Former Dallas police Officer Amber Guyger testifies at murder trial of neighbor Botham Jean.
She earlier grew emotional on the stand while defense attorney Toby Shook began questioning her about when she tried to use her electronic key fob to open the door to Jean's apartment, and had her recreate that moment following a brief break.
Jean, she added, appeared to be coming toward her and yelled,"Hey! Hey Hey!" in an"aggressive voice."She only noticed she was in the wrong apartment after seeing an ottoman in the middle of the floor and noticed the television was on, she testified.
Guyger on Friday said she was tired after her 13-1/2-hour shift, but that while she and Rivera's physical relationship had ended, they still shared flirtatious text messages.At the heart of the trial is whether Guyger's use of force was reasonable when she opened fire inside Jean's apartment, believing it was her unit and he was an intruder. She has said she put her key into Jean's apartment door, but that it pushed open.
In a 911 recording played earlier this week, Guyger said,"I thought it was my apartment," about 19 times.
