Upon learning that Breonna Taylor was killed, Brett Hankison said “that kind of shook me. That’s not why we were there.”
In the fifth day of testimony in Hankison’s federal civil rights trial, former Lt. Dale Massey testified he couldn’t “fathom” an officer firing 10 shots into Taylor’s home from where he was, through covered blinds and windows.
