One of the three police officers involved in the death of Breonna Taylor has been terminated from the force.
Brett Hankison was fired from the Louisville Metro Police Department on Tuesday, more than three months after Taylor’s death.
Taylor, a 26-year-old African American emergency room technician, was killed by police on March 13 after the three officers used a «no-knock» warrant to enter her apartment around 12:40 a.m. as part of a drug investigation.
Earlier this month, the Louisville, Kentucky Metro Council unanimously passed Breonna’s Law, which outlaws «no-knock» warrants and requires that police body cameras be turned on before and after every search.
