Former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger, who killed an unarmed Black man in his own apartment -- saying she thought it was her own residence -- has appealed her 10-year prison sentence
Amber Guyger, the former Dallas police officer who fatally shot an unarmed Black man in his own apartment -- saying she thought it was her own residence -- has appealed her sentence.
Guyger was convicted of murder last October and is serving a 10-year prison sentence. Her defense team says there was insufficient evidence to convict her of murder. The court should either acquit Guyger of that charge, or acquit her of murder, convict her of criminally negligent homicide, and hold a new hearing on the punishment, according to the court filing.
