Dean, who has pleaded not guilty, has been free on $200,000 bond. Now 38, he is charged with killing Jefferson on Oct. 12, 2019, after a neighbor called a non-emergency police line to report that the front door to Jefferson’s home was open.
Bodycam video showed Dean approaching the door of the home where Jefferson was caring for her nephew.

That question and the potential testimony of another officer who was there that night are likely to be key points at trial.and moved into her mother’s home months before the shooting there to help as the older woman’s health declined.
