I value his life very much. I believe this young man would have gone on to do many wonderful things, much more than AG would have done with her life. I feel that she is a troubled young woman, whether she murdered anyone or not.
Re: btfly547's post above, I didn't realize that she stated that she was a racist??
Are you sure? I thought that I heard on the news that the reporter said that she would not be eligible for parole. I took that to mean early release.

I kept hearing that too but now this is what everyone is saying...not sure why it is not more clear. I would feel better if it was a solid 10 years.Are you sure? I thought that I heard on the news that the reporter said that she would not be eligible for parole. I took that to mean early release.
Mr. Jean encountered a person who thinks like this (see below). Whether or not she killed him because of his color, she certainly had a disregard for some of her brothers in blue and others who were not in her circle and that is dangerous.
From CNN, just so I have the texts right (Guyger's offensive text messages are introduced at her sentencing - CNN):
In one chain of text messages between Guyger and others, they lamented having to work the Martin Luther King Jr. Day Parade in January 2015.
A person in the chain asked of the parade, "When does this end lol."
Guyger replied, "When MLK is dead...oh wait..."
In a March 9, 2018, exchange of text messages with a married officer and her former police partner, Martin Rivera, with whom Guyger was having a sexual relationship, she mocked black officers.
"Damn I was at this area with 5 different black officers !!! Not racists but damn," Rivera wrote.
"Not racist but just have a different way of working and it shows," Guyger replied.
I agree, and I wonder why some posters are still trying to stir the hate up. It's over...finished. move on to a case that deserves all this vitriol.
The Freedom From Religion Foundation on Thursday filed a complaint against Kemp with the Texas state agency that investigates allegations of judicial misconduct.
The Wisconsin-based group said Kemp went too far after Guyger was sentenced to 10 years in prison. Guyger was convicted of fatally shooting her neighbor, Botham Jean, in his apartment.
Kemp has also been criticized by activists who wondered whether a black defendant would get the same treatment.
Kemp's Hug Not Embraced by All After Guyger's Trial
A couple of bad eggs doesn't make the entire police force bad. I do think that AG's behavior shows that she wasn't remorseful in the least. I can't believe that she actually was sexting her married partner a few days after she murdered a guy.I hope we can agree that we do have a serious policing issue in Dallas. As the Police Chief called her force some of the best and brightest, we have this from one of her officers, who apparently was willing to delete messages that were not important to him when as an officer he should have known this material was recoverable and possibly key in a case:
At trial, prosecutors said that even after Guyger killed Jean, she found time to text Rivera and sent sexual messages to him days later.
Rivera testified he deleted the texts between him and Guyger from the night of the shooting,
"That's not something that I would want to be reminded of," Rivera said. "And I don't keep messages saved unless it's of an importance to me." Guyger's offensive text messages are introduced at her sentencing - CNN
I previously posted this; however, I will post again. Although I feel that her texts were in bad taste, I don't think that she said them to be racist. I think that she is immature and lacking judgment. They also prove that she shouldn't be in uniform.

I think that it shows how narcissistic she truly is, IMO. How in the heck would a normal person even be thinking of doing something like this after such a tragic event? Did her partner respond in kind? Surely not. If I were in his position, I would have blocked her number.
Will Martin Rivera face any formal reprimand for having an affair on the job? Surely, there must be some kind of company policy against what they did. I wonder what is going on in his household...
A lot of us do the jury though ....sigh.
