Beyoncé’s mother Tina Knowles had a few words for Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron for him failing to bring charges against the police officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor.

Tina reposted a series of photos that were allegedly taken over the weekend at Daniel Cameron’s engagement party. In the snaps, the Attorney General is seen smiling in various poses with his fiancé and their family members.

Beyoncé’s mom was clearly infuriated seeing the AG living it up while the officers involved have faced no consequences.

She wrote, “I was shocked to learn that the attorney general for Kentucky is a 34-year-old black man. We are ASHAMED of you brother!!! Coonery at it ‘s finest! ??”

One fan commented, “HELLO!! Miss Tina said I'm done being quiet.”

Earlier this month, Beyonce penned an open letter to the AG writing, “Dear Attorney General [Daniel] Cameron. It has now been over three months since members of the Louisville Metro Police Department killed Breonna Taylor ... Three months have passed — and zero arrests have been made, and no officers have been fired.

She continued, “The LMPD’s investigation was turned over to your office, and yet all of the officers involved in the shooting remain employed by the LMPD. Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly and Officers Myles Cosgrove and Brett Hankison must be held accountable for their actions.”

Beyoncé added, “Breonna Taylor’s family still waits for justice. Ms. Taylor’s family has not been able to take the time to process and grieve. Instead, they have been working tirelessly to rally the support of friends, their community and the country to obtain justice for Breonna. Your office has both the power and the responsibility to bring justice to Breonna Taylor, and demonstrate the value of a Black woman’s life. I urge you to use that power.”

No charges have been brought against the officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor.
