Two former Louisville Metro police officers were sentenced to time in federal prison Wednesday for throwing drinks at pedestrians while on duty.
Prosecutors with the United States Department of Justice say Curt Flynn and Bryan Wilson pelted random residents with drinks as they drove by in their police cruiser. This happened dozens of times between August 2018 and September 2019. FBI investigators recovered roughly 40 video recordings that showed Wilson and Flynn treating the civil rights violations like a game. The two officers were sentenced separately in back-to-back hearings.
