DALLAS-The fatal shooting of a man in his apartment Sept. 6 by a Dallas police officer has sparked a number of questions, not all of which are easily answerable.
Here's what we know about Botham Jean's death and Amber Guyger, the officer charged with manslaughter in the shooting.
WHAT DID OFFICIALS SAY HAPPENED THAT NIGHT?
About 10 p.m. Sept. 6, Guyger called 911 to report the shooting at the South Side Flats in the 1200 block of South Lamar Street in the Cedars.
Guyger, 30, told police she had parked on the wrong floor and mistook Jean's fourth-floor apartment for her own, which is directly below on the third floor. Police have said Guyger was in uniform after working a "full shift."
According to the arrest warrant affidavit, she inserted her key, which has an electronic chip, into the keyhole but the door was slightly ajar so the force of inserting the key pushed the door open.
Guyger told police that when she went into the dark apartment, she saw a silhouette and thought she was being burglarized. She drew her gun, gave commands "that were ignored" and fired twice, striking Jean once in the torso, the affidavit stated. She then turned on the lights and realized she was in the wrong apartment, according to police records.
Jean was pronounced dead at Baylor University Medical Center.
Critics point to differences between the Dallas Police Department and Texas Rangers records that indicate Guyger's account changed. The police search warrant states that Jean confronted the officer at the door, while the Rangers' affidavit said Jean was across the room when Guyger walked in.
One law enforcement official has said the evidence so far doesn't determine whether the door was unlocked.
A neighbor said she did not hear knocking or yelling before the gunshot, which she assumed to be a domestic dispute, and then heard the sound of a woman calling 911.
Attorney S. Lee Merritt said two people reported hearing knocking and a woman's voice saying, "Let me in," before the shooting.
WHO WAS
BOTHAM JEAN?
Jean was 26 and a native of Saint Lucia in the Caribbean. He worked with at-risk boys there, visited orphanages and ministered to the sick, his mother said.
He graduated in 2016 from Harding University in Arkansas and moved to Dallas and worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers. He attended Dallas West Church of Christ, where he was a song leader.
Friends and family remember Jean as someone who loved to help others and volunteered his time, as a man with a beautiful smile and a beautiful voice.
A farewell service was held Thursday, a week after he was killed. The funeral was in Richardson, but his body will be returned to Saint Lucia.
WHO IS AMBER GUYGER?
The 30-year-old is an almost five-year veteran of the Dallas Police Department who started in the southeast division. She was later chosen as the only woman on an elite crime response team that makes high-risk arrests.
In 2017, Guyger shot a man after he took her Taser from her while she was providing backup during an arrest. She was not indicted in that case.
Guyger was placed on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of an internal investigation into Jean's death. Some have called for her to be fired, but Dallas police officials say they will not discuss her employment until the investigation is complete.
IS THIS CONSIDERED
AN OFFICER-INVOLVED SHOOTING?
In the immediate aftermath, Jean's death was handled as an officer-involved shooting, however, within a day, police Chief U. Renee Hall said that it was no longer being investigated as such and that she requested a warrant for Guyger's arrest.
A blood sample was drawn to test the officer's level for drugs or alcohol. The results-if the tests have been completed-have not been made public.
WHY WAS GUYGER CHARGED WITH MANSLAUGHTER AND NOT MURDER?
Three days after the shooting-on Sept. 9-Guyger was arrested and charged with manslaughter. She quickly posted bond and was released from the Kaufman County jail.
Some defense attorneys have argued Guyger should have been charged with murder because manslaughter, according to the Texas penal code, is an offense committed if someone "recklessly causes" the death of another.
But the charge can still change.
WILL THE CITY OF DALLAS BE HELD LIABLE?
There are many other questions that factor into whether the city has any legal responsibility-including the length of the shift Guyger worked and whether it matters that she was off-duty at the time.
