If you hear a burglar in your house it might just be a police officer looking for crime.
@dr;g3850 Amén!!! 💯
To be fair, the defense was opposed to going into any structures. The prosecution says that he should have tried the doors and cleared the garage. Just saying...

I agree Dr G 🎯
A guilty verdict is the only thing I want to hear from the jury. This was completely wretched.
Get rid of qualified Immunity.
And as everyone knows,you cant look out of a window in the dark,and see properly,she had no chance.
With a flashlight blaring into your face
I LOVE THIS PROSECUTOR,he asked this murderer if he'd like to lay there until EMS got there after shot her.OH NO BECAUSE HE WOULD BLEED OUT.
The prosecutors proved their case beyond any reasonable shadow of doubt. This Jury has the Power to provide a semblance of Justice for a completely innocent young woman's MURDER!
Totally Agree William.
William Cobb - this Prosecutor is the one you want fighting for justice, fighting for your loved one ⚖️
Let him have it Attorney Smith don't let the people believe his lies 😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬
Please. I'm so sick of prosecutors being actors. He was out of line.
@@starlightgarland the police in the wrong he went to the academy it was train that he was supposed to announce that he the police. give it some time for someone to respond before he enters the house. it's also in the police c o d e book. Don't get mad at the prosecution get mad at the policeman and the defense.
That’s not accurate at all. But if I’m wrong, please tell me the witness and provide a time stamp. And I’ll reconsider.
Yes. It is dangerous to feel secure in your own home in today's world.
Not in Canada, only in America!
The Prosecutor should have asked the jurors to put themselves in Tatiana’s shoes and ask what would they have wanted the Officer to do?? This was a welfare check not a Burglary in process call. Police are PAID to put themselves in danger to PROTECT & SERVE all citizens.
In her final seconds this Officer showed no mercy and didn’t give medical aid to Tatiana. In fact he probably hoped she wld die and it would only be his words to excuse this murder.
His attitude on the stand showed he didn’t care then and doesn’t care now. He should have stayed at home but Tatiana is a taxpayer and Oates his salary to PROTECT HER. He wasn’t doing her a FAVOR he was supposed to be doing his JOB.
Just an FYI - it is prosecutorial misconduct to ask a juror to put themselves in the victim's shoes. They simply can't do that. It's the law.
@@starlightgarland You must be an expert RIGHT? ITS AGAINST THE LAW TO SNEAK IN HER BACKYARD AND MURDER AN INNOCENT WOMAN NOT KNOWING WHAT IS BEHIND THE TARGET
There's so many ways he did ask them to put yourself in her shoes. He just put it another way saying what about if it
was you and the police were in your backyard backyard rummaging through your property. What would you have done. Then I would have went for my GN and tried to protect my nephew. Loved your comment❤
@@tinadavis566 and the fact was even if there had been a thief like he thought the thief could have been out the door while he was in the backyard. The protocol is get the house covered so any possible thief can't get away. With only the people there there was no way that would happen.
Prosecutor made Great points, in this closing. 👏
I can’t think of one reason why anyone would defend that cop except if they are just completely biased. He is completely GUILTY of murdering Atatiana.
I agree I just had to tell this lady to roll four paragraphs does she needs to stop victim shame. She didn't even have everything right it was all mixed up. She's trying to blame the victim for having
gn.
This State Attorney has integrity; and pointed the jury to the truth.
I hope the jury understands what truly happened and find the Defendant *GUILTY* !!!
Oh wow! Absolutely bonkers you are saying this. Please please never find yourself on a jury
@@chefjb435whattt. Are you serious?? Explain on wjy hes not guilty??? Omg. I dont even know where to begin. I could say anything. But yoy already had a preconceived notion.
This officer acted REASONABLY under the circumstances. I mean I dunno what else ro say. By sending this guy to prison potentially 99 years? Is just absurd. Its not justice. Justice soesnt mean to just nonchalant willy nilly send someone to prison because a “ bad outcome “ happened
@@chefjb435i hope someday you can have it in your heart to forgive this man. We as human beings as a civilization have to stop condemning and exiling these police officers. Whenever they are involved in a shooting
@@Nall412 you can forgive a person and still hold them accountable. I 100% believe that that man has no intentions of killing someone and that it was a reason. However he has to be held accountable for his poor choice of actions. He intruded on someone's property without announcing himself, he flashed a light at someone without announcing himself. And within half a sec of giving orders ( again without announcing himself) he shot and killed that woman. You and I both heard the same trial where he admitted to mishaps along the way. He created the dangerous environment that led to her death, not her. She responded how any other legal gun owner would when someone is trespassing on their property and flashing lights in there window at 2 am. We already know that she stays in a rough neighborhood, why would she assume it's the police and not a criminal that she has to protect not only her but her family.
But even after the accident, he never gives care. He never tries to stop the bleeding. If this was an accidental again as an officier you give care to the victim (especially if you're the cause of damage)
No matter how you spin it he messed up multiple times and should spend time on prison. Not 99 years but I certainly believe 15-20 years is appropriate with parole
@@rantsNrambless lol. Im not spinning it at all. It doesnt matter how he would act. You guys still hsve him guilty from the start. He could have curled up in a ball cried like a baby on the stand. Youd say hes faking. See what im getting at? This officer should be found not guilty.
Why did he not talk to the neighbors first and call her by name? Since the neighbor is the Mayor of the Street...Why did he not call her. You have to be sure of situations before calling the Cops to someone's house is all I'm saying.
@Gina thats such a great question! Or even either of the the 911 & the dispatch call takers could have asked the neighbour for her name and related it to the Officer!! However, the Officers defense was/is, "it was an open structure call! We don't knock and or announce"
Gina - you are so right. Noisy neighbour did not tell the dispatcher there was a young child in the house. If police had known that, you can bet the call would have been handled differently.
@@HollyGW Yes Holly...I Totally Agree.
@@SJC49 OMG Sally...So True!
He didn't even realize there were 4 grown people outside across the street.
"Aryan" Dean never rendered her aid so we know who he represents.
Guilty asf
The policeman never dropped a tear and he didn't look sorry about the young lady dying. he just had this Stone face like the prosecution said. I wonder who else he has did this too got away with it.
Any emotion will sway the jury and will be misleading by ANY emotions. Crying could mean :guilty, sad he got caught, an error on his behalf, sad it happened, emotionally exhausted, now my life is over etc. a defendant is not suppose to show any emotion for this reason 😢
@@Nana2KCASBO You’re probably just as heartless as the cop you are defending.
@@Emma-yg2uf you have no Business judging me~I’m NOT defending anyone. Just making an observation comment as a profiler~ please😂🤣
@@Nana2KCASBO I have business judging you. You’re heartless for defending a cop who isn’t even sorry for what he did.
@@Emma-yg2uf I’m not judging anyone but simply making an observation. They teach the “accused” to not show emotion. It’s a fact. As to not sway the jury. It’s a fact. I’m not saying anything about the case at all just observation. Look it up. I’m not defending him at all
Omg I love this prosecutor.
Seriously, he held nothing back and prosecuted this man as the guilty dog he is instead of being biased and lightly prosecuting him.
I was really touched to see how effective and passionate both prosecutors were throughout this case! I know Atatiana's family was grateful for how they represented their loved one.
She should’ve shot the cop in self defense. He was the violator.
She was a little preoccupied and incapacitated after having JUST been shot in her chest!! Duh... 🙄🙄🤦♀️🤦♀️🤬🤬🖕🏻🖕🏻
Prosecutor guessed exactly right, when he said “what were u excited to get that kind of call, you had to go in there all gun ho?” That’s exactly what he did trying to make a name for himself and save the day. Yea he saved the day aight.
He and Linda Dunakoski, the prosecutor in the Ahmad Arbury case gave masterclasses
Aaron Dean is writing non-stop i need water water!!! Why is he writing ?
Lock up the dangerous boy murderer and throw away the key.
Wow!
I'm not holding my breath that he will be found GUILTY, he killed her, he's a murderer~ Wilmrbadguy
Me too💔
Me too
Should have shown the jury what 1/2 sec looks like.
Like suddenly shouting a command to touch their noses. Then in 1/2 second start finger shooting them. "You're dead. You're dead. You're dead. But I told you what to do. I gave you a command. So why are you all dead? Is it because you didn't do as I said"?
Like the murder of 12 year old Tamir Rice playing in the park with a toy gun.
I like how furious the attorney is. Very good.
Why didn't he say drop your weapon and put your hands up?
Have you been listening? He did shout out to her but she was pointing the gun at him and he had a choice to make.
@Edwin In answer to your slightly rudely put question, I think it is you that hasn’t been listening. Zion (the nephew who was a couple of feet away from her, in her bed when she was shot) testified that she pointed the gun. Please review the video of Zion speaking with the crisis counsellor directly after the incident. He also said the same thing to one of the police officers. He did change his story at the trial 4 yrs later (after being interviewed several times by the very aggressive prosecutor). He actually has cruelly been accused now of ‘lying’. He is still a child and it’s a terrible shame he has had to go through this. I’m sure we all wish him well.
@Edwin Does NOT mean she wasn’t pointing the gun. According to you we can’t rely on eyewitnesses any more? Why would Zion say something incriminating about his aunt (even if he didn’t realize the implications) if it wasn’t true?
It wasn’t even a second before he shot that not enough time to follow any order
@@SJC49btw I luv how you accused @Edwin8699 of rudely asking a question by asking you were you listening which is the same question you ask the original poster. Make me wonder if we got a Karen in the house
@1:38 That finger pointing was cold AF. He knew exactly what he was doing to that cop
Thank God I don't live in Ft.Worth and if I did I would have moved after this happened.
It’s good we are starting to finally hold the police accountable for their actions. We should hold everyone to the same level and keep DT from ever being able to run for office in the land.
And too the caller that called needs to be held accountable too
Guilty af
This prosecutor did absolutely amazing great job!
That is one despicable looking FORMER police officer!💯
Amazing work on the prosecutors side he held back not once he let loose just as if that ex cop were a regular citizen that has committed a major crime he was fair and passionate about this case god bless this prosecutor 🙏🏼
That state’s attorney is a shark in a good way!!
Hes murdered eight people in five months,how could he still be a cop,something seriously wrong here.
💜💜💜 May these be tokens of healing 💜💜💜🙏
I do not like this prosecutor at all..he asked ridiculous questions and was argumentative and the judge should have stopped him..he’s trying to make an example of him, probably running for office
that person wasn't lying it was some bad police work it was like he was blind shooting in dark
She had not even a chance
And this officer shows no remorse for what he did
Could have knocked at anytime or shouted police.he sneaked about,almost as if he was looking to do this.out and out murder.
Look at that no chin no courage
Can they fix the audio being recorded in the court room.
sentence should be no less than ....LIFE WITHOUT A POSSIBLTY OF PAROLE.... BETTER YET DEATH SENTENCE
I rather life without parole it gives me joy imagining him in a small cell and getting his butt kicked everyday I say let him suffer 1000 times over again
@@brownsuga24401 yes that would be great
Cases like this give a DA a chance to get sympathy votes when in reality this guy has probably gotten cops out of all kinds of crimes…but I guess we should take what we can get
Looks like they going to have a necktie party. "GREAT DAY FOR A HANGING FOR EX - COP AARON DEAN!"
That's o e rattled up prosecutor
Give the video a like! We want to see more great trial coverage like this
FTP
Even if he is found GUILTY the judge Will probably OVER rule the verdict and give him probation are a light sentence, ive seen that happen b4
Hopefully!
@@SJC49 then he can work near your house let’s hope no one calls the cops thinking ur in trouble
@@jborrego2406 Let’s hope I don’t have a noisy neighbour who, while he’s spying on his neighbour, didn’t have the balls to take one of the many relatives sitting on the porch with him over to knock on the door and ask Atatiana if she was okay. Instead he called the police but didn’t tell them there was a young child in the house - that call WOULD have been handled differently.
A man that wanted to be a cop for the power he could hold over others. I have seen a few of them in my lifetime. I have also known some LEO that really were decent human beings. What a shame the bad ones make it worse for everyone LEO's and citizens alike.
its only the bad ones that get all the publicity. Yes there are many good cops I thank them all. Pray they all stay safe and go home to their families.
Enter opinions in the comments
This is completely inappropriate. The way this prosecutor was conducting himself in his closing arguments. Absolutely ridiculous and he should be ashamed of himself. I dunno how this man will ever look at himself in the mirror if this officer is convicted
@@chefjb435 what was the truth? Lol you make it sound like tghis officer wanted to go out and kill somebody that day. And he were covering it up or something
@@Nall412 regardless of intent he killed her and has to face the consequences. Unless you believe cops are above the law? Because if a citizen did that this would be considered an open and shut
@@The_Glazer lol o no. You are not understanding the law here. No one is saying hes above the law. And a person cant be held accountable criminally. Just because he shot and killed her
im talking about this case. Yes a person can be criminally convicted. But in this certsin incident i find it hard to believe he will be.
@@The_Glazer by your understanding and logic. The prisons would be over populated. They already are now as is lol. But in this one unfortunately she died. Butvhe cannot be held criminally responsible. If the family wants to sue civily. Go right ahead
Both prosecutors pounded emotion and irrelevant issues. The defense pounded the law and evidence.
Other issues aside, the first prosecutor's naked appeal to to the jury's power was possibly the mist unethical and improper argument I've heard uttered in any of these cases.
Yelp. He has been found "guilty" sooo...
Hahaha they lost. Hope he rots.
Awful but lawful
Incorrect
Obviously unlawful. Most obvious case of guilt ever.
It’s always lawful for cops to gun down citizens in their home. This cops a creep. GUILTY
This closing is a disaster by the prosecution. They have no case so they have to misrepresent the law and break the rule of impartiality on the part of the jurors. They should be in jail for malpractice.
You should be in jail for a low I.Q.
She burned hamburgers and played shooting games with a minor in the house…. Who is to say she would have heard the officers if they announced themselves? Who is to say she wouldn’t have come out with a gun? Hmmm 🤔 she knew there was a fire and fire alarms prior she should have know better that this was either police or fire brigade… playing shooting games for hours on end… The officer did the right move…
You are the problem
It was Smoke ...not a fire in the oven. I heard no one say anything about a fire.
Totally agree!
Clearly you’re insane 😂
@@tammyslade1375 guess so is everyone who doesn’t share same opinion as you… he is innocent 😇
This case was grossly overcharged…. It’s clear the officer made far too many mistakes and created this …. And the worst is that an innocent person died…. But the prosecutor would want the jury to believe it was planned in order to make the charges stick . I certainly hope this jury is given instructions on lesser charges …. No way did this officer intend on killing ….
He did plan it. He was determined to go into the backyard. He opened the gate and noticed that window was almost flush with the fence gate.His first look showed him it was dangerous. That's why he made sure his partner was ready. He purposely went straight to the window because he knew he had his gun ready and his partner ready on his left. He wanted it.
Do you not understand the way premeditated murder works? It doesn't matter WHEN you make the decision to kill or use force that a resonable person would know can kill... he said he made the decision to shoot he shot her, a RESONABLE person knows that SHOOTING someone is likely to kill them and a cop CERTAINLY knows that's why using a gun is called DEADLY FORCE!
Stop making up facts to fit a false narrative…. According to you , this officer planned to murder someone ? In particular the victim in this case …. Manslaughter at best …. I’m sick of people of color being gunned by police but that is not a basic fact in this case ….
I’d accept the charge even if the crime didn’t entirely fit the statute if I were on the jury bc I’m am absolutely sick of the lack of accountability for officers. They aren’t held to the same standard of law and even when guilty they’re sentences are jokes, so I won’t be held to the exact* law either.
@@Meanie74 good call! The jury does have some discretion.
The neighbour should be in jail too. He called the cop.
If she cleaned up the house and didn’t leave it trashed tge officers would have handled this differently instead if arriving seen a complete mess looking like burglary! Arghhhh all the excuses now… he did the right thing and he is innocent. Why didn’t she respond to his command? Because she obviously couldn’t here him because of all the shooting in the game
You're only joking, right? You recognize people can't just go around shooting innocent people inside their own home, right? You don't really believe that is an "innocent" act huh?
Exactly right
@@vincent4801 ahh vince. She was pointing a gun at him. He had the right to defend himself. Just like she had the right to defend herself.
@@vincent4801 you have to take into consideration what the cops knew at the time. They were responding to an open structure call. They treat that as a burglary in progress. They get to the house. Inside it looked like a tornado went through it. So what do you think they are thinking? Its nobody’s fault. Nobody intended ill will on the victim. Its just one of those things that happens. Unfortunately she lost her life. No one should go to jail for this
I can't wait till you eat your own words. It's coming be sure of that.
Obnoxious prosecutor - shout loud enough and defendant must be guilty. This was a terrible situation yes but this officer didn’t ‘murder’ anyone!
If that coward didn't murder her, murder isn't murder.
@Edwin You throw the word ‘murder’ around pretty loosely.
let's just say he took an innocent person life
he did not murdered anyone? have you seen the video? watched the case? this p.o.s. murdered an innocent victim at her home a ruined many lifes. GUILTY AS CHARGE SHOULD'VE BEEN CHARGED WITH CAPITAL MURDER
The scene was observed and officers determined it was possible burglary in progress. What adult shovels hamburgers in oven and go play shooting games, causes a fire, leaves front door wide open and goes back to playing shooting games! All this with minor in the house! Officers didn’t just go there because they had nothing better to do and they don’t shoot occupants! I would have done the same especially when nobody bothered to mention there suppose to be a child in the house. If it wasn’t the case then why didn’t the neighbor shout fir the occupants after he observed the trash and the door open? Why did he stated he would have but he has no gun and he doesn’t feel save to go there! So what makes you think the officers should have handled this differently than the neighbor? The first thing one would do is get the child of the bed and shelter with the gun in their hand ready for to protect themselves and call 911 not grab a gun and go pointing it at a window simply because it’s their house. Too many shooting games! You don’t grab a gun and leave a child on the bed exposed to danger! If anyone feels threatened or in danger they wouldn’t stand on the window, but grab the child and the gun and call 911! If she had done this dispatcher would have told her that’s officers on scene very likely and to stay where she is until the dispatcher checked with the officers! I’ve never seen it even in movies someone grabbing a gun and going straight to the window in dark! Exactly why the officer fired! Who on the right mind would think terrified occupants would hold a gun behind a window exposed…
Tell me how many calls have you responded to? How many spoof calls, tell me how many critical incident calls?
You can't pass the blame here buddy, it all goes back to mandated policy and procedures sop, it all could have been prevented by announcing is anyone in the house this is the Fort Worth Police!
@@samuelephraim870 are you seated on your ears? They couldn’t announce themselves it was against the protocol because it was determined as burglary in progress.
The nephew was learning how to cook and burn it by accident. You don’t learn to cook without burning or messing up a few thing and what burglar is going to leave a door wide open so people can see what they’re doing
@@sminfluencer3860 he wasn't over there for a burglary he was over there for a wellness check. He killed that young lady and then he made up a alibi that he thought it was a robbery. Stop making excuses for these cop killers they're bad cops they don't need to be on the police force. I never seen anybody rob a house and leave all of the the doors open make this look suspicious and also like the prosecution said if he thought it was a robbery and the rubber was broken off the the the scream door he is supposed to call for backup that's protocol it's in the police c o d e. He learned in the police academy. Police lover most of them don't even respect the public. We're paying their tax money to send them to a police academy and to protect the public. 💔🎯
You sound delusional and shut up she didn't have time to move her nephew off of the bed. How many minutes did it take him to get to the back and pull a gun and . You people stay they want to defend these bad cops.
After watching this case, it’s disgusting they bring charges against law enforcement in this case.
It’s horribly tragic this happened, but not criminal…
Boot licker
Did you watch the trial?
They were dispatched to the property due to a call from another citizen, not just wandering around neighborhoods looking in windows.
He acted exactly as directed by the handbook. Maybe there should be changes to the police procedure, like announcing themselves,but no criminal act committed.
If someone points their gun directly at your face someday, for your family’s sake, I pray you’re the one to act first.
And if you’re ever in that horrifying situation I would hope your local prosecutor understands you have the right and duty to protect yourself.
I guess we’ll find out when the jury comes back!
And to clarify, had she fired first, I don’t think she should be charged with a crime either!
@@marciamason4971
Mature!
I’m just applying the facts to the law. Had the young lady been on trial for firing at the officer because she saw the barrel of a gun pointed at her through the window, I’d say she’s innocent too!
Not sure what name calling accomplishes, but enjoy the dopamine hit.
@@jpforvp had she fired first he would
've deserved it rightfully
No you don’t have reasonable expectations at home when you’ve caused fire with a minor in tge house!
There was no fire what trial are you watching?
It wasn't a fire it was smoke and that shouldn't elude to a police approaching a house with a gun bc of a supposed fire or smoke? You need your head checked.
You need mental help and fast. Okkk
@@dianablackmack8415 I can say the same about you! Why don’t you check your head if you’d acted differently? Of course you have no answer to this question because you weren’t there and you haven’t experienced what the officer did, but if you have answer that you wouldn’t respond like he did then you’re delusional lier!
What 🤔
The prosecutor is embarrassing himself! What a joke!
Not guilty !!!!
Let the cop go, you know how hard it is to be a cop today? LOL 😂
let the criminal go.. and put you in on the window and have you take the bullet tha took the life of """TATAIANA JEFFERSON. yes then let hin free of any charges I'll go for that
