TX - Former Dallas Police Officer Amber Guyger, indicted for Murder of Botham Shem Jean #5

I don’t see how her taking the stand is helping her at all. She noticed the door was ajar first. Okay. The state is going to eat this girl alive.

A neighbor testified to hearing yelling from both before the shots were fired but couldn't make out what was being said. How are you gonna say no one heard anything?

At least 3 neighbors testified to that. One said it sounded like 2 people talking at the same time, then shots.

None of them heard her give commands.

Lol I feel you. The defense did the states job because she is really messing this up and this is why most don’t want you to take the stand at all.

Started doing compressions with my left hand? Where in ANY training is that? FFS

Do not believe that for a second. THAT was a hail mary on her part.

BBM: So IF she did compressions with her left hand, then wouldn't she have blood on her and/or her uniform since she just shot Mr. Botham ? He is bleeding when she shot him.

The experts testified yesterday that she had NO blood on her uniform.

Thoughts ??

"I just wanted someone there with me" - that was her thinking. Still, no regard for the victim.

I hope state is merciless with her!!

I thought she said she could not tell where he was shot at when she was testifying but on the 911 call she said (I think) that she shot him in the upper left?

Her lawyer is not doing her any favors either, he's doing a bad job here so far IMO.

It makes zero sense though that they can say they heard yelling but not what was being said and at the same time say they heard no commands. If you couldn't make out what was being said, how can they know the yelling wasn't commands? What was being said very well could've been what she says. IMO

That's the whole impetus for this crime. To be a victim and get Rivera's attention.

I'm glad she testified. She is not relatable at all. Her story also isn't making sense.

No Amber, the scariest thing imaginable is not being alone with the man you just shot. The scariest thing is being shot, for no reason, and not being able to breathe, realizing you are dying.

Maybe I'm mis-remembering the testimony. I thought the witness was talking about hearing shouting from the arriving police officers at the scene.

You nailed it @Longtime_lurker2019

 

[Wishbone]

Her focus was on him..more lies

 

[Rocco]

Yes and then she shot him immediately!

And she even said she couldn't clearly see him--just a silhouette. She didn't know if he put his hands up or not. She just shot him.

 

[Betty P]

She just now suddenly started crying, saying she was scared, I think they had been asking her about her job, whether she liked being a police officer.

 

[iluvmua]

Did anybody not open their door and see what was going on?

 

[mojook]

What a sociopath. She always talks about how she feels. No empathy at all

 

[sloane7777]

She Texted her partner because "SHE" needed help , UM I'm sorry stupid girl but the man you just shot , who is dying in front of you takes priority over your wants and needs , and sorry "you" have to live with it every day BECAUSE HE Doesn't!
