
I’ve just returned from Washington, D.C., and with a heavy heart, I must say: what so many of us feared has now come to pass. I had hoped our city would honor the process and take real steps toward transforming policing—not through carefully worded press conferences or symbolic gestures, but through tangible, community-rooted action. That hope feels betrayed. The Department of Justice dropped our Consent Decree and that reduces the checks and balances we need.
The people of Louisville deserve more. We deserve accountability and transparency at every level of government, especially within the Louisville Metro Police Department. Time and again, LMPD has shown that it is incapable of policing itself equitably. The abuses of power—both internal and external—have persisted for far too long.
While my role in this movement has evolved since 2020, my commitment has not wavered. I remain dedicated to fighting for an uncorrupted, unbiased system of public safety—one that centers community protection over control. We must acknowledge that our mayor, his administration, and the current police leadership cannot—and should not—do this alone. The people must be brought into the process meaningfully, not merely informed after decisions are made.
Mayor Greenberg’s press conference raised more questions than answers. It was polished, yes—but lacking in substance where it matters most:
He wore a suit (someone texted me this) something he rarely does. So how long had he known this news was coming? Who did he inform? Certainly not those of us on the front lines of this work.
He failed to name or involve grassroots activists or social justice organizations in the new group he’s forming. That is unacceptable. Their inclusion must be a demand, not a request.
He dodged questions about the future of Inspector General Ed Harness. Is the administration considering a replacement without community input?
He touted a $750,000 investment—yet we don’t know who these pre-selected groups are, or how they were chosen. That amount of funding, without accountability or community voice, is performative at best.
The administration’s record on transparency and community involvement is abysmal, and the people see through it.
As a member of Metro Council, I know we hold the power of the purse. But without unified political will, that power is hollow. Too many of my colleagues are quick to approve increased budgets for law enforcement while failing to use those same mechanisms to demand real accountability. We must do both. I support our officers and our residents—and I believe we can equip police to do their jobs fairly and hold them accountable when they fail to do so.
Mayor Greenberg wants a second term. We must use that desire to push for what our community truly needs. The people are not asking for chaos—they are demanding justice. And if our leaders continue to ignore them, history tells us what comes next: uprising. Because that, as Dr. King said, is the language of the unheard.
I will continue this work in whatever form it takes—because Louisville deserves better. And we won’t stop until we get it. Justice for #BreonnaTaylor and too many more...

@antifaoperative That is at 8th division LMPD, Louisville ky, it doesn’t take much to google the atrocities that LMPD has done, SA to children in the Explorer program, many r*pist among them, this dude fits right in
THREAD. Tomorrow is the official release of my book Copaganda. It was years in the making. Please get it (all royalties go to charity), buy a copy for a friend, and ask your library to carry it. I want to say one important thing about it in **this** political moment.
@WDRBNews@StephanWDRB So they’ll charge and sentence this guy to 19+ yrs but when LMPD Pablo Cano does the same in addition to over a dozen violent r*pes he gets 3 yrs, and they refused fed prosecution, wtf these creeps should be put away for life, they’re dangerous predators #lmpd#pabloCano
Don't forget to pre-order and also ask your local bookstore to carry it. All royalties are donated to charity, and we are going to send free copies to any teacher and person in prison who wants them. Help support the critical discussion we need about the moment we're living in.

As I discuss in my upcoming copaganda book, it’s important to reflect on why police and prosecutors do not address—and indeed exacerbate—violence. It takes a breathtaking propaganda apparatus to deceive people about this.
