A former Louisville police officer involved in the 2020 raid that killed Breonna Taylor has been sentenced to 33 months in prison and three years supervised probation for violating the 26-year-old’s civil rights.
The punishment exceeds the nominal one-day sentence the Trump administration had sought for Brett Hankison, who blindly fired 10 shots into Taylor’s apartment during a no-knock police raid, none of which struck the 26-year-old or anyone else.
