Here Are The Police Reforms Contained In The Breonna Taylor Settlement


The city of Louisville will pay $12 million to the family of Breonna Taylor and implement numerous reforms in the police department to settle a wrongful death lawsuit six months after the 26-year-old was shot by officers during a raid of her apartment.

The settlement, which comes while much of the country anxiously awaits an announcement on whether criminal charges will be filed against the officers involved in Taylor’s death, is the largest police misconduct payment the city has ever paid in a lawsuit.

Attorneys and Taylor’s family appeared with Mayor Greg Fischer at a news conference to announce the settlement. Both sides touted the reform, saying it was rare for a civil settlement and would ensure more accountability in the department. [https://bit.ly/3mmSa33]
