I hope the jean family is hugging his grieving family smh

People can be brutal 😢 instead of getting a hug for testifying he gets a slug in his mouth..how sad is our world..thats another innocent life gone too soon..RIP young man..prayers up for family and friends.

This is the guy she intended to shoot

We can not stand for this unacceptable unjustified and definitely fair!!!!!!!!!

Guess who rides again in the dark.

Does not surprise me. All orchestrated to annihilated the black man.🤔

Texas rangers ?

Shot in his mouth. 😞 Somebody is sending a message.

Your country has become unhinged!!!!!!!

This is heartbreaking, he was killed for doing the right thing.

Cops did it...my humble opinion

GemachuMahmut This is just horrible, disgusting and very very wrong.... my heart goes out to this young mans family!! 😭😭 He was trying to do the right thing! The old boys in blue club!! Scary, repulsive!

Whatever happens to witness protection...

Wow this sends a message out there, that cops are above the law. Now it is clear why all these other cases of police murdering African Americans never amount to anything. They probably threaten witnesses not to come forward.

We need to block road, riot and protest this planned murder!

What a coincidence - not. That's exactly why so few people trust the police nowadays

How is that even possible.. that poor guy. Something is going wrong.. really really wrong.

He wore a Dragonball Z t-shirt to court?

Shot in the MOUTH? Now that ain’t a coincidence ...

GovHowardDean Oh my gosh! This is just horrific!

Total coincidence, I’m sure

FBIDallas must begin investigations immediately!! This is an egregious act of racism and retaliation!!

Kkk members got upset about his testimony!

I’m just here for the conspiracy theories

Two black young men shot dead and she'll be out in a couple of years

His testimony was so emotional and moving . This is such incredibly sad news . May Justice be done - may the perpetrator for the heinous act of ending this innocent young mans life get the full 99 years sentence in jail! May Joshua Rest In Peace 🌹

Who did it?

Sounds very convenient to me !

He was murdered. By the police.

Put some respect in his name Joshua Brown

Was this in retribution for testifying

A black man who helped put away a white police officer who shot a black man is shot to death days after the…

I'M SO DAMN ANGRY 😠 BEEN UP ALL NIGHT 😴

He was a witness against the police and he was shot in the mouth. We don't need sherlock holmes on this one

I hope all the white Christians who ‘celebrated’ on social media the forgiveness of the Amber Guyger will now support justice for this young man with equal measure.

It was a meeting that showed Stephen Biegn's incompetence in working-level talks between Sweden, North Korea and the U.S. Stephen Biegnun's foolishness without verification has been caught by North Korea.

What happens to witness protection program?

U know two wrongs dont make it right

Harry Dunn crash: Mum appeals for US suspect's return

OMG! Get All, and I mean All Surveillance camera recordings Within Of 1 sq. Mile of this crime,s vicinity. Do it NOW !!!

Iraqi youths take shelter in the wall of a church in Iraq from Iranian militias. Even the role of churches in Iraq is not free from the bullets of Iranian militias

And that is a pure coincidence?

Ok... ? 🤷‍♂️.

Shot in the mouth after testifying against a Dallas PD officer...

The city of Dallas is fast becoming like a mafia city. This is a wake up call to authorities to act as soon possible.

the Iraqi people are protesting since 5 days ago and the Iraqi government cuts the Internet service and blocks social media from Iraqi people please save_the_iraqi_peope UN UNHumanRights hrw CBCToronto vicecanada

Is this the same America the current President is doing everything to keep 'people' away from?

Seems like trump is involved if witnesses are disappearing mysteriously

Uh, not suspicious or anything. 🤦🏻‍♂️

They couldn't wait! Whistleblower please please 🙏🙏

Clinton’s?

Wtf!!!!!!.....really.....will not this discourage future jurours

That doesn`t surprise me ! ! ! ! ! ! !

This was nothing but a hit squad

Was the car black and white? 🤔

Wooooooooow

Welcome to the shit show

Had dirt on Clinton?

Devastating, please follow the 💰 of everyone involved..Indirectly and directly..This is too closely correlated to the trial..

I find this to be very suspicious! A key witness to an officer involved shooting gets killed. He doesn't have gang affiliations. He's shot in the mouth. That's a warning to future potential witnesses! He won't be around for an appeal will he?

This is so terrible

Silver sedan aka undercover cop smh 🤦🏽‍♂️ and y’all MFs kept preaching that forgiveness BS

Sketch, somebody connected to racist cops probably...

Now people are gonna be scared to testify against cops even more

To act as if those at the wheel of justice weren’t responsible is an injustice in and of itself. I’m ashamed to be American today. GodSaveAmerica

Black women make the worst mothers.

So hood lol. Who wears a T shirt to court?

Was Hillary Clinton in town ?

OMG 🤭😢😢😢😩🥺

😭

Heartbreaking what has happened in America...I pray that they identify the shooter(s). Guns and violence ...the destruction of society. I am so sorry for his family.

Omg

It's stuff like this that makes people think something nefarious is afoot.

Wow what a coincidence ? Oh well ..

How is this not fishy

I call this special move the 'Epstein'

If everyone is screaming ‘cops’, what’s the reasoning? The storyline?

Getaway car?

My bet is the boyfriend.

Really strange isn’t it? Hard to believe it’s a coincidence.

So sad. Such a great young man with lots of potential. Not a coincidence. She had a couple of boyfriends including a cop she was having an affair with

Jesus🤯

I see her appeals process has begun....

God have mercy

Responsible working man. Shot in the mouth after testifying against someone who was then convicted of murder. 🤔

Hmmm....maybe Amber's boyfriend. Worth looking into.

I’m not saying the cops did it but damn that seems fishy!

This really deserves a real independent investigation. 🤔

I smell a rat🤬

They definitely killed this man

This is too high a coincidence to be ignored.

michaelharriot

Was it random or a police sanctioned assassination.

HoustonMade713 DallasPD should not be in charge of this investigation.

But more guns though....helpful.

I’m thinking the FBI needs to step in.

If Dallas PD don't find it's killer , it's clearly obvious who did it.

When it comes to the cops, shut your yap.

Joshua had parked his car in the designated apartment complex parking area and as he exited his car, he was shot in the mouth/ chest at close range. The car sped off. This was a planned hit job.

That’s just wrong and extremely heartbreaking 🙏🏼💛

I don’t believe in coincidences.

Is this a conspiracy?

Is this a consoiracy?

ScottJamesLafond murdered Abigail Williams and Liberty German AbbyandLibby DelphiMurders

Another POTUS

Um let’s see who did it, her lover that’s who. Please find his killer.

What a friendly neighborhood.

Wow.

No winners in this game.

Hillary's to blame!

Our country is a disgrace right now.

WTF?

Maybe the brother & the judge will hug his murderer too once he/she loses their badge after a conviction for murder

Very sad 😞

Jumping to conclusions is the best exercise

Conspiracy

😲

Wait witness protection didn’t save him?

Oh no. That’s horrible.

JFC. Absolutely horrific and retaliatory!

What the hell! Something stinks in Dallas.

TexASS Police just taking revenge on the key witness against one of their own officers.

Attorney : Joshua Brown , Prosecution witness in Amber Guyger murder trial , fatally shot at Dallas Apartment Complex.

And let me guess...no witnesses.

I guess the message being sent is if you witness a crime, turn a blind eye!

Botham Jean's brother embraces ex- cop Amber Guyger , who was convicted of his murder.

Neighbor of Botham Jean who delivered testimony in Amber Guyger murder case is shot dead.

Wow, I will need to verify on another network to make sure it is true but it is a tragedy if so!

The fuck?

That makes me so sad

Dallas PD at their best.

Texas is still the south. Police are KKK

rip

They need to find out who did this and bring them to the public like they did this lady. We all NEED to know who killed this man and why! Unacceptable this happened. Especially if he was in witness protection?

Um

No Way!!!

Was it HillaryClinton ?

One of Amber's cop friends shot him

The rabbit hole is deep.

If it's the cops, someone should show them a calendar

Smells like a retaliation hit

Not suspicious at all. No sir.

Please help FBI!

How insane is that ?

TsMadisonatl1 TheQCDocket lovelyti

Assassination

This doesn’t sound fishy at all😩💔

I'll never move to the Apartments Amber Guyger lived at, geez

Don't they have surveillance videos in the building? In the nearby buildings? The perpetrators would be caught.

Wow . Pretty obvious not a coincidence

Hm

Its imperative they find his killers... JusticeforJoshuaBrown

Omg.

How sad!

Curious !

So the Dallas PD now as its own death squad.

I hope the FBI or someone else is investigating this! No way I let the Dallas PD anywhere near this case! This smells dirty as hell!

😓😓😓😓😓😓

Internal affairs need to investigate this. Not the police.

If all you morons are to be believed, someone really dropped the ball and killed this guy about 6 months too late.

This is terrible. Back to the 70's?

Gee, wonder why people hate cops
