Ex-cop found not guilty in shooting during Breonna Taylor raid | New York Post

The only Kentucky officer criminally charged in the bungled raid on Breonna Taylor’s home was found not guilty Thursday almost two years after she was shot dead.

Ex-Louisville cop Brett Hankison had been accused of endangering Taylor’s neighbors on March 13, 2020, when he fired his gun during the raid. None of his shots hit Taylor or her neighbors, and the two other officers involved in the raid were never charged with crimes. Louisville police fired Hankison, a 20-year veteran K-9 officer, for the reckless shooting in June 2020.

Last week, the jurors visited Taylor’s home to help inform their decision.
