Seeing as how they've already proven she wasn't tired and wasn't planning on going to bed I don't see what difference they think it's gonna make.

I wonder how many murders have happened afterwards!

So easy to sit on your high tower, Mr. Man!

Let he who hasn't accidentally committed a fatal home invasion cast the first stone. Not so smart now, are ya?

You got me!

Wait a second though, they said that Amber was taking her dog somewhere (Ranger?) because there was going to be someone in her house, a maintenance person. I don't know if that helps her at all either.
 
And defense is now disputing the text, saying Jean wasn't planning on hooking up that night.

I mean... that's what the texts said so I'm not sure how they are arguing it beyond 'It's devastating to my case, please ignore it please oh please."

Hmm, gotta check. Did they pack the jury with 90 year old technophobes? Because everyone under the age of 60 knows what "cum over ;)" texts mean. Right?
 
If she can't handle taking on a person bigger than her (she's ******* 5' 2" and 110lbs) then she shouldn't be a cop.
 
"Defense team talking about a scenario where Botham Jean was advancing on Amber Guyger."

Wow the"Okay I'm gonna to make up an alternative universe fan fiction scenario, if you could judge my client in that instead of in the real world that would be just super" started early.

I like that he's handwaving away the fact that she did nothing to help him at all outside of calling EMS.

I laughed entirely too hard at this.
 
Simultaneously playing the "Mark and her weren't together" and "he was her rock and she depended on him!"

Nice...

Oh what a ******* surprise the chick wasn't tired at all. She wasn't dragging feet with the last of her energy just to get to bed.

What's the next excuse apologists?

I have been known on many occasions to stay up past my bedtime, even going out and partying when I should be going home and getting some rest. Such parties are never as awesome as I expect, usually because I'm too tired and end up passed out in a corner after half a beer. I attribute such poor decision-making to the fact that I'm kinda tired when I'm making the decision to stay up late anyway.
 
Seems that the defense is going for a "no criminal intent, just a tragic accident" defense, as expected. Not sure what other option they really had. Though I didn't hear anything about extreme fatigue or any other such excuse, just run of the mill carelessness with tragic consequences.

Realistically, hoping for a lesser conviction, hung-jury, or not-guilty would all use the same defense strategy. Who knows how persuasive this will be to the jury.

Yeah, there really isn't anything else they could try.
 
Of course we have to explain why a grown ass man might smoke pot in his own apartment. It is Texas, after all, gotta get out in front of the "Reefer madness" narrative.
 
It's all character assassination to put the image of a big scawy drugged out black guy in the jury's mind.

She was describing me to a T as well. I am diagnosed ADHD and can't stand the effects of the medicine. I am zero percent shocked that's the path he took.
