Texas cop didn't say 'gun' before fatal shooting, search
Former Fort Worth Police Officer Aaron Dean looks towards his attorneys during the second day of his murder trial on Tuesday, Dec. 6, 2022, in Fort Worth, Texas. Dean is accused of fatally shooting Atatiana Jefferson in 2019 during a welfare check.
Darch, 27, took the witness stand on the second day of the long-delayed trial and recalled Dean shooting the 28-year-old Jefferson while the officers were responding to a call about an open front door on Oct. 12, 2019. She acknowledged having memory problems because of two strokes she has suffered since then.
Bodycam footage showed that neither officer identified themselves as police at the house. Dean’s attorney said Monday that Deanof Jefferson with a gun in the window and a green laser sight pointed at him. Darch testified that Dean never said “gun” before he opened fire and that he didn't mention a weapon as the two of them rushed into the house, a recollection supported by body camera footage played in court. In the footage, the officers could be heard yelling “hands up” and “show me your hands” as they searched the house. But Dean couldn't be heard mentioning a weapon until he was looking at the gun next to Jefferson's body. Darch recalled seeing the laser sight on the dropped gun.
