The Ohio State University president slammed a Kentucky grand jury’s decision not to charge cops in Breonna Taylor’s death, saying this “does not feel like justice.”

In a video message Wednesday, Dr. Kristina Johnson called on students not to “accept” that charges were only filed against Officer Brett Hankison for firing into the homes of Taylor’s neighbors during a March 13 raid in Louisville.

“Breonna Taylor deserves justice and this does not feel like justice,” Johnson said in the clip posted to Twitter. “We cannot accept what has happened in Louisville.”

She continued that “the breakdown in the justice system and the killings of unarmed black and brown people in our country has become all too familiar.”

“This isn’t going to stop until we create an anti-racist world,” Johnson said.

Taylor, a 26-year-old EMT, was sleeping in her apartment when cops entered her home during a narcotics investigation and shot her multiple times after her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, fired his legally licensed gun once at what he believed were home invaders.
