      Sounds like it’s time for more protests then. I’m hoping. This doesn’t directly affect me since I’m not in the US but man it must feel like a gut punch for the black community in general and her family in particular. Hope Americans get their house back in order.

    What was he charged with? I’m not defending him, this shit was obviously wrong, but it says this dude didn’t hit anyone. What happened to the asshole who actually killed her?

      If I remember correctly correctly, it was something like reckless discharge or a firearm. It’s bullshit, but it’s all the “justice” her family will see.

        Deprivation Of Rights Under Color Of Law is the one, by the looks of it. Which explains to some degree why every news outlet is describing it the way they are. NBC gives the actual name https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/breonna-taylors-family-heartbroken-one-day-sentence-recommendation-ex-rcna219947

      It was a civil rights violation.

      I mean, this guy didn’t kill her. The guy that did didn’t even get charged.
