Texas Highest Criminal Court Agrees To Review Murder Conviction Of White Police Officer Who Killed Unarmed Black Teen

/ Roy Oliver’s conviction was a landmark ruling, as police officers are rarely indicted and almost never convicted of murder in on-duty shootings. As law enforcement’s disparate use force against Black people continues to stoke division in a troubled nation, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals plans to review the high-profile murder conviction of former North Texas police officer Roy Oliver, who fatally shot an unarmed Black teenager. In 2018, Oliver, who is white, was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the 2017 Balch Springs police shooting death of Jordan Edwards, a 15-year-old passenger in a car moving away from officers. The jury’s decision was a landmark ruling, as police officers are rarely indicted and almost never convicted of murder in on-duty shootings.
