Former Louisville Metro Police detective Brett Hankinson, accused in the Breonna Taylor case, has pleaded not guilty at a court hearing on Monday.

Hankinson was indicted over shots that went into a neighboring apartment during the deadly raid at Taylor's apartment in March.

He appeared in court on Monday after a grand jury charged him with three counts of wanton endangerment, none of which are directly connected to Taylor's killing.

Following the plea, Hankinson's lawyer asked the court to allow his client to be able to retain his weapons for self-defense, citing multiple threats Hankison has received. But the judge set the conditions that Hankison must not be in possession of any firearms pending a court decision.

The judge also ordered a recording of the grand jury proceedings to be added to the court file by Wednesday.

Hankinson was one of the three officers who fired shots during the controversial raid, which caused Taylor's death. The grand jury sued Hankinson last week for shots that went into a neighboring apartment occupied by a male, pregnant female, and child.

Wanton endangerment in Kentucky is defined as a person under the circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life.

This is someone who deliberately engages in conduct which creates a substantial danger of death or serious physical injury to another person. A maximum sentence of five years in prison could be ordered for each felony charge.

Meanwhile, Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron has refused to release grand jury transcripts linked to Taylor's case. This, despite growing calls to do so by the Louisville mayor, the Kentucky governor, and Taylor's family's attorneys.

However, it changed later on as Cameron announced he would follow a judge's ruling ordering a recording of a grand jury presentation be added to the court's case file.

Cameron earlier announced that he would not release any grand jury presentation as it would interfere with other investigations.

"We stand by our belief that such a release could compromise the ongoing federal investigation and could have unintended consequences such as poisoning the jury pool," Cameron said.

Cameron further noted that his team has an ethical obligation not to release the grand jury proceedings' recording. He eventually retracted his statement and said he would comply with the judge's order.

Cameron said that they would follow the judge's order to release the recording on Wednesday despite some concerns. Cameron issued the statement after Judge Ann Bailey Smith said the recording and all discovery documents could not be share simply between the parties.

Smith oversaw the arraignment of Hankinson on three counts of first-degree wanton endangerment. Taylor's family and many others have called for the grand jury transcript to be released.

Cameron said the release of these recordings would also be compliant to a legal complaint filed by an anonymous grand juror.

The juror, who wished to remain anonymous, noted the compelling public interest for these proceedings to be released.

"The citizens of this Commonwealth have demonstrated their lack of faith in the process and proceedings in this matter and the justice system itself," the juror said.

"Using the grand jurors as a shield to deflect accountability and responsibility for these decisions only sows more seeds of doubt in the process while leaving a cold chill down the spines of future grand jurors," the juror added.

Hankinson surrendered himself to the Shelby County Jail the same day he was charged but was released shortly after he posted $15,000 cash bond. He is set to go back to court at the end of October.
