I fully agree that there arent any winners here. It was a horrific incident where an innocent man in his own apartment was killed. And I wont deny that Guyger made errors, errors which were made by many other residents in the apartment complex. But she was not INTENDING to shoot an innocent man in his own apartment. Does anyone think that she thought she would get away with such an irrational scheme? And was there some kind of moment of passion that caused this, other than alarm at an erroneous realization?
And I agree, manslaughter, or even less, criminally negligent homicide, would have been a more appropriate charge. Thats why the murder conviction is so over-the-top and will likely be overturned on appeal.
Im predicting that the BLM mob will still riot and cause civil unrest; in celebration.
Twisting words. She did INTEND to shoot who she thought was a burglar in her apartment.
Bullet trajectory revealed he was shot while getting up from the couch or while cowering away from her.
She shot before ascertaining the situation.
The jury was free to choose to convict on manslaughter or murder. They chose murder. On what grounds can this be appealed?
