POLICE BRUTALITY CASES: WALTER SCOTT MURDER & MORE

[Carsman]

Dallas, Texas

This is a bizarre and sad case.


Botham Jean (top left), 26, was shot to death his apartment by Dallas Police Officer Amber Guyger (top right).  Guyger is a four year veteran of the force.

Botham worked for accounting firm PwC since graduating in 2016 from Harding University, where he often led campus religious services as a student.  Rest in peace.  His mother is devastated and is upset that Guyger was allowed to remain free for days before being arrested.  

In a public statement, the mayor said that Guyger got off duty Thursday night, parked on the wrong floor of the apartment complex, entered Botham's apartment believing it was hers, and shot Botham.  He died of a gun shot wound to the abdomen.

Guyger was arrested on manslaughter charges Sunday night and booked into jail in neighboring Kaufman County before being released on bond.

District Attorney Faith Johnson said her office expects to present a "full case" to the grand jury, but didn't give a timeline. She said the panel will be able to weigh "all aspects" of the case including possible charges of manslaughter or murder.

She said the Texas Rangers, who are also investigating the case, made the decision to issue the warrant for manslaughter.

Ok parking on wrong floor is believable. Can happen

But how the hell was she able to enter Botham's apartment with her key! Not believable!
