The former Louisville police officer who fatally shot Breonna Taylor has a new job in law enforcement in a county northeast of the city. The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday confirmed the hiring of Myles Cosgrove, who was fired from the Louisville Metro Police Department in January 2021 for violating use-of-force procedures and failing to use a body camera during the raid on Taylor’s apartment, WHAS-TV reported. Taylor, a Black woman, was killed March 13, 2020, by police executing a narcotics search warrant. Investigators believe Cosgrove fired the bullet that killed Taylor. None of the three white officers who fired into Taylor’s home were charged by a grand jury in her death. Robert Miller, chief deputy in Carroll County, pointed to that fact in reference to Cosgrove’s hiring.
