The former Louisville, Kentucky, police officer convicted of a civil rights offense in the death of Breonna Taylor was sentenced to 2 years and nine months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, on Monday in federal court.

Brett Hankison was found guilty of one count of violating Taylor's civil rights after he blindly shot into Taylor's apartment in March 2020. Hankison's bullets did not hit anyone.



The Department of Justice recommended that Hankison should receive one day of imprisonment and three years of supervised release in a sentencing memorandum filed Wednesday. The sentencing memorandum was signed only by department officials and none of the line prosecutors.
