The mother of Breonna Taylor, a woman who was shot and killed by police officers last year, claimed that a local Black Lives Matter group in Louisville, Kentucky, and other activists have exploited her daughter’s death for political reasons and money.

Tamika Palmer on Wednesday wrote on Facebook to say that Taylor’s friends and family members are the only ones who have supported her since her daughter’s death.
