"We speak to civil rights lawyer Ben Crump about the ongoing epidemic of anti-Black police violence and impunity for law enforcement in the United States. Crump first comments on the sentencing of Brett Hankison, a former Louisville police officer who fired 10 bullets into Breonna Taylor’s home in 2020 during a botched raid, to 33 months in prison for use of excessive force.

In a closely watched decision, this week a federal judge in Kentucky sentenced the former Louisville police officer who blindly fired 10 bullets into Breonna Taylor’s home in 2020 during a botched raid. Brett Hankison was sentenced to 33 months in prison for using excessive force during the deadly no-knock police raid that killed Breonna Taylor in her own home. U.S. District Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings rejected the prosecutor’s recommendation to have Brett Hankison sentenced to just one day in prison, calling the effort “not appropriate.” Some of the bullets he fired penetrated the walls of a neighbor’s home, where a family was sleeping. Taylor was a Black 26-year-old emergency room technician whose killing sparked nationwide racial justice protests under the banner of “Black Lives Matter.”
