Louisville police have fired officer Brett Hankison for his role in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor
Officer Brett Hankison has been terminated, effective Tuesday, for his role in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor, Louisville Metro Police announced.
In a letter, interim Chief Robert Schroeder wrote that after the pretermination hearing held Tuesday, Schroeder decided to proceed and fire Hankison. "It's another good, small step," said Sam Aguiar, an attorney for Taylor's family."We won't be satisfied until rightful charges are brought against him, until charges are brought against everyone responsible for Breonna's death.
Quoting from the Police Merit Board's rules, Schroeder notes that any appeal from Hankison is due in writing within 10 days and"must include a statement of the grounds for appeal."
