Next: getting a jury to acquit him.

This is just bad... Fk Texas.. 2 civilians dead by cops and then the cops drag a mentally handicapped black man thru the streets of Galveston by a horse. Calling BS

He will walk away

Just another Cop being a Cop, welcome to America

KKK in uniform, what a mistake?

I usually stand up for law enforcement but this guy deserves to go to prison. You should never be shot in your own home while minding your own business. I feel for that family.

Until the police start policing instead of protecting each other, we will never be able to trust them!

This is Texas. Right here. Everyday in every way. Cowboys, rednecks, killer cops.

Don’t you mean the Texas racist who wore a badge .

Fort Worth, Texas, police officer who fatally shot Atatiana Jefferson resignsThe resignation came hours before the department intended to terminate Officer Aaron Dean's employment. They resign to keep their pension. This may go to trial but he will have his pension. And better be indicted! When anyone is that trigger-happy they should never be near a gun again. Let's hope he doesn't get hired by some other police dept.

Outraged Fort Worth leaders ask why police shot black woman inside homeFort Worth police face backlash after an officer shot a young black woman inside her home as she played a video game with her nephew You don't say?
