Louisville and Justice Dept. Reach Deal on Federal Oversight of Police
Briefly

The city of Louisville and the Justice Department have reached a consent decree to address police misconduct, inspired by Breonna Taylor's tragic shooting in 2020.
The Justice Department's investigation highlighted excessive force and discrimination, prompting an agreement that mandates changes in police policies and response to protests.
Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke emphasized that police reform is a lengthy process but believes it will yield significant improvements over time.
Louisville's Mayor Craig Greenberg noted that while improving police practices, the city is aiming to limit oversight to five years.
