    OK, then. That was just one explanation. It still doesn't dispell the idea that people sometimes leave their doors unlocked at night.


    Then I would suggest we wait until mkre evidence is gathered before you dismiss or claim anything.


    You obviously do. You're responding to me.


    Again, people miss things when they assume. If I thought it was my apartment, why would I pay attention to the couch next to the wall or the TV? If it's my apartment (presumably) then I'd be focused on what's ahead of me and what's in the center of the room, which presumably would be the homeowner.


    How nice.

    You tell me Sherlock Holmes. Has anyone interviewed the witnesses who claim to have heard her banging on his door.


    The young man is dead and for what? Oh she thought it was her apartment.

    So you're claiming when she aimed and shot at him in his own home she didn't intend to kill him? What did she intend to do to him by aiming and shooting at him if not kill him?

    Because an innocent man is dead because somebody killed him for no reason.

    Yea happens all the time folks living in a apartment leave their doors open. The door closes automatically.

    What evidence would that be.

    Is that what it is.

    Everyone has a routine when they get home, check mail, grab a beer, go to the bathroom, etc. You know how your home smells and looks even if it is dark. Common sense ****.

    I guess it's just that mentality.

    Then that would be manslaughter. Why is it so important to you it be labeled as a murder?

    No you tell me Shaft it's your claim it was murder, what was her motive to intentionally and criminally enter his apartment to kill him? That's what you will have to prove in court if you are going to try her for murder.

    Which doesn't prove it locks automatically either but you are saying it is impossible for an automatic door to not fully close that in all the history of automatically closing doors every one of them every time has fully closed?

    So you trust the cop lovers to produce facts that will convict their fellow killer thug cop? That is too funny.

    Will they show the signage from the garage that indicates the floor?

    Will they produce any statements she made while a cop to show that she hated black people?

    Will they produce evidence that she hated the victim?

    The list goes on.

    The DA will simply show up in court and let the thug cop off without any attempt whatsoever to convict her of first degree murder. That is the way it will be because they are part of a corrupt system.

    Her motive was that the reality of a black guy living directly over her made her very angry so she decided to kill him. It is that simple.

    Hell will freeze over before the cop lovers will admit that the bitch deliberately went to the guy's apartment to kill him.

    To employ reasonable force in her own home. That was her intent.
    She was incorrect in some base facts, making the use of force unreasonable.


    You didnt read the cases I cited did you?

    She was obviously incorrect, hence why manslaughter will stick.
    But you dont have any evidence, so far, to show she murdered him with a vicious will

    Apparently a lynch mob is preferable to you than having a fair trial.

    She did not employ reasonable force in her own home. It's wasn't her home. What does vicious will have to do with anything? The requisite for murder is intent and she most definitely intended to shoot Jean when she drew her gun, aimed and shot at him. The DA has already said an upgrade in charges is a possibility as it should be.

    I'm not saying it happens all the time. I'm saying that some people do leave their doors unlocked. As for the door closing automatically, what evidence that this apartment has automatic closing doors? Even if it did, that is still not a guarantee that it was closed. It could've been propped open to let air in (which would explain why the door was open in the first place) or it could be that the locking mechanism is faulty and won't close all the way. I work at a campus where the doors are supposed to lock in place but there are some doors that need help locking.


    Whatever evidence the Texas Rangers and other investigation teams find.


    I don't know how my house smell. That's not something I take notice of. Even if I do notice stuff like that when I get home, if I all of a sudden smelled something different, I would go inside and investigate. I know it's my house because of the physical features about and around the house. With this case about the apartment, IIRC the officer moved in recently. As for a routine, yes, you're correct, however, we don't know what her routine is. For all we know her routine is to dump her bag at the side of the door and go straight to the kitchen. Whatever was her routine was interrupted by the fact she thought she was dealing with a burglar. So noticing stuff like the smell of the home becomes a side issue.

    source it
    You assume a heck of a lot. In no way one bit is that derived from her story.
    Mind you, she was given 3 days to come up with a bogus story.
    And it is.. it was too dark to see. And heck no it was not. She lies. It's exceptionally clear.

    There is even a witnesses now that claim she knocked on the door to be let in.

    What you first do when you get home, is look inside your apartment... before you switch it. It's impossible not to,... unless your blind of got a disturbed habit of having your eyes closed when entering your apartment. And with the lights on in the hallway that bright, it is simply impossible to miss that it aint your apartment when you look inside. And so her idea that it was too dark to see,... is bullcrap.

    Simple fact that cops massacre black people around in far greater numbers compared to the % of the ethnic make up of the US.
    And it all fits how black people are treated worse in the US justice department at every turn.

    I can not help it. It's nothing to do with "liberals"... it's a bunch of nazi's who got a problem with it.
