But will they get a murder conviction on her though vs manslaughter?
I saw the DA and she doesn't look like she can keep her wig straight.
i will say criminal negligence :francis:

this type of mistake should automatically carry 15 years minimum... your a cop... you go in the wrong appartment....you shoot...even if the real story is you went in the wrong appartment...as a cop...15 years MINIMUM.

I don't think she's going to get much time. In fact she might walk:francis:

Yea, I'm getting that feel, this case is not as easy as it appears.

I think Texas has a version of stand your ground. With affirmative defenses like this, it muddies the water. Its relies on the subjective mind state of the perpetrator rather than the surrounding circumstances and if it was actualul reasonable for her to be in fear of her life or actual bodily harm.

It doesn't matter if it was not her apartment but the thought it was her apartment is enough for self defense to work in this one :francis:

This is not clear cut murder because I dont think the criminal intent is there and she has the self defense too on top of it too.

Its wild and People may be upset but I think I know how this will play out :francis:.


A civil suit by the family against the police department for negligence by having her work 40 hours in four days is the more likely way to get some justice here.

I hear they couldn’t charge her with manslaughter because in Texas that means it would require the DA to show it was an accident with no intent to murder the victim and she clearly had intent to murder him, even if she claims she was mistaken on the apartments. Manslaughter there is like if you are cleaning your gun and it accidentally goes off and shoots your neighbor who dies. It’s a pure act of negligence

The DA had to charge her with murder, since she knowingly shot him. In “Fry’em” Texas this would be a close and shut case except she is a white woman police officer and the victim is black so we got to hope justice is served.

I was watching this over the weekend. His neighbor almost made me cry and the coach handled himself well on the stand. I need to catch up. She was obviously drunk.

And her not rendering him aid even though she was properly trained on CPR and other life saving methods shows me she is a piece of shyt person.
