Scott has been charged with rioting in the first degree — a felony — and two misdemeanors. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/breonna-taylor/2020/09/24/breonna-taylor-protests-louisville-state-rep-attica-scott-arrested/3526744001/">https://www.courier-journal.com/story/new...

And yes, rioting is a class D felony — the same class as former LMPD officer Brett Hankison& #39;s wanton endangerment charges.

The only criminal charges stemming from Breonna Taylor& #39;s death. Which are not actually tied to *her* death. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/breonna-taylor/2020/09/24/breonna-taylor-protests-louisville-state-rep-attica-scott-arrested/3526744001/">https://www.courier-journal.com/story/new...

Ashanti Scott, who is Attica& #39;s daughter, and @Seasoned4u were also arrested at the same time.

All three face the same charges, including the riot felony, police say.
