The Dallas police officer who killed 26-year-old Botham Jean in his own apartment got inside because the door wasn’t locked, a law enforcement official said Sunday.
Officer Amber Guyger had just ended a 15-hour shift when she parked on the wrong level of the South Side Flats garage— the fourth floor instead of the third, where she lived, according to the official who has direct knowledge of the case but is not authorized to discuss it publicly.
Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings also said Sunday that Guyger parked on the wrong floor.
She went to the door she thought was hers but was one floor too high. The four floors of the South Side Flats in the Cedars look the same, with concrete floors and tan doors. A light fixture to the side of each door displays the apartment number.
Guyger, 30, was arrested Sunday on a manslaughter charge and was booked into the Kaufman County Jail. The Texas Rangers are investigating the case at the request of Dallas Police Chief U. Renee Hall. In the last year, juries have sentenced two police officers in Dallas County to prison time after convicting them of murder.
The night of the shooting, Guyger didn’t notice that Jean's door had a red doormat in front of it, the official said. Her entrance didn’t have one.

Why would that matter?
And shes a woman so the female lawyer is going to blame everyone and everything else but the woman herself. all they know how to do well is externally shift blame and responsibility.
Pussy pass will be given. Cop pass will be given. Iniquity will be great.
“Why would that matter?”
It wouldn’t. It’s just information.
So she kept a fifth of vodka in her personal car? That would be the only way she had time to drink....
She is an incompetent affirmative action hire, had no business being a cop, and will probably suicide out of this mess.
People prognosticate all day long on FR. Maybe you’re on the wrong site if that bothers you.
She had just gotten off a 12 hour over time shift.
Lock your doors.
****************
It wasn’t her door but it was locked. She was on the wrong floor
wrong door. The occupant open the door to see what was happening and
she shot him.

There is a great deal we don’t know yet about this case. However, extreme fatigue can make one hallucinate, and can certainly otherwise impair one at least as much as several alcoholic drinks, so, that is a possibility.
I would note that in some of the pics on the web of Officer Guyger, she is in civilian clothes w/ with kids. Hers? Maybe she was literally trying to “do too much”? (Almost all of us fall prey to that, on occasion, esp. if we have kids, BUT, we don’t regularly go about armed while exhausted - at least I hope not!!! )
If DPD has fatigue impaired armed officers working out on the street, they are gonna be open to lawsuits...
Needless to say the slaughter of a White elderly man and his wife in North Carolina, Gary and Jackie Skelton, by 3 negroes won't get much play.
I wish someone prominent (DJT?) would just come out and tell the truth about interracial violence.
I prefer not to.
She looks wasted in her mug shot (tired eyes w/big dark circles), but extreme fatigue rather than drugs could cause the same appearance I suppose.
Manslaughter? If a citizen did the same the charge would be murder.
You’ve got your wish.
His family has lawyered up with the Trayvon Martin attorneys. You’ll have the trial you have been braying for.
Good for you to maintain sobriety!
Stay strong and healthy.
This is a decision you make every day.
You would think the guy said something through the door or locked through a window like ‘ who are you’? ‘What do you want?’ Etc....
There was a chain of events leading up to the shooting. This was/isn't a accident.
So much of the initial story makes little sense.
Spin machines are cranked up to 11 now, so posting here with this quote or that quote are useless without sourcing.
FTR, I happen to think the two knew each other before. Whether this unhappy incident rises to the level of premeditated murder is not ours to decide. The Texas Rangers have this one.
I think they’ll figure this one out.
I like to see justice done. She killed an unarmed innocent man in his own home. I think that is murder.
