For so many unarmed black and brown human beings all across america, this verdict today is for them everybody can raise their hands. This verdict is for them. This verdict is for them. We the jury, unanimously find the defendant, amber guyger, guilty of murder as charged in the indictment. Reporter justice sometimes can feel elusive for mothers of black men. But for alison jean, her arms outstretched to the god she had prayed to on this day, justice had come. Amber guyger who killed allisons son bon his apartment was convicted of murder. For his family and the onlookers, this conviction represents something greater. This verdict is for trayvon martin, michael brown, sandra bland, its for tamir rice. Its for eric garner. Its for antwon rose. Todays victory gives a sense of hope and possibility and justice to the many people who were killed by the state and did not get any form of justice. Reporter the verdict marking the climax of a case thats captivated the nation for more than a year. Breaking headline out of dallas at this hour. The police call it a very unique case. Reporter fueling a National Conversation about race, Police Transparency and one officers use of deadly force. No justice, no peace reporter last september, amber guyger was returning home after a 132 hour shift. She lifted in 1378 on the third floor. Directly above her in 1478 was botham jeans apartment. The st. Lucian described as a ray of sunshine. Botham had a love for everyone. Reporter jean was an accountant and an active member of the church of christ. The spirit of the lord reporter that fateful night, he was home watching tv and eating ice cream. Guyger entered the apartment saying it was her own. This one stretched the imaginations and goodwill of even the most generous supporters of the police. The idea that someone could walk into an apartment thats not theirs, to somehow convince yourself that that person is in your house, committing a crime and your option is not to back out of house but to shoot and kill them, all those factors were incredibly hard to stomach. Reporter todays guilty verdict flies in the face of National Trends surrounding police killings. 106 nonfederal Law Enforcement officers have been arrested in conviction of shootings. Only four convicted of murder. In dallas, some believe the stitide is shifting. Amber guyger is the third officer to be convirktcted in recent years. Ladies and gentlemen, you have three innocent men. Reporter the stretrend is i part due to reformers who campaigned on Justice Reform and supported calls for amber guyger to be charged with murder. Seemed to me people were misinterpret egg this was murder based on the facts reported. Reporter he made headlines, dismissing more than a thousand lowlevel drug cases before backing a bill requiring police to turn over all their evidence. Running on this platform of them going to prosecute Police Officers more and muore. Reporter during the trial, g guyger testified in front of a diverse jury, with five africanamerican jurors. She said she accidently parked on the fourth floor and walked in. She said she put the key in the door and it just opened. At that point she heard someone inside. I believed someone was moving around my apartment. I wanted to find that threat. Reporter she says she saw a figure move toward her. In court, guyger demonstrated how she said she confronted the person. I had my gun pointed, and im saying let me see your hands, let me see your hands. What were you focussed on . Him. Why did you fire . I was scared whoever was in my apartment was going to kill me, and im sorry. I have to live with that every single day. Im an offduty police officer, i shot a guy thinking it was my apartment. Reporter guygers 911 call introduced as critical evidence. We have help on the way. I know, but im going to lose my job. I thought it was my apartment. Reporter the Dallas County d. A. s goal, pointing out contradictions in guygers behavior, beginning with why she went into the apartment despite hearing noise inside. You could have called for help on your radio, and you could have had the calvary there in two minutes. I could have. Could you have had s. W. A. T. Mobilized. I could have. And had you done any of those things, mr. Jean would probably be alive today, right . Yes, sir. Reporter defense attorney Brian Buckmire saying this was telling. When you look at the verdict that was given, murder, not manslaughter, its obvious the jury believed in opening the door, pushing forward and knowing there were sounds someone inside that her actions inside that home were intentional and not reckless. Therefore, that was murder. When you aimed and pulled the trigger at mr. Jean, shooting him in center mass, exactly where you are trained, you intended to kill mr. Jean. I did. When your client is asked, did you intend to kill the person, your answer should be no, i intended to defend myself. Now if amber guyger taking the stand saying my intention was to kill him negates the whole, werent you trying to defend yourself . Reporter last week, prosecutors played the chilling body cam footage. I thought it was my apartment reporter officers sprinting down a long hallway. You can see the bright red floor mat outside jeans apartment, something prosecutors pointed out was something guyger should have noticed. On the body cam footage, several officers immediately start cpr trying desperately to save jean. Something they say guyger did not do. Did you perform cpr on mr. Jean . I did not. Why would you not try to do cpr . Reporter she said she texted her partner and lover twice, telling him to come to the scene. Both of those times you put your needs and wants over his. I still cared about him. Reporter while todays guilty verdict in the guyger case may have brought one city a step closer to Holding Police accountable, experts are still wary of any national shifts. It doesnt next the problem, and it doesnt erase the long history this country has of citizens dying and there being no justice. This jury had to make history in america today, because botham was the best that we had to offer. A 26yearold collegeeducated black man. Certified public accountant, working for one of the big three Accounting Firms in the world, but it shouldnt take all of that. Right. For unarmed black and brown people in america to get justice. Reporter for botham jeans mother alison it wont bring both botham back. My life has not been the same. It has been a rollercoaster. I cannot sleep. I cannot eat. Its just been the most terrible time for me. Reporter for nightline, im marcus moore in dallas. Our thanks to marcus moore for that report.
