Ex-police officer sentenced to three years in prison over Breonna Taylor death

Editor’s Note: This case became a flashpoint in the fight for police accountability, especially around the use of no-knock warrants and racial disparities in law enforcement. While the sentencing brings some closure, many will see it as a small measure of justice—Taylor’s family and activists have long argued that no one was held fully responsible for her death. The outcome underscores how complex and fraught these cases can be, even when they capture national attention.
