yeah there's more to the story than is being told, no way a cop is that stupid
and unaware of their surroundings to walk into the wrong apartment on the
wrong floor !
I've done it. My wife has done it (on separate occasions). The folks downstairs were just as surprised as we were! Fortunately, they didn't shoot...
And it happened to us (although we're smart enough to keep the door locked).

Wow... murder? Seems a little harsh to me.
Manslaughter maybe...not murder.
She did "intentionally" intend to neutralize the threat as she thought he was an intruder.
But she never "intended" to kill as required for a murder charge.
Hopefully she'll get that thrown out on appeal.
This is one time I agree with Joe.
She didn't commit a crime. She made a HUGE (and tragic) mistake due to poor training & not being suited for the job.
Is she and her department civilly liable? Sure. Sue them into the Stone Age. Was she criminally liable? Maybe Involuntary manslaughter, but murder? No.
There will be appeal(s).

I know she was tired from working 12-hour shift and when you lack sleep shit happens no matter what.

Definitely seems like a legit manslaughter case, but not murder. It was the racial angle that got her upcharged.

If my texts are ever read in open court, they'll bury me UNDER the jail!

Did you hear the victim’s family attorney’s news conference? I heard it on the radio and he’s, in a preacher type voice, saying “this one is for Trevon, etc. He was rattling off the names of all recent LEO involved shootings.
Yes, it’s a race thing. No doubt

Yeah that should definitely be appealed I see it is only manslaughter at best

The judge (who's been rolling her eyes at the defense all week) has it out for her. I'm betting 20 yrs.
