Jury selection rescheduled in trial of officer involved in Breonna Taylor's death

Jury selection has been rescheduled in the trial of officer involved in Breonna Taylor's death.

Jury selection has been rescheduled to Thursday in the trial of a former Kentucky police officer who was involved in the botched raid that killed Breonna Taylor.

Brett Hankison's trial was initially scheduled to begin Aug. 31, 2021, but was delayed due to COVID-19 restrictions. Now Hankison's trial is being delayed due to an unscheduled recent surgery.

Hankison is charged with three counts of wanton endangerment for firing into neighboring apartments while serving a "no-knock" warrant on Taylor's apartment on March 13, 2020.

He and Louisville Metro Police Department officers Myles Cosgrove and Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly fired 32 shots into Taylor's apartment.
