The circumstances of the case bear striking similarities to the investigation and subsequent raid that resulted in the police killing of Breonna Taylor.
Jefferson Circuit Court Judge Charles Cunningham received a private reprimand, but he confirmed to KyCIR that he was the subject of the discipline.
Members say they have received no schedule and little guidance from the Attorney General. They are unsure what the specific aim of the task force will be.
The judges met confidentially Tuesday and didn’t answer questions about the vote until Friday afternoon.
The proposal would overhaul the court’s process for issuing search warrants with the aim to boost transparency.
The LMPD made the change shortly after KyCIR and WDRB reported the state issued the new forms — and LMPD wasn’t using it.
Law enforcement agencies in Kentucky have a new way to bring more transparency to the process of obtaining a search warrant, but police in Louisville aren’t using it.
