Former Dallas P D Sergeant Amber Guyger was found guilty of murder in the death of her neighbor last year. The jury rejected a possible manslaughter verdict. She could get up to 99 years in the slammer.
I admit I have trouble with this one. Manslaughter, no problem. There is zero reason to believe she had any ill will towards her neighbor or that the shooting was anything other than what it appeared to be, a colossal fuck-up. I think the Black-White thing overpowered the issue (my opinion, for what that may be worth to you).
EDITOR'S NOTE: I think you're right about the Black-White thing. Manslaughter seems more applicable than murder. But here is what one police-hating anonymous asshole said about us on Scott Henson's Grits for Breakfast:
"I'm sure Bark and his less than intelligent buddy Bob are crying in their beers over the Amber Guyger verdict. Like I said in a previous post..the times are changing and the crooked cop era is coming to an end."
