ITV News published this video item, entitled “Breonna Taylor: Officer indicted for ‘wanton endangerment’ over shooting | ITV News” – below is their description.
For six months, the death of Breonna Taylor has ignited demands for racial justice across America. Here in Louisville, her hometown and Kentucky’s biggest city, there has been a vigil in her memory for more than 100 straight days. Along with George Floyd, the African-American man choked to death by a police officer on the streets of Minneapolis, the killing of Ms Taylor was a defining moment in this summer’s protest movement. Now a Grand Jury has just indicted one of the officers who opened fire during a raid with three counts of “wanton endangerment”, a much less serious charge than murder or manslaughter which many people had called for. The officer, Brett Hankinson, had already been sacked by the police department.
