A bill weighing the subpoena power for Louisville's newly created police review board is dead for the 2021 Kentucky General Assembly, its top sponsor said in a text message.

House Bill 309 had languished amid a debate over how much authority to grant the civilian panel and its inspector general. The Senate sent the measure back to a committee on the final day of the legislative session Tuesday.

Two Atlanta police officers who were fired by Louisville police Chief Erika Shields when she led that city's department have been reinstated to their jobs.

Officers Ivory Streeter and Mark Gardner were fired after Atlanta police were shown on video pulling college students from a car and using a Taser on them during a large protest last May against police brutality and racial injustice, sparking national outrage.

They and four other officers were eventually criminally charged for their involvement. Streeter, Gardner and two other officers were fired.

The Louisville Metro Police Department has officially fired two detectives and sanctioned others for their actions surrounding the raid that left Breonna Taylor, 26, dead in her apartment.

Detectives Myles Cosgrove and Joshua Jaynes, who were fired Tuesday, are the latest detectives the department has terminated in connection with the fatal police shooting of Taylor.

A third detective, Brett Hankison, was fired in June for "blindly" firing 10 rounds into her apartment.

A 20-year veteran and former Atlanta police chief will become Louisville's next police chief, WAVE 3 News Troubleshooters have learned.

Erika Shields will soon be taking over from Louisville Metro Police Department Interim Chief Yvette Gentry, who agreed to take the job for a few months during tumultuous times and the search for a new chief.

Shields has been with the Atlanta Police Department for 25 years and became chief in December of 2016. She is openly gay and became Atlanta's second female police chief.

Citing "extreme" violations of department standards, Louisville's interim police chief plans to fire a detective who she claims lied in getting a search warrant for Breonna Taylor's apartment.

Also, Chief Yvette Gentry sent a termination letter Tuesday to the officer who fired the fatal shot killing Taylor on March 13.

In a letter, Gentry notified Detective Joshua Jaynes of her intent to fire him for breaching Louisville Metro Police Department policies on truthfulness and search warrant preparations.
