Former Dallas Police Officer, Amber Guyger’s Appeal Denied

Former Dallas police officer, Amber Guyger’s appeal was denied again in the murder conviction of her neighbor, Botham Jean.

Guyger fatally shot Botham Jean back in 2018, when she entered the wrong apartment thinking it was her own. She is currently serving a 10 year prison sentence and won’t be eligible for parole until 2024.

Her appeal for a rehearing was denied over the summer so her attorney filed another appeal with a higher court in August.

That appeal for a rehearing was also denied Wednesday by the 5th Court of Appeals in Dallas.
