And everyone agrees drug users should be killed however we can make it happen.

Marijuana is not even a hard core drug. Many people use it recreationally. Even if he smoked pot, why is that a mark against his character.

Especially if that lunatic is yelling at them about being in her apartment? If we believe her BS, she noticed the door was ajar, she decides to enter anyway, sees an unfamiliar man, immediately begins yelling at him and only a few seconds later the man is dying on the floor. She is lying and her fellow cops are helping her cover it up.
You're right, her story is fabricated. But I believe she banged on the door and he let her in, wondering what she wanted. It should take only a few second for someone to realize they are in the wrong apartment.

The biggest lie she told, in my opinion, is that the door was ajar. I believe she banged on the door demanding to enter.

Texas has plenty of cop prosecutions, they just sentenced one to 15 years.

She will not walk because there is no circumstances surrounding this like there are with other numerous LEO involved situations. She was not on duty and in the conduct of duty for one, two she was not pursuing a suspect or even responding to a crime scene as a first responder, and three he was in a lawful place conducting a lawful activity that cannot be disputed at all.

I predict she gets 10 years.
Texas does NOT have plenty of cop prosecutions. The cop that just got sentenced to prison is the first in 30 years in Texas to face jail.

There was absolutely no reason to mention that weed was found in his apartment whatsoever. That was the setup to plant the seed of Jean being some sort of dangerous pothead slacker. Why not mention that he had a salt shaker or bath towels in his apartment?

And in that case, his own partner bagged on him.

Bingo.

Like I said, Texas prosecutors are WEAK. They only stiff the indigent. Look at what’s going on in Waco in the aftermath of the Twin Peaks incident. All those dead bodies, and state prosecutors have come up donut after spending 1.3 million.

Once those biker’s lawyers started inundating the courts with all kinds of motions, the cases started coming apart. Biker gangs have good lawyers.

He would have been completely justified, and under the circumstances I wish he would have done exactly that.

If I'm not mistaken, she was wearing her body armor with gun drawn, and he was in his night robe.

Presuming he survived that gunfight, he'd likely not survive the subsequent gunfight that would with more police arrived and found one of their own in a puddle of blood.

That would be in line with what the I read that the witnesses said. I dont know if that is made up, or if the cops suppressed it, didnt actually interview witnesses, whatever.
