Racist Black Judge Railroading Amber Guyger

[Billiejeens]

The cop was the assailant here.

I don't believe small women should be beat cops and I have plenty of backup on that. Studies show they will drive past criminal activity rather than confront large black men. A guy with a female partner knows he has little if any help when the resisting arrest starts. Female cops are twice as apt to draw and fire their weapon as a male officer. PC feminists have insisted on women being beat cops and this is one of the outcomes for their idiocy.

So we seem to agree that she was in the wrong but the difference is, you felt a pressing need to deliver a racist rant.

You and the judge are the racists
Focus

You can counter my arguments or call me names.

The facts counter your arguments

My argument is that the police should not be able to investigate themselves. What facts have been provided to counter that?

I don't believe small women should be beat cops

How about 70-something year old men?

 

[Rigby5]

The facts are that the victim was shot and killed in his home, so then even if mistaken, then
Amber Guyger was trespassing at the time and had no right of self defense.
The fact she did not fire a warning or stop after the first shot, makes is a deliberate 1st degree murder, as well as the fact she was armed during the commission of a crime.
There is no real defense.
It is foolish to try to mitigate the fact she murdered a totally innocent person, for no reason at all.

How about 70-something year old men?

Generally the mandatory retirement age for police is 65.
There are also size and strength requirements.

However, I generally think women do a better job at being police.
Just not this one, and not with the bad training they give them.
Multiple shots used to be illegal for police.
Not they train them incorrectly to keep firing.
That is especially illegal in an apartment building.

But really, who does not recognize their own home or not being their own home?

WRONG. Cops don't fire "warning shots" and of course she was armed....she's a police officer...they are never off-duty. He was told to show her his hands and he refused and moved toward her.....oops! You've watched too many TV shows....really, just STFU.

Ridiculous analysis.....black racist can never accept the fact that the police are not out there looking for blacks to kill and not even to mention the police kill more whites than blacks.

It is quite obvious the lady in question thought she was in her own apartment...plus....had no motive to dispatch the dumb black who was so stupid to disobey a uniformed police officer.

If the moron had done as he was ordered to do he would be alive today.

Ex-officer Amber Guyger testifies in wrong-apartment murder trial: 'I was scared to death'

The former Dallas police officer accused of killing an unarmed man in his home took the stand in her own defense Friday, overcome with emotion as she told jurors about the moment she came face-to-face with the victim after opening the wrong apartment door.


"I was scared to death," Amber Guyger testified, adding that her "heart rate just skyrocketed."

Guyger walked into the apartment belonging to Botham Jean on Sept. 6, 2018, believing it was hers. Guyger was still wearing her police uniform when she fired two shots at a dumbass black who was too stupid to keep his door locked and to compound that disobeyed a uniformed policewoman.


Guyger was fired from the Dallas Police Department weeks after the shooting. She is charged with murder.


"I'm so sorry," she said as she wept on the stand, her voice trembling. "I never wanted to take an innocent person's life."
Guyger testified Friday that on the night of the shooting she was tired from a long day at work and mistakenly parked on the wrong floor. She said the parking floors at her apartment building were not clearly marked.

She re-enacted how she reached the apartment door, with her backpack, lunchbox and police vest in her left hand, and testified that she heard the sound of someone walking inside.


When Guyger put the key into the lock that night, she said she noticed the door was "cracked open" and that putting the key into the lock forced the door open to the dark apartment. Guyger said earlier she had experienced problems getting the door to lock completely at her apartment.

Guyger said she saw the silhouette of a figure, so she pulled her "gun out and I yelled at him."

"Let me see your hands! Let me see your hands!" she said she shouted.

She told the jurors the figure was moving around and she could not see his hands, and that the man "was yelling, 'Hey! Hey! Hey!' in an aggressive voice."

Guyger reenacted the next moment for the jurors, holding her right hand out as if she was holding a gun. Guyger said Jean was moving toward her when she fired.


Her attorney asked why she fired, and Guyger replied, "I was scared he was gonna kill me."

After the shooting, Guyger said she realized she was not in her own apartment and "had no idea where I was at," so she went outside to look at the apartment door.

(MORE: Lead investigator in wrong-apartment killing says he doesn't believe Amber Guyger committed a crime)
The defense attorney played Guyger's emotional call to 911 in which she repeatedly said she thought she was entering her apartment.

Guyger told the court she did a sternum rub on the victim, which is often performed by EMTs.

"I wanted him to keep breathing," she testified. "The state he was in, I knew it wasn't good."

Hermus said Guyger appeared to be planning a rendezvous with her police partner and lover. Hermus showed the jury text messages Guyger sent her partner moments before the shooting and argued that during that communication, Guyger became distracted and confused about where she was.

Investigators later learned that 93 tenants had unintentionally parked on the wrong floor, Rogers said. He said another 46 tenants who lived on the two floors where Guyger and Jean resided had gone to the wrong apartment and placed their key in the door.

The facts are that the victim was shot and killed in his home, so then even if mistaken, then
Amber Guyger was trespassing at the time and had no right of self defense.
The fact she did not fire a warning or stop after the first shot, makes is a deliberate 1st degree murder, as well as the fact she was armed during the commission of a crime.
There is no real defense.
It is foolish to try to mitigate the fact she murdered a totally innocent person, for no reason at all.

WRONG. Cops don't fire "warning shots" and of course she was armed....she's a police officer...they are never off-duty. He was told to show her his hands and he refused and moved toward her.....oops! You've watched too many TV shows....really, just STFU.

Always has to be about the participant as opposed to the subject.

There are thousands of interactions between the police and citizens everyday. The overwhelming vast majority go as they should.

When it does not, we have to quit making excuses.

 

[Preacher]

Briefly, the small white police woman got off the elevator on the wrong floor (as have dozens of others) of her apartment building, walked into what she thought was her apartment after a 13 hour duty day and was confronted by a large black man who lived in that apartment. She was still in uniform. Believing she was in her apartment, she told the man to show his hands. He refused. He started moving toward her in the dark. She drew her service weapon and double-tapped him. He died shortly thereafter.

The judge is a large, belching, yawning, stretching black woman named Tammy Kemp. So far she has ignored a defense motion for mistrial since the DA defied a court order and gave the media an interview about the case, poisoning the jury pool. She has allowed a favorable picture of the victim to be placed in front of the jury. She has denied the defense expert testimony from police officers and experts in police shootings three times, not allowing the defense to defend their client. She's sure to get a conviction the way she's run this trial and sure to be overturned on appeal. It's obvious she wants to put this little white women in a prison at the mercy of her fellow-gigantic soul sisters.

Judge blocks testimony that Dallas cop acted reasonably in shooting neighbor

She shot an innocent person,she should just get off? No. She needs to go to prison for at least 20 years. Cop or no cop I don't give a shit.
