Nearly two years after announcing plans to investigate Louisville Metro and the city’s police department in the aftermath of the killing of Breonna Taylor, the U.S. Department of Justice released its scathing report Wednesday.

The report is 90 pages long, with a lengthy list of reported violations. U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland was set to discuss the release at a press conference Wednesday in downtown Louisville.

The report includes 36 recommended remedial measures as well, closing by noting the department “has reasonable cause to believe that Louisville Metro and LMPD engage in a pattern or practice of conduct that deprives people of their rights under the Constitution and federal law. Louisville Metro’s and LMPD’s unlawful practices harm community members and undermine public safety.”

“We look forward to working with city and police leaders, officers, and the broader Louisville community to stop the unlawful practices, build trust, and ensure that Louisville Metro and LMPD serve and protect the people of Louisville,” it concludes.
