TL;DR Summary

The federal civil rights trial of former Louisville police officer Brett Hankison, charged with civil rights violations for the death of Breonna Taylor, has ended in a mistrial after the jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict. Hankison, who was acquitted in a separate state trial last year, was the only officer to face criminal charges for firing his weapon during the botched raid on Taylor's apartment. Federal prosecutors will now decide whether to retry Hankison. Three other officers have also been charged in connection with the case.
