A Georgia teacher who defended Breonna Taylor’s killers in a virtual class has apologized for what she now admits was her own ignorance. Video journalist David Dennis Jr. obtained shows Susan McCoy, a forensics and environmental science teacher at Pebblebrook High School in Mableton, ranting on Zoom Friday about Taylor, a 26-year-old emergency medical technician killed by police serving a no-knock drug warrant. In the rant, McCoy blamed the Kentucky woman for her own death. "I'm sorry she was killed, but you know when you hang out with people with guns that shoot at cops, you're likely to get caught in the crossfire," the teacher said, later adding that she was talking about "what's her name — Breonna something — the one that was killed in the gunfire from the cops."
