From the constant reporting in Dallas, it was dark. I guess she saw him. They are trying so hard to make it a race issue. If it was dark in there, how did she even know it was a black man? It sounds like a tragic accident to me. She had only lived there a very short time. The parking garages and doors all look alike. She had just gotten off a 15 hour shift. She was off duty.

One article I read said the lights were off.

Investigators should find out if anybody else who lives there has tried to go into the wrong apartment.

Time for her to be administered a follicle test.

Who wants to listen to a stupid ‘front hole’ who can’t find her own apartment?

I’ve read that it was a 15 hour shift.

that's a long shift, thanks for the info.

what I meant was, how long after her shift ended did the killing occur. I can see how it might be inviting to indulge in adult beverages after a shift.

Good idea. Now we’ve got the protestors out screaming about white cop killing the black victim. She was off duty. It was a horrible accident as far as I can tell by what they are reporting. There is however, no one to dispute what she says happens. Who knows.

...

We can thank Obama, the corrupt media, and the crooked Democrats for that.

It has now been 4 days and still no Blood Draw Results. I’ll wait one more day before I call B.S. AND COVER-UP BY FALSIFYING THE TEST RESULTS!!!

15-12=3

12/2=6

3 hours would be 1/4th or .25 of a Shift

The original report was a 12 hour shift.

I still have not heard Anything about the Blood Draw results on her.

If she is cleared of Drug/Alcohol use via the Blood Draw done I for one will not trust the Chain of Custody on the sample/results. It’s been 3 days since the Blood Draw and not a word on the results. They can have results in a few minutes, it’s done all the time in ER for unconscious people that may have OD’d on drugs or alcohol. So this alone tells Me she was either on something, drinking OR we have the start of a Coverup...

I’ll bet that a Chain of Custody on a Water System BacT Test sample has a better CoC than her blood test did.

And I will not believe that she was “overtired” from a 12 hour shift she just came off of. I’ve worked many 12 hour shifts for years including Doubles- alone at Water Treatment Plants treating 30+ Million Gallons a Day

Yeah, when a police officer enters my home without permission or warrant and issues "verbal commands", there's a problem and it's not with me. This officer's story stinks more every day.

Agreed. I don't care what the cop is saying, I'd be yelling "Get the f* out of my place!". And we all know cops have guns, so we're not going to mess with them. She shot him twice in cold blood. Murder. Should never have been a cop to begin with.

So no mention of witnesses who heard banging and yelling? And she didn’t notice the red mat outside the door??

right.

NO trained professional does what she did unless she was IMPAIRED or had some other relationship with the victim.

LOTS of home invaders pretend they’re cops.

The 1990 Gardner Museum heist comes to mind. If you know who did it, they've got $10m for you.

The Saint Valentine's Day Massacre is another example of criminals dressing as cops.

Just the fact that she seems to believe that whether a man obeys commands from a total stranger who just broke into his home is relevant in any way is indicative of the culture of total impunity that results in “comply or die”.

She’s a straight up murderer and given that she’s in Texas the death penalty ought to be under consideration.

She's trying to blame this guy for his own death.

Her argument is basically that every American citizen should live every moment of every day waiting for police to bust in unannounced, without a warrant, and start barking orders at us. Don't freeze in surprise or shock, because if you hesitate, you die in a hail of bullets.

She doesn't want me on that jury.

"That's a long shift"

I normally work half days (12 hrs) and up to 14 six days a week.

Work in the oil field and it may be 24-48 hours on location. I have driven OTR 24 hours. I found my home just fine without killing anyone.

... or believes that the risks inherent in shooting someone, like murder charges, wouldn’t apply to her because of her employment status.

Remember the cop that jumped on the hood of an innocent person’s vehicle, emptied his gun through the windshield and murdered the driver, and then actually got away with claiming he feared for his life?

Too many cops believe “I *AM* the law!” and too many real-life incidents confirm that in many cases, in actual practice, they are.
