She isn’t gonna do a day in prison for this even if she’s found guilty. Texans love their cops, and they save tough justice for the poor and powerless in that state. This cop has a union behind her, so the prosecutor and judge will blink first.
That aside, the city is gonna try to settle this thing outta court for the cheapest amount of dough they can. It’ll be interesting to see how far the family will take the lawsuit.
Noise complaints proceeded the incident in which a Dallas cop shot and killed a black man in his own apartment.
“The only connection we have been able to make is that she was his immediate downstairs neighbor,” Meritt said. “And there were noise complaints from the immediate downstairs neighbors about whoever was upstairs, and that would have been Botham. In fact, there were noise complaints that very day about upstairs activity in Botham’s apartment. Botham received a phone call about noise coming from his apartment from the downstairs neighbor.”
If you bust into my home and start waving a gun around, I now have some sort of obligation to "follow your verbal commands"?
No you do not. Many times a person does not but the excuse generally is "let them violate your rights and you won't get hurt". Well...........it often times does not work and we need to change this idea to the police understanding they can NEVER violate a persons rights.
That may not be a perfect example here but she had in her head "Do what I say instinctively, even though your instincts are telling you something else and do it NOW or I will kill you".
And if she had been a black man and he a white woman, he is in custody immediately. He doesn't get three days and special treatment to get his "story" straight.
In the exact scenario you mention, it took 8 months for that black somali cop to be arrested for shooting and killing Justine Damond a white female behind her home in a nightgown.

That seemed like forever...wondered if they'd ever get him...
The complaint was about Jean, and apparently had been made several times by the "downstairs neighbor", one being made that very day.
How? She was at work for 15 hours ending at 10, meaning there wouldn't have been a complaint coming from her about noise upstairs that day.
I think some people are making things up to try to make it appear that she intentionally murdered this man. I don't really buy their claims just yet. They don't make a lot of sense and seem unlikely.
