if that try by the DOJ for a 1-day inside & 3 years' supervision on release had been ordered, there would have been hell raised for its injustice. Having said that, the cop who shot her is still waking free
The attempt for the single day sentence came strictly from the DOJ, with no prosecutors signing off on it.

The attempt for the single day sentence came strictly from the DOJ, with no prosecutors signing off on it.
The former Louisville, Kentucky, police officer convicted of a civil rights offense in the death of Breonna Taylor was sentenced to 33 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, on Monday in federal court.
Brett Hankison was found guilty of one count of violating Taylor's civil rights after he blindly shot into Taylor's apartment in March 2020. Hankison's bullets did not hit anyone.
Taylor was fatally shot during the 2020 raid, during which three officers fired dozens of rounds after her boyfriend fired one round at them, striking one of the officers.
Hankison fired 10 rounds through Taylor's sliding glass door and window, which were covered with blinds and curtains, prosecutors said. Several of the rounds traveled into Taylor's neighbor's apartment. None of the 10 rounds hit anyone.
