Breonna Taylor Case Update Involves a $12 Million Settlement and Police Reform

In addition, fewer agencies are now imposing these rules.

Missouri lawmakers earlier this month advanced a bill that would end the decadeslong residency requirement in St. Louis, for example.

Tamika Mallory is among numerous activists in Louisville who say police reforms will be meaningless if the officers involved in Taylor's death aren't charged.

Taking the podium after Mayor Fischer spoke on Tuesday, Mallory said she was encouraged by the settlement but “to not have an indictment happen in this city is to say that, no matter how much we pay, no matter how much reform we do, we’d rather pay, we’d rather cover it than deal with the issue."
