Four police officers were charged with federal crimes related to the death of Breonna Taylor.
US Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday announced the Justice Department is charging four current and former Louisville police officers in connection with the raid that killed Breonna Taylor.
The FBI arrested four police officers on Thursday – including a detective who was already cleared by a jury!
Taylor was killed during a knock and announce drug raid on March 13, 2020 during which her boyfriend shot at police and they returned fire. LMPD Sgt. Jon Mattingly was shot during the exchange and has now recovered.
In September 2020, Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced there would be no charges filed against two of the Louisville police officers involved in the shooting of Breonna Taylor, while the third was charged with “wanton endangerment.”
Detective Brett Hankison was indicted on three counts of “wanton endangerment in the first degree” by a grand jury.
Wanton endangerment is a Class D felony, punishable by one to five years in prison.
A jury in March of this year found Hankison not guilty on all three counts of felony wanton endangerment.
Now Merrick Garland is going after Brett Hankison and three other Louisville police officers.

The FBI under Garland is worse than any other institution in American history.
You dare not touch the sacred cows who are black criminals. If you do, your blaspheme is worthy of death
Gauleiter Garland is pleased with the ongoing destruction of local police forces.
Obama’s Shadow Presidency has turned the FBI into the Gestapo.
Obama and Holder succeeded in Federalizing and putting under the neo-marxist thumb, all 3000+ local police forces.
More like the SS, than Gestapo.
He’s not charging her drug dealer boyfriend who started the needless gunfight with cops that resulted in her death? If he was white he would have been charged with murder.
As usual.....Black Privilege via Deep State paid frontmen.
Let people police themselves, or not.
Let it begin.
The most politicized FBI in American history and a direct threat to this republic.
So, someone explain this one to me..
The cops execute a knock and announce raid and your boyfriend shoots at police they return fire, and you end up hit and killed...
What have the cops done wrong here? It’s a tragedy for sure, but how are the cops the guilty party here?
How is the cops returning fire “wanton endangerment”?????
Cops are supposed to just sit by and be shot at and do nothing?
Most corrupt dysfunctional DOJ in American history. They hate, hate, hate, patriots and cops.
I’d cheer if every active police officer walked off their job.

I thought the exact same thing before I even read your post. In this day and age I doubt you’d get widespread solidarity, and in a lot of places I would be surprised if activist DAs tried to charge police for dereliction or something like that, but I’d cheer too.
“Obama’s Shadow Presidency has turned the FBI into the Gestapo”.
Absolutely. A combination of Gestapo and SS.
How is this a federal issue? Clearly, there are entirely too many laws to equally enforce. These laws sit on a shelf, gathering dust until a political statement needs to be made. That’s not justice. It’s not effective. It doesn’t make society safe.
The FBI isn’t under Garland. That’s the kicker.
He will NEVER be a USSC Justice - EVER! And on day one of Trump’s 2024 Administration he’ll be given his termination letter.
The NEW AG can then decide how to charge him for the crimes, persecution and harassment he’s been doing as AG under President Huggies.
He deserves serious prison time.
The FBI is the now a secret national police agency and the DoJ is a tool of the Democrats - even when a Republican is president.
The democrats are clearly desperate to mobilize the black vote for this year’s midterm elections.
