Former Louisville detective Brett Hankison has testified that he did nothing wrong during the botched narcotics raid that left Breonna Taylor dead
“I knew Sgt. Mattingly was down and I knew they were trying to get to him and it appeared to me they were being executed with this rifle," Hankison said. “I thought I could put rounds through that bedroom window and stop the threat.”
The prosecution finished presenting its case on Tuesday withtestimony from Chelsey Napper, who called 911 after Hankison's gunfire ripped through her apartment, which shared a common wall with Taylor's. Hankison is charged with endangering Napper, her 5-year-old son and her boyfriend, Cody Etherton, while his fellow officers exchanged gunfire with Taylor's boyfriend during the raid next door.
Walker told investigators that he had fired a single shot with a handgun because he thought intruders were breaking in. Walker’s bullet hit Mattingly in the leg, and Mattingly and another officer, Myles Cosgrove, opened fire in response, killing Taylor.
