Officials announced on Wednesday that the investigation by the Justice Department into law enforcement in Louisville, Kentucky – which was initiated in response to Breonna Taylor’s death – has uncovered violations of civil rights, Fox News reported.

According to the Justice Department’s “comprehensive” review, it has been determined that both the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) and the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government (Louisville Metro) engage in conduct that violates federal law and the U.S. Constitution, following a “pattern or practice” of such behavior.

“The Department also announced that it has entered into an agreement in principle with Louisville Metro and LMPD, which have committed to resolving the department’s findings through a court-enforceable consent decree with an independent monitor, rather than contested litigation,” it said.

Attorney General Merrick Garland expressed that certain behaviors by officers were deemed “unacceptable” and “heartbreaking.”
