The killing of Breonna Taylor, a black woman who was shot in her Louisville home by US police in March – has resonated around the world, with protesters demanding that the public “say her name”.On 23 September, one officer – Brett Hankison – was charged, not with Ms Taylor’s death but with “wanton endangerment” for firing into a neighbour’s apartment. Two other officers who were involved have not been charged. Ben Crump, lawyer from the Taylor family, said the fact that no charges had been brought in direct relation to the killing was “outrageous and offensive”.
