The Louisville federal courthouse will close as the city anticipates a decision in the investigation of Breonna Taylor’s death at the hands of police. This week, Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron could announce whether Sergeant Jonathan Mattingly, officer Myles Cosgrove, and former officer Brett Hankinson will be charged with murder, or other offenses.
