    You want the definition of what "unarmed" means? REALLY?
    Pick up a dictionary!

    Unless someone is shot (at), it's not something you can find as it doesn't make the news. However sometimes you have a drunk banging on the wrong door or sometimes it's someone visiting or otherwise relatively new to the area. While I can't give a link, I can share a story of my mother when she was a kid visiting her sister and she accidentally went to the wrong apartment.
    The witness closest to the incident didn't hear any knocking. Ultimately, this doesn't affect me. Whatever the investigation finds, I'll be satisfied with. Who knows, maybe she turns out to be a serial killer and this was her next victim. I'm just here saying that the details surrounding her story isn't that hard yo believe at face value.

    When has a black person in Texas ever had a fair trial, either as a defendant or as a victim at the hands of whites? It is not a fair trial when the cop lovers flub the case against a killer cop. It is so easy to prove that the killer is lying that it is pathetic. Show the prominently displayed signage from the garage that shows that she was on the 4th floor instead of the 3rd floor.

    If so she won't do well in the trial

    Your posts and others indicate that hell hasn't frozen over. You simply refuse to question the killer's story.

    So, we got "this happens all the time"... is derived from a iffy hear-say story of what might have happened 50 years ago. And that still doesn't come with the account how fast she realized it. Safe to conclude you're just making up excuses out of nowhere. Can you quit that to keep this discussion honest?

    You simply do not just enter a wrong apartment with lights outside that bright, number on the side lit, you sober coming from work,... without noticing it. There is no way you be looking into some iffy dark apartment as if it's a cellar. She also wasn't preoccupied or anything according to herself. Stop making freaking stupid excuses up.

    You're in no position to dismiss what she hear or did not hear.

    I never said that the DA will present the evidence that shows she deliberately killed the guy. He will cover it up and let her off with the lightest possible charge.

    That is not the same as black people are treated equally. That's just lying.
    And discrimination of law abiding black people is all over the place as well.

    Black people get equal treatment according to how they behave

    See above where I say obviously her belief was mistaken which is why manslaughter will stick.

    Vicious will =mens rea. Mens rea= intent.
    You're a layman aren't you?

    An upgrade is a possibility, if she can prove the requisite criminally culpable mental state attached to the crime, the mens rea.
    Did you read the cases I laboriously copied from Westlaw earlier?

    Which is why I'm eagerly awaiting the results of her blood work, the report on evidence found after the search warrant of the scene to see if it turns up evidence of her knowing Jean, and the locks data?
    Yeah, sure Sparky.

    I'm a lawyer, so I want to see the law followed. When you dont follow the law, bitches skate. You want bitches to skate? Keep asking for more kangaroo court corner cutting bullshit.

    Every thread you start and every post you make is about race.
    So why are you surprised when someone else comments on it?

    Why? We're going to treat conservatives just like they treat blacks. What's wrong with that?

    Her belief she was in the right apartment was a mistake, her shooting was intentional. Don't care what you posted. I expect the DA to up the charges.

    Which has nothing to do with whether she can show the requisite criminally culpable mental state at trial. There are numerous recent cases of charging murder when manslaughter better fit and the perp walking.
    Her shooting so far according to evidence that is on the table and not under it, is manslaughter. Absent some evidence to show she has lied like her bloodwork testing positive for marijuana or her lock or his showing an entry or closure where her story says it shouldn't or witnesses coming forward with sworn testimony instead of news rumors, etc it should remain so if they want to convict.

    As a result of that mistake, manslaughter.
