A federal jury failed to reach a verdict on civil rights charges against a former Louisville, Ky., police officer involved in the botched raid that killed Breonna Taylor. The trial resulted in a mistrial as jurors failed to reach a unanimous verdict after 3 days of deliberation. The jurors were leaning 9-3 toward finding the officer guilty on 4 charges, but no agreement was reached. The officer had previously been acquitted in a state trial for firing 10 rounds into Taylor’s apartment. The federal prosecution for allegedly violating Taylor’s civil rights has now ended in a mistrial.

This cop was acquitted for his role in the Breonna Taylor raid. The feds are prosecuting him again. The raid on Taylor's home was hideous. But prosecuting someone multiple times for the same conduct is unjust—no matter how much you detest the defendant. https://t.co/t4KKsQz4Ky
