Fired Louisville officer whose shot killed Breonna Taylor hired elsewhere as deputy

Louisville, Ky. — The former Louisville Metro Police officer who fatally shot Breonna Taylor has a new job in law enforcement.

CBS Louisville affiliate WLKY-TV reports that the Carroll County Sheriff's Office hired Myles Cosgrove, who was fired from the Louisville department in January 2021 for violating use-of-force procedures and failing to use a body camera during the raid on Taylor's apartment.

Carroll County is northeast of Louisville, about halfway between Louisville and Cincinnati.
