Four current and former Louisville police officers involved in the deadly raid on Breonna Taylor’s home have been arrested and federally charged.
Four current and former Louisville police officers involved in the deadly raid on Breonna Taylor's home -- including detectives who worked on the search warrant and the ex-officer accused of firing blindly into her home -- have been charged with civil rights violations and other counts, Attorney General Merrick Garland said Thursday.
The charges mark the first federal counts leveled against any of the officers involved in the botched raid. In addition to civil rights offenses, federal authorities charged the four with unlawful conspiracies, unconstitutional use of force and obstruction, Garland said. Taylor's mom, Tamika Palmer, said she's waited 874 days for federal charges to be filed and has beaten"everything sent to break" her.
