Un-freaking-believable; federal prosecutors are trying to get charges dropped against the former police officers responsible for Breonna Taylor's death. It's a good thing there are state charges against Derek Chauvin or they'd work to have his charges dropped as well.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Federal prosecutors asked a judge Friday to dismiss the charges against two Louisville officers accused of falsifying the warrant that led police to raid Breonna Taylor’s apartment the night she was killed six years ago.

Prosecutors said in a court filing that their review of the case showed the charges against former Detective Joshua Jaynes and former Sgt. Kyle Meany should be “dismissed in the interest of justice.”

Judges have twice reduced a felony charge against each officer to a misdemeanor, saying there wasn’t a direct link between the false information in the warrant and Taylor’s death. Prosecutors said after the second ruling that they had decided to drop the cases.

As the article states, it is good thing Chauvin was a State crime or he would be released as well.
