Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday announced a Justice Department investigation into the practices of the Louisville Police Department. The impending probe will come a little over a year after officers with the department shot and killed Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old aspiring nurse, in her own home during a botched raid. The department came under intense scrutiny following the incident and her killing, along with that of several other Black Americans, led to widespread protests in the US over policing and racial injustice. | | | | | | | | |
