Episode 135: Sgt. John Mattingly | Author of 12 Seconds in The Dark, a Police Officer’s Firsthand Account of the BreonnaTaylor Raid

Mark Twain said "⁠A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.⁠” 

The story you’re about to hear is one of the reasons this phrase exists. 

You may think you know what happened in the tragic ⁠shooting of Breonna Taylor⁠ back in March of 2020 in Louisville KY, but no one knows the real story better than the lead officer on scene, Sergeant John Mattingly. 

Sadly, the truth has been buried by the local and national media, elected officials, hollywood stars and professional athletes and the consequences have been devastating. Until now. 

We talk about Johns book, "⁠12 Seconds in The Dark⁠, a Police Officers Firsthand account of Breonna Taylor Raid". He explains the minute by minute events of that fatal night and the subsequent fallout.

We're giving away 3 signed copies of Johns book. The first three people to send an email to parrishpodcast@gmail.com or DM us @parrishthethoughtpodcast
