Grand jury decides to indict police officer involved in Breonna Taylor’s death

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WSAZ) - More than six months after Breonna Taylor was shot by Louisville police officers during a no-knock warrant, a grand jury has decided to charge one of the officers in the case.

Detective Brett Hankison was indicted on three counts of wanton endangerment. Hankison will be booked on a $15,000 cash only bond.

The other two officers involved were not charged.

Been watching on TV. I think Louisville will see some riots about this. Very sad that this lovely woman was killed for no reason.

"Will this satisfy the mob?"

Of course not.

The "mostly peaceful" "protestors" were already bussed in from out of state. No way they are going to turn around and go away without destroying stuff.

They would have rioted even if all three officers were indicted for murder.

No. They want murder charges and public executions. Nothing else will satisfy them.

So if your boyfriend shoots a cop, and a cop accidentally shoots you when returning fire in a small room, the COP is a bad person?

Oh wait. Blacks are special! How DARE a white cop harm a Black Princess!

I just love how the MSM always portrays her in her EMT uniform. Apparently, she was a Muppet character and she never changed outfits.

As someone who often posts pro-police comments, I do have to say that I think that this is the CORRECT decision. The officer who was charged basically unloaded his clip from outside of the apartment. He endangered the occupants and his fellow officers. That being said, this is a probation case.

BLM response aside, no-knock warrants should not be allowed. Anything that resembles a no-knock warrant, like what supposedly occurred here, should not be allowed. If the surprise raid is that important, surround the house or building or compound, and then turn on the lights and sirens and loudspeakers, and give the parties inside the chance to give up, especially if they target the wrong house and their are uninvolved civilians inside.

If someone knocks in the door on my home unannounced, I would take that to be an intruder with intent to do harm. Authorities should never put someone in the position to choose between defending their life or family or trusting that its only the police who just busted their door down at 1 am in the morning.

I have to say that I do not have a problem with this outcome. Charging the officer with wanton endangerment for firing aimlessly from outside of the apartment is appropriate. I’m confident that the other officers at the scene were not happy with him basically unloading his clip into an apartment. In light of the facts, however, this sounds like a probation case to me, as the officer has already been fired.

no knock warrants are the real crime.

any cop participating in such is guilty of breaking and entering and in this case, murder...

something like 15 shots, and the only one killed was the girlfriend of the one shooting at them.

end the no knock practice.
