Brett Hankison fired 10 shots into Breonna Taylor's glass door and windows during the raid, but didn't hit anyone
cleared a former Kentucky police detective of violating the civil rights of Breonna Taylor's neighbors by using excessive force during a botched 2020 drug raid that left Taylor dead, but found the officer guilty of using excessive force without the civil rights violation.
Hankison fired 10 shots into Taylor's glass door and windows during the raid, but didn't hit anyone. Some shots flew into a next-door neighbor's adjoining apartment.A separate jury deadlocked on both charges last year, while in 2022, a jury acquitted Hankison on state charges of wanton endangerment. A conviction on the federal charges carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Hankison testified that when Walker fired, he moved away, rounded the corner of the apartment unit and fired into Taylor’s glass door and a window.
