Detectives Myles Cosgrove and Joshua Jaynes with the Louisville Metro Police Department have been officials fired for their roles the night 26-year old Breonna Taylor was shot and killed by police who burst into her apartment with a no-knock warrant on March 13th.
The FBI determined that the bullet that fatally wounded Taylor was fired by Cosgrove. He was terminated for violating procedures for use of force and for having his body camera turned off during the raid. Jaynes was fired for being in violation of department policy and for giving “untruthful” information to obtain the warrant. LMPD Detective Brett Hankison, who was also at the scene that night was let go in June for going against protocol firing “blindly” into Taylor’s and a neighboring apartment.
