This is really F&$Ked up! Shouldn't the furniture gave it away? I predict she goes to jail.

I say she goes to jail. It is her fault for walking into the wrong apartment. Wouldn't the furniture give it away?

I'll put $20 on criminally negligent manslaughter.

There's more to this story than is being reported. Way too many issues with her story to be believed.

Does she keep her job?

Does she keep her job?

She's currently on paid vacation, and they have yet to actually interview her about the events.

I should have quoted JH Smith as I was asking him if he thought that she would be fired or not.....but damn,one would think that she would be called in to at least give a statement by now.

I saw but didn't read a headline that said she's been charged with Manslaughter.

DALLAS (AP) — A white Dallas police officer who shot and killed her black neighbor and later explained that she had mistaken his apartment for her own will be charged with manslaughter, the police chief said Friday.

It's not clear what the officer may have said to 26-year-old Botham Jean between entering his home and shooting him late Thursday, police Chief U. Renee Hall said during a news conference. But given what investigators currently know about the case, they decided to pursue a manslaughter charge, she said.

Interesting comment there:

I’m a Dallas local. From this guys neighbors in the apartment complex, she shot him in the head when he opened the door after her key didn’t work in the lock and the code didn’t work. Her apartment was on a different floor. This complex being so close to the main station, and gated, also has a TON of Dallas PD who also live there.

I’ll put $20 illegal discharge of a firearm within city limits
