After three days of deliberations, a Louisville jury has reached a verdict in the federal retrial of a former LMPD detective charged in the Breonna Taylor case.
Brett Hankison was charged with violating the civil rights of Taylor and her neighbors the night of a botched raid at her apartment in March 2020.
Friday afternoon, the jury sent a note to Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings saying they believed they could not reach a unanimous decision. She encouraged them to reread the jury instructions and continue with deliberations, reminding them it was their "duty to make every reasonable effort you can to reach unanimous agreement."
Hours later, the jury returned to the courtroom saying they have found Hankison not guilty of violating the civil rights of Breonna Taylor's three neighbors who lived in an apartment adjacent to hers.
