The Justice Department has asked a federal judge to sentence a former Louisville, Kentucky, police officer, convicted of violating the civil rights of Breonna Taylor, to one day in prison. Last year, a federal jury convicted Brett Hankison for using excessive force as he discharged several gunshots through Taylor’s apartment window during a botched raid that killed Taylor inside her own home in 2020. Taylor was a Black, 26-year-old emergency room technician, whose killing sparked nationwide racial justice protests.
