- Former officer Brett Hankison will be charged with multiple counts of wanton endangerment. Hankison was fired in June.
- Myles Cosgrove and Jonathan Mattingly - the other two officers who fired their weapons the night Taylor was killed - will not be charged.
- "Wanton endangerment" is a class D felony and carries a penalty of one to five years in prison.
