Four former and current police officers were indicted on Aug. 4 in connection with the death of Breonna Taylor.
Former Louisville Metro Police Department detective Joshua Jaynes, current Louisville officers Kyle Meany and Kelly Goodlett, and former detective Brett Hankison were charged by a federal grand jury.
Jaynes and Meant are accused of violating Taylor’s Fourth Amendment rights when they sought a warrant to search her apartment in 2020 because they allegedly knew an affidavit in support of the warrant contained false and misleading details and omitted material information.
