    None of Hankison’s shots hit Taylor, but some of the bullets traveled through the apartment into a neighboring one, with a pregnant woman, a man, and a 5-year-old child inside, leading to charges of wanton endangerment.
    ...
    “The fact that Brett Hankinson was not even charged for Breonna Taylor’s killing and only faced charges for the wanton endangerment of her white neighbors was a slap in the face for Breonna and her family,” [Ben Crump, an attorney for Taylor's family] said. “...We demand real police reform, including a federal ban of no-knock warrants and improved training for law enforcement officers."
    ...
    Hankison [said] he thought his partners’ lives were in danger. Jonathan Mattingly, a supervisor on the raid team, had been shot by Taylor’s boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, who had a permit to legally carry a handgun. [Walker thought] he and Taylor were the targets of an attack as police broke down the door.
