how many included quotes from anyone who wasn't law enforcement? Or who represented the victim?
I've spent the past 5 hours reading over 150 articles about the murder of Botham Jean by the Dallas Police. 93% of the articles present the ever-changing stories of Officer Amber Guyger as fact without even giving a footnote that she has every reason to lie.

This one included quotes from his neighbor explaining the layout of the hallway. http://www.watertowndailytimes.com/national/dallas-officer-charged-with-manslaughter-after-killing-neighbor-she-mistook-for-intruder-20180910&template=mwdt …pic.twitter.com/1YarutOnm1

I mentioned this b/c it is a typical response for the press to have official reports dominate to the exclusion of the family, witnesses, etc.
-
I agree. I had to read several before I found this statement, which gives me more questions than answers and further highlights inconsistencies.
-
Plus, with very little detail included, this story mentions noise complaints against
#BothamShemJean that came from a downstairs neighbor. I would love to know more about THOSE. -
Very bizarre story all the way around...Just hope the real truth comes out and for once some accountability takes place
-
One can hope, but I fear they're already laying the groundwork for something quite different. - 3 more replies

The fact that she changed her story should be a footnote in itself. waiting for her to say he had a weapon that she couldn't see if she couldn't see the bright red rug that wasn't hers, the apartment number, or inside the apartment since the light was out.

But at first it was that she was at the door and her Card Key didn't work. She's lying with the assistance of the Rangers, The Dallas Police Chief and the Dallas DA. The Media is pushing the lies instead of Challenging the Lies.

Exactly. We're not falling for the nonsense.

She thought the badge was going to save her. This was murder. No one is that stupid.

Hopefully they prosecute her with the same ferocity they would a cop killer but, I doubt it. Plus I expect a sleeper cell like in Manafort's trial who is only there to acquit. I expect a hung jury but, hope for justice to be served.

Intimidated witnesses, a terrible prosecutor, all white jury and finally Demonize the Victim. That's what we can expect to see.

Plus the lack of incredulity over the searches of Botham Jean’s apartment to find a ‘reason’ for her crime.

They searched HIS apartment?????

Even when an officer walks in to an innocent unarmed Black man's home and murders him the media will still try to shield them. Over the years we've listed many things you can't do while being Black... now sadly we have to add being in your own home.

Amen Girl. You know the witnesses are going to be harassed, threatened, and intimidated by the Police. They're more dogmatic than actual gang members.
