— mistaking his apartment for hers and believing he was a burglar — was shown for the first time in court Tuesday.after the shooting, is seen in the apartment of her neighbor, Botham Jean, briefly in one of the bodycam videos on the night of Sept. 6, 2018. Guyger was off duty but in uniform when she got home to her apartment complex, where she had moved in two months before.When the arriving officers ask her where Jean was shot, she replies:"Top left. Top left.
Dallas police Officer Michael Lee, whose bodycam was shown, testified at trial Tuesday that Jean still had a pulse, but was unable to communicate. Jurors got a look inside of Jean's apartment: It was cluttered with dishes and food left out. Light was emanating from a television and laptop. A bowl of vanilla ice cream that he had been eating was left beside the laptop. Prosecutors said it smelled of marijuana, which he used for his attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
The idea that Guyger, 31, could have missed all the sensory cues and entered Jean's apartment, then fired on him without determining she was in the wrong apartment, is at the heart of this trial, which resumes Wednesday with more testimony expected from investigators. The defense is arguing that while Guyger made a mistake, she did so without the criminal intent of murder, and believed she needed to defend herself because her life was in danger.
She killed someone-time to pay the price!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to believe her, I really do! But it’s hard !
The layout, the smell, the furniture, all should have triggered your sense of not being in your own apartment, not to mention the number on the door. This is complete BS. faketears
She had a taser at the time too.
How did she even get in the apartment? I don’t buy it.
I don't believe her for one minute. Good thing I'm not a juror.
Her crying was barely really fake poor acting. If you going to carry a gun you can't just go around thinking crap in your head and shooting people.👎☠☠☠☠☠☠☠☠
Fear not, Trump and GOP are in power. It will only be a slap on the wrist.
plus if you look closer, no tearsssss, great acting
She needs to be held accountable for her actions. “Accidents/mistakes” still have consequences. No one is above the law. Prove it by charging her as guilty and making her serve her time!
The problem with this argument is the deadly force used.
Let’s not forget what happened when the roles were reversed
Unless the two dwellings had the exact same furniture and accessories, that's highly doubtful.
Guilty.
The new argument during shootings. I thought I lived there. The real reason you hide at a surprise birthday party is to put cover between you and the potential shooter.
Why was she wearing a body cam when she was off duty?
She should of never become a cop to begin with.
I bet she gets off even if she’s guilty.
This was a deliberate, planned execution.
I’ve opened the door to a wrong apartment a couple of times in my life and you know immediately when you walk in it’s not yours. The smell and the look of the apartment. I recognize all this without even taking a step inside the apartment and then close the door.
1. she's a cop she knows when cops arrive body cameras will be rolling 2. How long did she have from incident to arrival of cops to prepare herself to say that and look appropriately in shock TotalBSManipulation WomenCanBeScaryToo
Tragic accident.... but she killed a man. She has to repay that debt
IT WAS MURDER PLAN AN SIMPLE.
Has it been asserted if Amber Guyger a rack head or was otherwise in an altered Hallucinogenic state? If not she ought to be Institutionalized, for she's in Fact mentally Deranged..
WoW! That easy hein?
Another reason to ALWAYS keep your apartment door locked.
I don't know about that...I feel funny when I walk in to the wrong bathroom before I even get any visual cues. Certainly her apartment doesn't smell like his. is there video footage of her apartment to compare?
Strange. Thinking ability was functioning properly all month, cognitive impairment after pulling the trigger
It's called 'situational awareness' it's one of the key components of being a responsible gun owner, a sworn officer lacking the basest of skills required to pick up a firearm, let alone wear a badge is, not. A. Good. Strategy.
So I walked all the way in, past the kitchen that didn't look anything at all like mine, and shot him on the couch where he was watching TV. Something stinks here. murder
Then why didn't she take a minute to step out into the hallway, backing out with her gun drawn to make sure she was in the right apartment? And she couldn't tell by how it was furnished? Or there weren't other tell tale signs she wasn't in her apartment?
Nonsense, her key could not have opened the door. The victim must have opened it for her. I think it was pre-mediated.
Even if she thought that, why actually shoot the guy if he wasn't physically threatening her? Makes ZERO sense for a trained officer. CNN
So, how did you get in and did you recognize your things in there? Girl, bye you are a murderer 👹
Murder requires forethought, doesn’t it? Overcharged? Negligent homicide more like it. Either the plea offer was not made or she did not accept it.
she was drunk off her ass. she still is.
This isn't a defense at all, if she gets off get ready for riots again.
Humans aren’t responsible enough to carry firearms designed to murder, police officer or otherwise.
She needs to go to jail same way if it was a civilian who did the same and only the victim was a officer they would throw the book at the person.
Stupidity isn't an excuse for murder.
Was she drunk or high?
