Nov 2, 2024, 01:49 AM
A federal jury has delivered a partial verdict in the retrial of former Louisville police officer Brett Hankison, who was accused of violating the civil rights of Breonna Taylor and her neighbors during a botched March 2020 police raid. The jury acquitted Hankison of one count related to the neighbors but found him guilty of using excessive force and violating Taylor's civil rights by firing 10 shots. This marks the first conviction of an officer directly involved in the raid that led to Taylor's death.
