- Protests over the police-shooting death of a black man inside his own apartment in Dallas grew tense overnight. More than 100 people gathered to demand justice for Botham Jean who was shot last Thursday by off-duty police officer Amber Guyger. Omar Villafranca reports.

I can't help but notice how the media isn't highlighting the fact this man was a youth pastor. If he had a criminal record, they wouldn't have wasted any time pointing that out.
right...if he was a criminal that would be the focus as it paints the picture that a criminal should be no longer.
Barry Risper : White FAKE Media....Trump lies...but he told the truth about White FAKE news.
That's just like the media ignoring the fact that Freddie Grey's back or spine was broken when they put him in the back of the van. His legs were totally limp.
There you go!
Barry Risper
Exactly!!!
1. She was on the wrong floor
2. She was at the wrong apartment
3. She didn't notice that red door mat in front of the door
4. She used a key fob though the door was partially open as per the affidavit
5. She saw an intruder though it was apparently pitch dark
6. She didn't turn on the lights entering her home
7. She identified herself to a man who worked at Pricewaterhouse Cooper as an officer of the law & he DIDN'T follow commands risking at LEAST a possible detainment and his job
8. Why was the gun the first thing she used?
9. How does an officer of 4 YEARS NOT recognize WHERE she is?
10. *WE WANT JUSTICE*
agree this is why Colin is on a knee
Justice is a false idol. I would seek "righteous retribution".
Daaamn....
you a lawyer or something like that a.... 👍
Good Work There Buddy!!
1. Wrong floor, simple mistake as she parked on the floor above hers, and she had just worked a 15 hours shift.
2. Wrong apartment, thats true for sure, but it was the apartment exactly above hers. These apartment floors all look the same.
3. id like to hear her reasoning about the red doormat. seems hard to miss, but when your in a rush to get in and after a long day, big details can get missed. Maybe she had to pee really bad? You ever meet a woman that didnt have to pee after a long day of work?
4. its possible that when she put the key in the door it sprung open. This would explain her not noticing the door being ajar from the get go.
5. Pitch dark? probably not as there would have been light coming from outside where she was standing. If there wasnt any light out there, how could she have seen the red doormat? you cant have it both ways.
6. supposedly she saw the intruder first thing and drew her gun and shouted commands. it wasnt until after she fired the shots that she turned the light on. we shall see if her side of the story holds water in a court of law.
7. If someone stormed into my house and told me to get on the floor and was waving a gun, i wouldnt do it. I would probably run or try to attack them. Would you just lay down and obey every command?
8. This might offend some people, but its because she is a woman. had this been a man, probably wouldnt have been a shot fired, most likely a few laughs would have been exchanged and a couple beers.
9. After a 15 hour shift, its later in the night, she must have gone into autopilot, except for the fact that she parked on the floor above instead of her own.
10. You want justice, I want justice, we all want justice. He is never coming back and nothing can replace that. Executing her or putting her away for life wont bring him back. You tell me, what will bring justice?
@@bmo5082
Damn you people are truly twisted.....
Wrong apartment or not she still committed a crime. If any other citizen did anything close to that, the wrong apartment excuse would not matter at all. She invaded someone’s property and murdered them. “She gave commands” in someone elses property, with no warrant, where no crime was being committed. No matter how you look at it, she still needs to go to prison.
Dead man tell no tales. She killed this man over personal reasons. Probably got tired of hearing that gospel music.
The Truth tommy?
He said she failed to give police commands. He said he didn't hear her say let me see your hands. This is what happens when you testify against a cop's word.
Basically
Sounds like facts to me
Kinda makes sense I mean she did stay below him she knew she didn't stay on the top floor maybe she had had enough coming home on a bad pissy day she wanted to relax and probably heard music she got inside her car drove it to the top floor parked it went to Bothmen apartment not sure why his door would have been opened seen him sitting on sofa enjoying himself some ice cream while listening to music and shot him twice....
And I believe that Joshua Brown knew more but held some stuff out because he feared for his life so he kept his testimony at an minimal...however it's very sad and upsetting that he to is murdered by allegedly 3 gangster's looking to score some narcotics.....same gangster's Joshua Brown shot in the chest these gangster's shoots him and takes Joshua Brown gun with them...but okay
This case has cover up and crooked all around it
DPD is a joke
If she shouted commands how come the witnesses heard everything but those?? She lying.
How we know she shouted commands.?
D Jack ...exactly!!! never thought of that.
That is the addition to her story, that he didn't obey her commands. I have never heard a cop give commands that were not shouted, especially when they have a gun out. The whole changing story is very suspicious.
D Jack YESSSS...THIS "ENTITLED" @#$@# IS LYING
And they almost always include, “DO IT NOW!!” with their commands.
72 hours to get her LIES together before making the arrest.
Sharon Boston 72 hours for them to help her scrub her and her families social media off the internet. Wonder what they are hiding?
She must have been some kind of high not to notice being on the wrong floor and apartment.
They may have had a personal relationship that went bad. Two single people, close in age living in the same building..........
Sharon Boston
Right, and still can't get it together. I think if she just tells the truth she would feel better. She is letting the dept tell her what to say and making it worse for her. I can not understand why cops feel they are above the law and nothing can happen to them. It seems as though they forget they are human first before they went tyrannical.
@Jonathon Derenzo Well said.
Her story is missing something like the TRUTH!!!
Lol good one
Lol i love u for that comment mama but hey black power
WHAT MURDERER DO YOU KNOW OF THAT IS ALLOWED TO SIT ON 'ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE' ------ PAID VACATION FOR MURDERING SOMEONE!!!!!!
What a wonderful country we live in when you get rewarded with a paid vacation for murdering somebody
Cops
And they are still referring to her as officer.
The ones that have a badge.
ANY AND ALL WHITE PERSON(S)
"Let me in"...three little words that completely contradicts her testimony.
I pray those witnesses come out and are not intimidated by the police.
" He's a Kenyan.." 3 little words that started a new round of hatred in America.
He's a Haitian
My bad...I was talking about the hatred embodied for our 44th Prez. Have you noticed how much hatred of black people is out in the open since Obama left.. ( they called Him the Kenyan..)...? Trump was able to send the racist pig Sessions into the highest LEO office in America because the level of hatred for Obama was set free in the months after his inauguration. All that pent up rage and fear from the dumbest,most brutal forces in our country. Literally,they called Obama ( my president..) and his family the worst names imaginable,so when they had a chance to destroy his legacy,they voted for absolute worst impulses of humanity in the form of an insane racist reality TV star. They installed an authoritarian criminal who they wanted to destroy Obama right down to his very being,they don't care what happens to the flag,the constitution,refugee families,global warming,dead unarmed teen agers,homeowners that live one floor up....This whacko cop is another symptom of a militarized torch and pitchfork mob designed to restore white power. The people like Sessions are there to arm the local constabulary as a crowd control device. Look at who showed up in Ferguson..the National Guard.They weren't handing out coffee and donuts,but that will be the picture that comes out of a rich white guy subdivision when the Hurricane hits,right?
He is from the beautiful island Saint Lucia west indies.
lock that door, you never know when the police might be out there.
ace frehley those doors lock automatically
His door wasn't open, that's the lie she told to hide the fact that she had a black man as her lover, he let her in because he knew her. She killed him out of rage & jealousy.
I get what your saying. Pathetic isn't it. Frightening to think getting pulled over is one thing but, to be confronted in what should be the safe haven of your home that an officer could end your life and come on with some BS story to walk??? God help us....
Right!!!!!
🎸ACE!! 🎸
Even the smell of your apartment is different from your neighbors.
Mrs. E #FACTS
IF IT WAS HER APARTMENT....WHY WOULD SHE...KNOCK???
WHY WOULD SHE SAY....LET ME IN...LET ME IN????
WHY KNOCK...IF THE DOOR WAS ...AJAR...AS SHE SAID???
those are just witness testimony.....you do know witness testimonies are not all accurate, real, true.....no-one of the other witness's heard any of that....we all hear diff. things at diff. times etc etc
The truth will come out, something is not right with her story.....
John Chucky Tomlinson , totally agrees with you
Like my Momma used to say #RIP... if it don't come out in the wash it'll come out in the rinse!
Shes guilty and the police is trying to make it seem its an accident. She made noise complaints against him and neighbors claim they heard her knocking on his door.
Lies eventually come to light
Shes a murderer
@@TheLovelySheri yes indeed!!
IKR, she must have been tweaking.
Dallas the nation is not going away. This cop is a killer. No excuses. Justice must prevail.
David Ellis yes it must prevail
They're all killers, the police are the biggest SCUMBAGS in our society
her lies makes her also a psychopath.
They are going to let her hang. She's a white woman. White men don't respect white women. Black people had the right to vote before white women.
They still tried covering it up!!! Without realizing what the neighbors heard. Where's all the ppl who said that they DIDN'T know each other at NOW
The saddest part about Botham’s death is he was an amazing man on this earth. I hope to one day have a son with a spirit as pure as Botham Jean. His future was extremely promising. May he Rest in Heaven.
A police officer who is charged with upholding the law but can't figure out where she lives... that is her defense?...this is America
The absurdity in such a "defense" is beyond comprehension.
I just saw the news this morning. Apparently, there are two sisters who witnessed some of the events. They stated, " We heard the officer banging on his door yelling let me in!" This case will be high profile for the Dallas Police Department. The officer look like a crackhead on her mugshot! Just saying...
Obvious cover up.
Not a cover up. I gave this intruder verbal commands. You see when you do not react to police officer verbal commands, you already are violating some law - Once someone violates the commands, they have to be shot. Ok - I want my paid vacation.
Lmbo! I was thinking meth head but crackhead works.
I agree
I totally agree, I'm willing to bet my whole check she was on something (she does look high on something )
Who goes in a house and not turn on lights
Billy Holmes,
Yeah, I know right!
FA REAL AND YOU THOUGH IT WAS YOURS
Billy Holmes exactly most people always leave a light on at the entry way when they are away from home or at home she liar
more importantly who goes one entire floor pass their own floor and ignores the all the signs indicating its the fourth floor.
Vampires...
If there were no lights on how did she see a shadow? There is no excuse at all.
Apparsntly thd tv was on and the guy was in his boxers and tank top the whole story is bs she straight up murdered this man
I've read in several UA-cam comments surrounding this story that Amber previously made several noise complaints against Bolton Jean. He liked to sing church music. His apartment is directly above hers. It's ironic that she somehow conveniently killed this man during the time she made these complaints. I wonder why the news is not reporting this. The source came from residents that live in the complex.
If she made complaints she must of been to his apartment many times before and seen him before
@42 jade BOTHAM. Thank you.
LaQuinta Blaylock. The devil hates God's anointed
Unless sleeping in bed with your apartment door open is the normal thing in Dallas , the entire story spells fake and troubling
Only if you like playing Russian roulette with your life.
So what do you believe happened?
@Lisa Harris: so...what does WallaceOMG 123 pointing out that her story doesn't' make sense have to do with Narcissistic Personality Disorder? Or do you just not like what he is saying and wish to silence him?
FUCC OUTTA HERE AMBER GUYGER.
Her story changed so many times so far I believe that she killed him intentionally
Of course she did but she can't admit that.
Exactly! Even a speeding ticket would have been on the news. They have nothing to demonize this man with. College grad, accountant, youth pastor, sings in a choir. What a terrible loss.
@@spencerm2078 for real 😞
Spencer M They had nothing to demonize Philando Castile with either. Officer walked. Justice denied.
Until they found a small amount of weed in his apartment after searching his apartment and announced it the day of his funeral.
Dead at 26 years old man this makes me angry !
Giving commands and wearing a uniform doesn't excuse negligence.
Evidence shows she had filed several "Noise Complaints. Why would Botham be in the dark in his own place? Was he in his night clothes was he Sleep? at 10:00pm? this man was a quite important person in his country. This will not go over easy. This is the second person she killed in 4 years One Hispanic. They keep calling her a Veteran Police Officer. 4 years is not a veteran!
WE ARE JUDAH!
I guess killing people makes her a veteran..
WE IZZ DA ISRAELITEZ.. My god you are a literal meme
chas oneal "It's been proven time and again." Thank you for agreeing with me.
First, you're telling me that this officer doesn't know how to read numbers. Secondly, she didn't recognize that there's a red door mat at his apartment and not hers?
The door numbers aren't prominently display on the doors. Quit convicting someone with conjecture before she has had her day in court. If you can't do that. Move to North Korea.
@@RespiratoryDrive-vy9ih She is in an elite crime unit of 10. There is no reason for her not to recognize that she was @ the wrong apartment. Her life and her team's life depends on paying attention to detail.
@RESPIRATORY, UM WELL PREY TELL WHY SHE COULDNT SEE THE BRIGHT RED RUG WHILE SHE LOOKING DOWN TRYING TO UNLOCK THE DOOR
Respiratory Drive *You're wrong* . This is not a court of law- this is youtube comments. She will not be sent to prison based on these comments...Now, we most certainly ARE allowed, and capable, of evaluating the information we are being told about this case. To this point- *absolutely nothing the officer has said makes any damn sense* . Please name ONE THING she said which sounds reasonable and plausible to you. Name it. Go...
@@RespiratoryDrive-vy9ih awwwww, here comes CAPTAIN SAVE 'EM y'all! 🤦😂😂
"THERE IS MORE TO THIS, THAN IS BEING TOLD! "
Mr. Bothams mother said in a 14 minute interview posted on UA-cam that her son seemed worried and told her that someone who lived directly below him had complained about noises coming from his apartment and he told his mother that it wasnt him who was making the noise. Officer Guyner was the person living directly below Mr. Bothams apartment and she was the person who eventually murdered Mr. Botham.
And Joshua Brown testified that the rental office came and knocked on both of their doors that same day asking about some noise.....SMH
How in the world do you not know your own apartment if the numbers of it is beside the front door. No excuses for that.
What person walks into a dark room when front the door was open and doesn't cut on a light?
Exactly! Her story has more holes than Swiss cheese.
Philly eagles,
You nailed it! That's the first thing a person does because the light is right there so that you don't have to walk into a dark apt or house. She is using the excuse the apt was dark as pretext for the shooting.
@@devcarter1654 no she is trying to tell the future white people on the jury I saw a large figure and I was afraid of the big black man and that's why I shot.
Derrick Barnett,
I think we are saying the same thing in terms of reason why she shot the person. But the only thing, though, how did she know he was black if it was dark and she could only see a silhouette of the person.
Derrick Barnett,
I think we agree the lies don't add up. How blatant can she be to shoot him in his own damn apt and then try to fault him for not following an order. Was she making an arrest? No. Did she have a search warrant? No. Unbelievable!
In the midst of all the questions, she needs to explain "why" she shot him. There is, normally, a light switch next to the door into an apartment. Did she attempt to turn the lights on?? Images of the apartment showed a bowl of cereal on the table. Was he eating his Fruit Loops in the dark?? Again; "why" did she shoot him?? I can't imagine she shot in self defense. He didn't shoot at her. So, it's not justified. But, it seems as though that's what cops do, today. They shoot at the slightest provocation. I remember when it was fairly rare for a cop to shoot a citizen. Some say they never even drew their weapons throughout their entire careers. She must not be a good cop, to make such a terrible "mistake". She didn't take notice of the red doormat?? Why, Why, why did she shoot him??
Cant wait for them to blame it on her medications and fearing for her life
The lack of sleep and long hours. Or the drinks she had before she sent home
Wow and her 911 call that they just released has her saying “I’m tired how did I get this wrong” setting it up 🧐
She said she put her bags down. When she did, she didn't see the red rug?
Arnold Sanders: Exactly! And when she put these bags down, the door was suppose to be ajar, the room was dark but she got off two shots that hit him center chest and then she turns on the lights. She must have bionic eyes!
I'm with you about the red rug....does she have a red rug in front of her door as well?
RJ Laster: She says that the door was ajar, slightly open, so there should be no need for a key then.
RJ Laster - no, apparently botham is the only one to have that circular welcome mat. That's why she should have noticed
arnold sanders: That's a lie.....as bright as that hallway walls are leading to his door, that bright red rug sticks out like a ink spot on a white shirt. Coming down the hall the first thing you will notice is that rug outside his door. She knows she doesn't have a red rug outside her door. Long before she sat anything down, walking towards the door says that red rug would tell anyone that's not their door unless they have a red rug too.
She's a cop, they will find an excuse to get an not guilty verdict
She fired her weapon and killed a man ,no way out of this .
They will do their best and they already started. If she gets off there's no hope for this country or black people.
Or a lengthy sentence where she actually only do 2-3 years
remember she is white too
I think that by these acts of police they did not learn after the downtown shooting, unfortunately innocent cops died, I don’t think they wanna go through that again. She better be punished before people really lose they’re minds.
I believe they had a sexual relationship and he ended it and she turned around and ended this young man's life a very sad situation
Allen Gregg omg!! I thought the same thing!!! Because she asked to be let in and when she shot him he said omg, why did you do that? So they we very familiar with each other. And yeah he’s a youth pastor but most times they be getting it on too!
@@bebepatton4491 I agree but the marijuana they found was it the female's was she under the influence when this happened did she really believed that she was going to her apartment 🤔🤔 🤔 so many things we the people have to understand because we as the people weren't there so was the officer on some kind of narcotic so many stories can be told once a soul is not upon this Life anymore so sad SMH
Allen Gregg Yep. She "knew" him. She either had a key or he let her in.
BINGO
Thank you!!! I'm starting to think the same thing... i won't be surprise at all they possibly had relations & it didn't end well
Enough is a enough. Being black in your own home minding your own business and we still not safe! 🤦🏾♂️😤😡
Pull her phone records and his to see if they had contact. She saying she didnt know him. This is so sad and of she walks this will be a riot like no one has ever seen.
Tara Turner + you are so right. Check her computer, iPad her email, gmail . She’s a lying 🐀.
@@wildwildwest1662 yes the JEAN family attorneys should do this asap
I'll bet you anything that her social media accounts have been scrubbed clean to justify her narrative of her BS story.
She wasn’t arrested until DAYS later. She had a ton of time to clean up her loose ends.
Tara Turner You are sooo very right!! It’s going to be ugly!!!
Homing While Black
Right! Messed up.
Can't even do that
Living while black.
We all know we can't live while black
@CLOROX BLEACH lol. Reminds me of a everybody hates Chris episode.
It breaks my heart seeing the pain in his mother's face
and the light in this young man's eyes.
Amber Guyger said “I’m going to loose my job” 17 times,which I counted on the 911 tape,and when the 911 operator said...”We have help on the way”....Amber Guyger’s response was...”I know,but I’m going to loose my job”..Not..””””I know,but he is dying,please hurry!!!!!!”””””...Or even..””””I’m applying pressure to his gun shot wounds,is there anything else I can do?”””” This is proof she is a evil,heartless murderer.
So she parked on the wrong floor,and not noticing the wrong floor and numbers on the doors,or the red door mat,or the so called open door,which is impossible,but she does,and sees him perfectly in a dark room,and shoots perfectly hitting him center mass....and if that wasn’t enough BullShyte,she gets help to move out,without any investigation,yet they get a warrant for Jean’s apartment?????
Don’t forget about her Pinterest posts,which showed things like being lucky to be dressed in black,which makes her already for a funeral........
Nowhere on that 911 call does the operator tell Amber to put pressure on the wound, or ask if he's breathing, or anything at all useful in terms of a medical emergency. I don't get that
@@pathemeleski It didn't matter at that point. If she killed someone it must've been justified, and whoever was shot deserved it. She deserved all the comforting and support that she needed in her time of distress. The person shot had no matter at all at that point.
Also if the door was ajar as the officer stated, why would she place her key in the door? Nonsense
Antonio Ellis,
Another good point.
Exactly. She could just walk in.
Excellent points!!!!
The girl in BLUE didn't see the RED rug?? You gotta be kidding me! Her lies stink to High Heaven!
If it was her apartment as she is claiming she thought it was...Why did the neighbor hear her knocking on the door saying:"LET ME IN"??? I've lived in an apartment building before,where there is no elevator and I had to walk up two flights of stairs..I never accidently walked up three to the wrong unit...And to top it off knock on what I believe to be my own door and say "LET ME IN"..When I know that I live alone...Something was going on between these two...
Stacey Meadows exactly! plus she already killed another person in cold blood. this isn't her first go-round. she has a bloodlust and is able to get away with it cuz she is a cop.
So sad. He was a beautiful man. My condolences to the family.
Police need to be held to a higher standard.
Right on! most definitely!
absolutely. if professional drivers (ie delivery and 18wheelers) are, why aren't the police?
The whole system need to be changed imo. Most police officers are underpaid and not treated well enough to protect & serve. Resulting the good people not willing to become a street cop and the bad candidates are taking all the spots they can take.
+wzx6x6z6w - Nice sentiment and good luck with that. Thing is with A.I. and robotic technological advances, it is on a mere matter of about 5-10 years before robots will replace the police. Many may argue we got that already (sick joke) but I am sad to say it may even be an improvement with robots, as at least the principle with A.I. is that the robots will not act in emotion. A lot of these cops are not professional and act on their emotions, mainly fear which comes with the job. time after time, they shoot people claiming fear for their personal safety. with these robots the upside is that they should not be like this. Although, there is a massive downside too, depending upon how these robots act and function from programming.
ps if anything, any extra money they would pay towards policing will likely end up put in to these technologies for A.I. law enforcement. Robocop here we come! :/
Wow he was only 26. Rip botham. Theres somthing very fishy about this
Yes, his birthday is later this month. We went to the same primary school in St Lucia, grades 1 to 6. He was never in any trouble, not a bully or anything, always smiling. #justiceforbotham
She’s talking on the phone for help while this beautiful man is in dire need she deserves punishment
There is too little scrutiny of public officials. The public is too quick to give them the benefit of the doubt. Politicians, police officers and members of the clergy are some of the least trustworthy people I've met in my adult life. Lying, cheating and stealing seem to be a prerequisite for these careers.
Are you agreeing or requesting examples ?
Yup
Remember the old adage "Practice Makes Perfect", she practiced shooting a Hispanic man and now she has upgraded her aim and has made it perfect by "MURDERING" a perfectly innocent Black Man...
The saddest part is that she won't be charged or held accountable
she has been charged. With manslaughter.
Eric Casey that's what they say. But she has already posted bond and is out free. Not only that , she is on PAID leave aka vacation.
Megalodon Beatz 💔
I think the main thing Megaodon Beatz was trying to say is that she will somehow not have to serve anytime. There have been several officers and "pretend" officers (Like George Zimmerman) who have been "charged" but nothing still has happened. They either post bail, Or the Jury finds them Not Guilty.
@@ericcasey1699 that aint no real charge 🤦
Was the door ajar if so why was she saying let me in ???
So if I'm in MY HOUSE and some stranger gives me "commands" I'm supposed to listen to you?
Guyger's story is already a mess.
1. If door was locked, why did she not see the red light those locks have indicating it was the wrong door?
2. If it was unlocked, why do witnesses say they heard her banging and saying let me in.
3. If she was saying let me in, why would she then suddenly think the guy is a burglar and "give verbal commands" and shoot him?
and so on and so on.
When you give vastly different accounts of what transpired that is a true indication of guilt.
It certainly is suspicious. Too many changes evolving in this narrative. I am wondering if there are photos as in the first report I read there was supposedly a key still hanging in the lock, now the door was ajar???
That sounds like her lawyer prepared that statement of events for her. Why was she at the wrong apt??? If the door was "ajar, why were you knocking????? Was there a toxicology report????
If the door was ajar, why would she need her key?
If it were her apartment, why was she knocking
Yes they CLAIM they gave her one and found nothing....SMH....I doubt if she had one
Those doors are never ajarred that rent over there is high.
Now the cop is lying. If you didn't know where you were, in the wrong apartment, how YOU given him commands. She was in his apartment. He don't have to comply, she had no authority over him, she was off duty and probably drugged up.
the case is still pending don't make any assumptions
Exactly bro!
I think she was on drugs
Hellasow you literally don't have to comply with a stranger yelling in your apartment in the dark like she stated. It's apparently to dark for her to see anything but light enough for him to see her stupid uniform?
There are too many holes and discrepancies in this story and her story appears to have changed from what was originally told. I have gone to a wrong door in a multi floor apartment, I didn't go up to third but turned on second floor landing. The doormat was the first thing I noticed being out of place and he had a distinctive mat at his door. Then there are neighbors reports. Something aint right here.
to much coincidence of convenience, wrong floor, wrong apartment, but apartment door was open, light was turn off, man in the dark approach. I have a bridge i am selling. so what kind of verbal commands did she give in the dark. He also walking around in his dark apartment nor in his bedroom.
Exactly you really thought this out!!
It's a Russian Troll. Their english is terrible. You can spot them because they do not have the words 'the' and 'a' in their language. Once you see terrible grammar that reads foreign it's a Russian.
@wel1968 You just said you are glad that they keep killing Black people, which means that you realize they are killing Black people without just cause. Which would give validity to the lack of sympathy towards police officers from Black people. You just proved yourself lame in your own comment.
Right...why in the world would he be walking around his apartment in the dark??
Shani Smith lol
Ok wrong apartment - why she didn't notice the furniture was different. I'm almost certain they didn't have the same taste in style and furnishings. Something is not right with this story. Wrong floor and wrong apartment - why was she yelling 'let me in'?
Why did she shoot though even if there was an intruder? He wasn't trying to attack, etc? I guess that's how police deal with problems, they just shoot it solved.
That story has changed 3 times by the officers. There's this thing about a lie, it's hard to remember and it's always CHANGING. There's no logic to none of the police accounts. He didn't lock his door? 🤔🤔🤔 but he was obviously in bed sleep because all he had on was his boxers. Living in an apartment, you tell me how often you do that. 👀☕ #NoLogicNoTruth
The story changed 3 times by neighbors... She said enough to convict herself..
Right, Tosha. And, if his door was unlocked, why was she pounding on it, yelling "let me in, let me in!"?
its called "more information"
But, ultimately the changed story is based on her account of the what happened at the time of the incident versus her account of what happened when they did a detailed interview with her on Saturday, two days after the killing. I believe she changed her story after thinking about it in order to give her the most favorable outcome. I don't believe for a second that the door was ajar. And this is completely different from the initial reports that said that Jean came to the door and opened it (probably as a result of hearing someone at his door and investigating what was going on).
They say she was knocking on doors hollering Let Me In . Sounds like we need to see the toxicology test. Thats the first thing they do to us when we mess up. They give us a breath a lizer.
LET ME IN!!! was what the neighbors claimed to have heard before the 🔫 #RIP #BothamJean 's Neighbors took to Twitter moments after the shooting!! They were saying this on the day after the shooting on Twitter... LET ME IN
How can you not know your own door?
Eventually we will stop waiting for justice and seek it ourselves
She's lying.
It wasn’t even on the same floor as her! There’s no way, she thought it was her apartment! If she had to use an elevator, she would have to pick fourth floor. Walking up 4 flights of stairs vs. 3 flights.....big difference!
YES, EXACTLY! I work on the 3rd floor and always take the stairs. Once I mistakenly walked up to the 4th floor. My leg muscles let me know I'd made a mistake.
Good point...I wonder if they asked her if she took elevator or stairs. If we can all see ALL OF HER DISCREPANCIES then surely a jury will be able to see more than us..I pray. He deserves justice
So apparently, she pushed wrong button on elevator, got off on da wrong floor and went to wrong apt. Thats 3 wrongs resulting to a life lost, 3 strikes your out put her under da jail. She didn't get in da wrong car or drive down a wrong road,
If she was so tired she would've never taken da stairs correct?
she parked on the 4th..
I really don't understand how the State rest their case without bringing forward the witnesses claiming to have heard the knock and her voice saying, "Let me in."
Ive been thinking the same thing
I agree
I fully agree with the verdict nonetheless. And I believe he opened that door and race plays a big part of it.
Walked into the wrong apartment, is the worst excuse, since a dog ate my homework...
Lol
She most likely threatened him over a noise complaint and ended up killing him because she thought she would get away with it.
I think it had to do with a noise complaint too. I think she was tired, got home and heard some music or something and decided to go confront him in her uniform and it got out of hand.
They were lovers, and he ended it.
Tomy Boyle the media did say she complained of noise in the past and she shot a Latino in 2017 🤔
Tomy Boyle I swear this been one of my theories for the last couple of days. Probably a racist white woman to begin with, who complained about him stumping around up there before, then she figured she would wait until she got off work that day, go up there and shoot him, then claim she thought he was in her apartment. She probably figured since she's a cop, she could get away with it.
Tomy Boyle good insight never thought of thAt
Did the drug test result come out; did they find meth in her system?
Scenario: Female cop stops off at victims apartment to deliver noise complaint in person, and in uniform, to intimidate victim. After knocking and "verbal commands" victim opens door and cop barges in. She gives victim third degree about noise. Victim tells cop to leave his premises. Cop becomes infuriated at his lack of intimidation. Victim walks toward her to usher her out of his apartment. Being paranoid of a large black man approaching her and getting "in her space" she did what was trained to do. Shoot first, then lie lie lie.
wwolfdogs yed yes. that's it .i dont believe she was sleepimg with him. her social media was like a prejudice white girl..
@wwolfdogs your story actually makes sense to me. I wonder if the noise complaint was really it. I haven't heard that angle yet. Wow.
When I walk pass my neighbors apartment I know that's not my apartment everything inside is totally different from mines, very very weak lie even sounds like someone told her to keep repeating I THOUGHT I WAS IN MY APARTMENT And they'll believe you
The man had a big bight red doormat outside his door, how could she not have seen that
CRIME OF PASSION
Possible
Maybe.
No. She clipped him due loud music. Reports say she had previously filed complaints with the property manager.
“search warrant” is irrelevant, she was OFF-DUTY. Everything sounds like a lie.
Mama jean , we haven't forgotten! Time want wash this away..we STILL WANT JUSTICE!!
"wrong apartment" is a lie.
Absolutely. She knew exactly where she was.
This makes no sense how do you go to the wrong apt ? You don't know where you live ? BS talk
"Why don't you just do what the police tell you?" -Larry Elder. Well this man didn't do anything wrong and he still got shot. What do you have to say to that Larry?
Larry Elders an Uncle Sam..fuq what he say.
Larry Elder would say : He should have locked his door
Texas Rangers are heading the investigation?......That's game over! They WILL conclude there was no wrong doing.
69. A fatal traffic wreck involving Texas Ranger David Armstrong of Dallas is a good example of the double standards inside DPS. On February 2, 2017, Ranger Armstrong was returning from a special operations shift on the Mexican border when he crashed his DPS vehicle into a pickup truck, ejecting both the driver and the passenger. After several weeks, a DPS Highway Patrol accident reconstruction team was able to recover the vehicle’s computer to confirm his speed at the time of the crash. He was driving 84 miles per hour on Highway 281 in Premont, where the posted speed limit was 45 miles per hour. Ranger Armstrong fractured his hip, and his DPS vehicle burned down to the metal. The passenger of the other vehicle, 30-year-old JD Kristopher Trevino of Premont, died of his injuries five days after the wreck. Even though the accident occurred in Premont city limits, and even though accidents in municipalities are normally investigated by city police, DPS handled the investigation so it could cover up what happened. Among other things, Ranger Armstrong was violating a DPS safety rule at the time of the accident. That rule mandates that officers working on the border take a six-hour rest period before driving home, and the rule had been in effect for more than a year at the time of the accident. Ranger Armstrong had repeatedly violated the rule - a fact known to his supervisors - and he was violating it again when he was driving through Premont at 10:15 p.m. Although most drivers would have been charged with manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, or at least reckless driving, Ranger Armstrong was never charged with anything, nor was he disciplined. Instead, the entire incident was covered up by senior DPS commanders, and Ranger Armstrong is now leading a high-profile investigation into a police shooting in Dallas.
U hit on the head a year ago..good job

mike marcus nike sales went up by 31%, I think nike has a see through ulterior motive that youre ignoring
The family needs to document those witness statements via video asap before they change or disappear.
4 years later we can see that they absolutely disappeared for the most part, so did the witnesses.
After working an exhausting shift, Amber probably entered her apartment hearing noise ( like music ) coming from upstairs. This officer immediately went upstairs to confront Botham. She knocks on his door but he wouldn't open. She got angry, banged on the door until he opened then she shot him. She may have initially gone near his door just to listen for music, before going to her own apartment, ending with the same scenario. It's also interesting how she would park on the 4th floor instead of the 3rd.
RIGHT I BEEN SAYING THIS ALL DAY HE LOVE TO SING AND HE WAS A YOUTH PASTOR SO IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN CHURCH MUSIC SHE LIVED UNDER HIM AND MIGHT HAVE WENT UP THERE A FEW TIMES TO TELL HIM TO TURN IT OFF NOT DOWN OFF AND HE DIDN'T SO SHE KILLED HIM I'M JUST SAYING CAUSE I DON'T THINK HE LIKE THAT UGLY WOMAN PLUS HIS TYPE OF WOMAN WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN HER
Makes sense to me💯👍
Where is this witness?!!!!
Damn right a lot of questions remain there!!!!
WE DEMAND JUSTICE

I think they were fukn
Just read “She was charged with manslaughter and turned herself in Sunday night to the Kaufman County Jail. She posted $300,000 bond and was bailed out about an hour later.”
Assuming the witnesses are credible, why would you knock on what you thought was your own door? Why would you need to knock on a door that's open ? Why would you say "let me in?"
They have already proven that the door being ajar was a lie. Multiple stations have shown footage at his apartment. Once you let go of the handle, the door slams shut automatically because it is a heavy metal fire door. ALL of the doors in the complex slam shut. It doesn't natter how you let go of the handle, it slams shut Every time and locks.
The family had a red doormat, she could see it already to this bc she dont have a doormat AND there was light enough to see this. A burglar who add stuff to your apartment LOL
Police are normally trained to be observant but unfortunately Affirmative Action is the law of the land.
I think it should be more realistic that she should shout "police here!" when she entered the apartment instead of "let me in" according of two witnesses.
christopher burleigh nice excuse
A decorating burglar
It would not be surprising to find out she is the type of person who is a drunkard. Police are the sort of people who would lie about her intoxication results. Hence, not seeing an obvious doormat.
Well my people,there's a lot more not being told,by family or the cops
Another example of police earning their hate...and another example of why Micah Xavier Johnson is a hero R.I.P.
She wanted "pipe" , but he said no..
Alex Kaneh Somebody gotta tell you this is not the time to joke ...Really??!!!?
Just check her phone records. If she had a relationship with this guy, the phone will prove it.
Chocolate Kyle kulinski or the camera. There’s a black surveillance camera in the hallway
Yes it's possible that they could have been in a relationship but this guy was also an accountant with a very prestigious firm so that means he knows how to handle money and these two could have been involved in some scheme or criminal activity and she was dealing with him about it just speculation but I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case
T. Alexander lol..you have a vivid imagination son!
@@t.alexander5412 why are you trying to make it some conspiracy? Ir was a tragic accident. Period. If he was white no one would care.
Is it a case Of unrequited love?
THIS WAS A HIT!
This man chilling and minding his own business in his own home and still gets shot and killed. Something just ain't right there. There's no safe place for us anymore.
CBS your reporter gave an incorrect report. It says that she entered the room after she shot the man and then turned on the lights, it WASN"T UNTIL THE DISPATCH ASKED HER LOCATION THAT SHE WENT BACK TO THE DOOR AND THEN SHE REALIZED SHE WAS IN THE WRONG APARTMENT. Stop trying to persuade people that this woman's story could have happened to anyone. When she turned on the lights that is when she would have noticed that she was in the wrong apartment, BUT SHE DIDN'T She concocted that lie with the help of law enforcement.
Exactly... repost this again up top
BasicTruth1109,
Since she thought she was in her apt why would she need to check the number on the door. She would have automatically given her apt number.
They keep saying that because the affidavit incriminates her
@@devcarter1654 thanks for saying that overlooked truth. If she thought she was in her apartment why didn't she give her apartment number?
She made numerous complaints about noise to management, they says he would play religious music in his apartment and she didn't like it. So she went to his apartment, in her uniform and shot him because she thought she would get away with it. Oh I saw large black man in my apartment and was afraid for my life. Sound familiar!!!! GTFOH cold blooded killer.
Just another example added to the list of why these people are called "White Devils". Gunned down an innocent, god fearing Christian man in his own apartment. SMH. Rest in peace Botham Jean you didn't deserve that bro.
No actually were called by white devils because you guys don't have an actual insult that works. Oh and just as a warning I actually introduce myself as " The White Devil " whenever I have to speak another language to talk to somebody so it's never really been an insult.
Sounds like an assasination
I GET THE FEELING THEY WAS LOVERS...AND THE MISSING TEXT MESSAGES WAS TO THE VICTIM...
Well, according to testimony you are not correct
The missing messages were sexual to her MARRIED partner!
That's why they deleted them.....
She is NOT a good person even before this shooting sex texting a married man! 😱😱😱
@@littlemonsterpants WHAT MAKES MURDERER S TESTIMONY CORRECT AND IF I WAS IN HER POSITION I WOULD GO WITH EVERYONE THINKING MY TEXTS WERE TOO EXPLICIT FOR COURT AS WELL WHEN THE TRUTH COULD BE THESE TEXT EXPLAINS MOTIVE OF A MURDERING LOVER???
@@tattgamemartell9852 But they "recovered" the deleted text & they were to her married partner so I don't understand you saying they were to the victim...they have the texts now & one said "wanna touch?" to her MARRIED partner!
Where do you get your information?
If you have proof of what you're saying please get it to the court right away to let them know the texts they recovered are incorrect
@@littlemonsterpants SHE IS ONE OF THEM SO RECOVERING THE TEXT COULD BE WHAT THEY WANT IT TO BE...POLICE PROTECT THEIR OWN...MY POINT IS WHY DELETE EVIDENCE AS AN OFFICER OF THE LAW WHEN DOING SO IS TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE...ALL IN ALL ITS DAMAGED INFO...THERE IS A THANG IN LAW CALLED PROPER PROCEDURE AND POLICY
