Well worded
This young lady did everything right. She went to college, moved in with her mom to help her and help raise her sweet nephew. This cop robbed the world of a beautiful spirit. Who is expecting a cop outside they back window at 2am when they didn’t call them?! She didn’t even have a chance to process what was happening. Praying her family gets justice.
With you in 🙏
Well it's not really the cops fault that he was outside her window at 2:00 a.m. now is it? I'm sure he didn't want to be there. Your statement makes it sound like he did something on purpose why can't people see what this is is a tragic accident and there was no malice there was no intention to kill. This officer made a mistake
@@stacyhenry5578 A mistake? I respectfully have to disagree. No he made several mistakes and one ultimately led to the loss of life. The call was made to a non emergency line for a welfare check, not the emergency line which someone would use if they suspected an active robbery going on. He did not properly assess the situation and did not take an objective approach which should be the defining difference between an everyday citizen and a law enforcement officer.
@@stacyhenry5578 please listen to the testimony of the xcop on stand I from family of law n force forcement and there no place in the training it says you go to a location without ID yourself and you don't shoot into a house he got call from neighbor that he was concerned so please follow the case before defending a Rouge cop
It's very sad, but there is no justice. Some things we do can't be taken back
How do so many serial killers get to become police?
Technically, he's not a serial killer until he kills 2 more people. Right now, he's just a "regular" killer.
Too many

@@turtletruth the Supreme Court says they have no duty to protect, so I’m like what the hell is there job
Wonder why he didn't tell the jury his trainers said he would be to hot headed and like trigger happy and they recommended him Not being hired but he got hired anyway.He failed the first time he applied.Never should have been hired🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖
Soooo you must have gotten the report no one else did? You a pig too?
When you call someone an animal it takes away from your statement 🐒🐒🐒 Don't you think?
Laws need to be abolish this crap makes me sick really. He not even remorseful
None. Which makes this even worse, his arrogance is condemning, keep it up officer. When the prosecutor begins his questioning his tone is QUITE different.
Exactly. They love to use the excuse they they feared for their lives. Cowards.
@@Hunee- God let that murderer get justice.
Not even a little bit
Right; He’s all smug and self righteous! I’m glad they found his weak asZ guilty!!
You absolutely have NO remorse, and you will be making yourself comfortable with Bubba, as you should 🙄
You DIDNOT announce yourself, and you absolutely DIDNOT attempt to render any aid! Should have NEVER been allowed to legally carry a weapon! 😡
I haven’t watched the whole trial but did his partner yell out identifying herself while he was creeping around?
Another coward with a gun & an itchy trigger finger. The interview footage from his hiring process, they ask him, "could you kill someone?" He says, instantly, "yes, no problem." He probably had been waiting for that moment his entire career.
It's the phony crying for me. This is bs
They tell the witness to LOOK at the jury and talk to them as if they ask you the questions that’s what this fools is doing look at his face turning to answer towards the jury boy your guilty
Did he not think it could have been the ppl that lived there
Imagine if he had shot Zion instead...
He didn’t think. Within 5 seconds of seeing someone he shot.
Ikr, especially since he knew the cars in the driveway was described as the people's who Lives there
I had the same thoughts..
This was one of his biggest mistakes. If only he considered this possibility. I think that's why of he'd follow protocol.
What stir my pot is that two cops were there and not one of them thought to knock on the door, and if your afraid you wait for backup , it's power in numbers
And if the situation inside the home would have been different and there would have been a bad guy in there killing her should they still have waited for backup? Just curious
@@stacyhenry5578 No, he shouldn’t have recklessly fired into a home. Stop trolling. Your privileged ways affect your thinking. I feel sorry for your mother
“Wow, he looked at the jury as if they were his friends. Don't be surprised if he charges murder 1. All-white jury. 2. No remorse, 3. Fake tears.
It's the crocodile tears for me. He is a blatant liar. His partners story pretty much contradicted his.
Why is he happy to be on the stand? He is so happy to be acknowledged. The reason he was home schooled is because he was bullied and not seen, and what do those people do, become officers...smh
I was thinking the same thing.
Exactly!
Do they?
Attorney's have a gentle tone and Atatiana's nephew was roughed up!
Exactlly
Roughed up???? He said he couldn't remember anything except what he had for dinner, playing games, and a room full of animals
The headline for this video should be how do you grade yourself LOL the prosecution destroyed Dean
Or "Is THAT good police work?" Lol
I would’ve tried to step down! 😂🤣 🗣”NEVERMIND!”
Should’ve said “I’m not an instructor “
Fake crying
Oh they're real tears...because he's scared of going to prison, not because he feels bad.
So what's the excuse this time for taking an innocent life
He claims she pointed her gun at him!
@@Poo531 but also said she was bent over. The nephew said she was standing gun down by her side looking out the window and she immediately fell after looking out the window.
@@adaughtersheart he’s guilty and he know it!
@@adaughtersheart I pray her moaning and crying stay in his head for the rest of his days I pray she haunts him!, did you hear her cries? poor baby
She had a messy house I guess they didn’t find weed to blame her so it’s a messy house
His tone! He is answering the questions aggressively. He appears agitated.
He is good he should have been a actor not a cop lmfao
He only pretended to cry when talking to the defense lawyer, & he says he was focused on giving her medical help, but yet never did
wonder if he'll be that happy when he steps through prison doors. Truth: he's a trigger happy cop hiding behind a badge. Legalized bully.
He just hung himself. He said that he seen her pointing the gun at him, said hands up then he fired 1 shot. Then he said that after they entered the house when he went to move her gun that he noticed a green laser light going across the wall. He testified that he had trouble turning it off. So the laser was on when he shot her. The laser that was attached to her weapon. Why you do not see a laser coming through the window if she pointed her gun at him??????
THIS MAN HAS NO EMPATHY, SYMPATHY, COMPASSION. NO EXPRESSIONS OF REMORSE. YAHWEH IS JUDGE. HE IS IN CONTROL.
He has no brains also.
Monster
I like how he wants to tell his story, the American justice system and all their laws are not for BIPOC. I said what I said, period!
I would like to know how or why when a cop kill or murder someone especially in their own home it takes so long to send the cop to prison? But when a black person shoots back and kill a cop with 24 hours they are locked up, charged and sentenced if not kill n the way to jail. He needs to go to prison asap, that child will suffer the rest of his life from the trauma he caused him and his family. He shows no remorse, just like the cops who murdered Brianna Taylor.
Well said!
I agree
He is doing this fake crying but gets a kleenex only wipes his nose and not his eyes. Dude stop it you are not remorseful. He has lied several times on this stand. And then catches himself. And the defense has lead him in his answers several times.
These fake and convenient tears are tripping me out!! The prosecuting attorney did an Amazing Job!!
Becoming an officer in your 30s is very strange. Sounds like an emotional decision. To me it seems like someone who played video games and thought becoming a police officer would be a real life game.
I would take it as the other way. Young people in their 20’s thinking it’s a video game. Dudes turning barely 21 and barely legal to drink or just getting their license 3-4 years prior and already enforcing driving laws that they barely learned at a dmv packet before the driver test
BLUE LIAR!
5 minutes in & I find him arrogant & acting like Amber Heard on the stand.
The laws or procedures need to change. You can’t give us the right to protect our homes and bare arms then shoot us for doing so. I understood both sides.There has got to be a way for the police to announce themselves from a safe distance and there has got to be a way for a home owner to protect their home. Also that officer should not have been patrolling that neighborhood it’s obvious he is afraid of black people
At what point did the officers announce themselves?
They didn't until after he killed her and then finally went into the house
They didn't
He lying that video shows him going in with the gun not drawing the gun
He said the partner had her gun drawn and he didn't. That's what threw me.
I thought maybe I was tripping cause when he said he had to draw his weapon I was thinking like I must have missed that part cause the video I watched he already had the gun out maybe they cropped that part out of the video we all seen😩🤣😅🤦🏾♀️
@@nannagonekeepitreal3766 right. His weapon was out. He made the shot. I didn't even see the partner in the back yard unless I missed it.
killer
I bet his tongue is burning with that lie. Her house was messy like someone was looking for items, yeah right.
Did you not see the inside of that house? You do realize that the neighbor called stating that he thought something was going on over there right? You guys act like he was over there simply to shoot this woman peeping around her window. He was doing his job
@@stacyhenry5578 ok we will hire him to watch over u an ur love ones
@@stacyhenry5578 it doesn't take a genius to tell from his bodycam alone that it was just trash on the floor. Homeschooling did this pig zero favors
They kill me with the fake crocodile tears. He wasn't crying when he was taking her life! Boo Hoo
38?!?! Dude look like he about 50
This woman was in her own home and she has every right to have a firearm in her home. Notice he said house was stuff everywhere her home so you shoot. Convict and quick. No it’s not the young woman fault why not say police. Guilty throw key away. Zion baby God got you.
How do you even defend yourself and justify shooting and killing a homeowner inside there own house?
Funny they didn’t want to hear the victims history of achievement
Mee too
Didn't matter. Never does.
Did anyone else hear her crying in the video playing in the courtroom??? Or am I tripping?
Yes she was crying and moaning bless her...
An he said she sounded like a dog , that’s what he thinks of black ppl
Speak his truth well I think the video shows the truth you were trigger happy she didn't stand a chance ,my opinion you murdered her
Hear the truth from him lmfao do the last 10 people who testified lied lmfao
i doubt he will have remorse if found guilty.
Nope, he’ll only feel bad for being in Jail. He could careless. He changed a little boy’s life forever
Why didn't he say drop your weapon and put your hands up?
Because this was his chance to get a free kill and get his stripes
Oops, he messed up on his theatrical performance. The tearless cries need some work, as well.
11 year peace officer here to educate. What this came down to was bad tactics that stemmed from inexperience. Calls like these happen all the time. The chances of you rolling up on a burglary in progress off of a radio call are slim but they aren’t none. Still, good Practice is to take precautions upon approach to the structure. A call like this I would probably park away from the house where I could get the long eye and call back the neighbor, see what she knows about the residents. Then I would run the cars in the driveway. Yeah also see if the neighbor could give me a number or call themselves to the owner of the house. Have my secondary unit go to the front door while I go to the back of the driveway where I could see the back door for containment purposes. We will call for one more unit and then they would knock on the front door and announce Fort Worth police. If she couldn’t hear all the way to the front then I would announce at the back with my big boy voice POLICE, POLICE, Fort Worth Police! Anyone inside this address come to the front door and meet with the officers! Would’ve situated itself at that point.
Too bad you are the one that responded. Or someone with your expertise and common sense.
@@tenacious1 as far as I know the most dangerous time in an officers career is his first 5 years. If you’re gonna get fired, arrested, or killed it’s gonna be in that time frame. Thing about this profession is it’s getting younger and younger. The younger it gets the more likely we are going to continue to see things like this
@@mrmateojones8368 except he became a cop in his 30's 🤷🏼♀️
@@juliejackson667 he was young on the job, only a year and a half on.
That it looked like a robbery took place according to him sounds like BS to me. He tore that place up himself.
it says it all, "hands up" >bang, not drop your weapon or gun, as HE NEVER SAW A GUN, before the facts of finding it and seeing the video, and the reason he never cautioned his partner about the danger of a weapon .
Facts…you could tell he didn’t see it before by his reaction when he first came in house and saw it
You can't hear the attorney asking the questions! Please improve audio and if you can repost it. This is awful!!
Court:...do you swear to tell the truth....
Aaron: yes...just not the first time I'm asked. 🤦♂️
Wasn't Aaron asked to swear an Oath to uphold Our Constitution and Our Rights within? Yet, here he is violating that Oath. Why would this court believe Aaron has the character to tell the truth?
Hey Aaron, I think your body cam does a better job of telling the truth than yourself 🤷♂️
He claimed to wonder who would bring a kid to a robbery... Yet the little boy was only wearing underwear?? Why wouldn't that register to him.?? Why would someone bring a little boy only wearing underwear to a robbery smh. Some people have book smarts but no common sense.
So you really just tried to use I WAS LOOKING DOWN THE BARREL OF A GUN while crying with no tears at all coming out to gain sympathy from the jury after just saying you was yelling let me see your hands hands up duh you suppose to have been looking down the barrel of a gun if someone hears noise outside their home then look out their window and see someone just yelling because their inside their house thinking a random stranger is outside trying to come in thru the window maybe if you would have been yelling police police you could have used that statement you made about LOOKING DOWN THE BARREL OF A GUN but by you not identifying yourself you made yourself look like a SUSPECT (intruder) to her now you trying to play victim like she did something wrong when really the only victims was her nephew because she was in her own home she had every right to try and use deadly force to defend her and her nephew from what looks like a complete stranger who is trying to gain access to her home thru her bedroom window‼️
The psychologist saying he has narcissistic properties wasn't lying
He was all confident and smiles until that prosecutor approached the bench……the state of Texas did a damn good job and both prosecutors literally fried,baked,air fried and fried him again. He showed no remorse at all but that’s to be expected from a narcissist. The bros down at TDCJ will make sure he’s well taken care of 😉
He is showing no remorse but instead laughing at questions like he have done nothing wrong and showing that he have no guilt for what he has done completely disgusting 😡
Why he just didn’t go to the front door and identify as s police officer,this were supposed to be a welfare check only!!! Am quite sure he will get to walk as a free Man!!
Exactly! The call was made to a non emergency line not the emergency line which would’ve been the case of an active robbery. He was wrong!!
I can’t imagine that these lawyers think that this guy could EVER come off as someone that anyone would like??? He comes off as very cocky and with no regrets as to what he did….smh
Think Amber gave him some crap acting lessons
Did you see tha prison she is in?? It has tennis courts no gates basically a federal ran country club for killer police & it is crazy💖2022💖
@@sheashea4748 my heart bleeds for her♥️🤮
He’s a murderer I’m a former law enforcement officer and the VERY LEAST he could of done was give her CPR immediately but he stood there. Just stood there and listened to her take her last breath. I hope her family sues him for every dime he’s made or will make. He killed her momma too! And that little boy will need counseling for the rest of his life too
He is not a serial killer he was just a cop doing his job
Why does he turn his head to look at the jury when he answers every single question?
This guy is the poster child for the type of personality that should NEVER be a cop.
and its so many thats cops 🤦🏿♀️
Arrogance.
(That gun was pointed directly at me) along with his expression&looking at jurors while saying it seems weird to me!?
I admit I "THOUGHT " he was innocent until I watched him testify! He's acting , fake tears, stumbled on his words about his flash light. He PANICKED & murdered that poor girl!!
Never ever thought he was innocent. If you can yell at the top of your lungs stop resisting while beating the brakes off a person, surely you can announce loudly that you are the police doing a welfare check.
Aaron: It's tragic, sh00ting someone...so I couldn't be alone.
Berch: I placed the victims nefew in the back of a police car and left him alone...
🤦♂️
Do y'all see these government trained and vetted buffoons, character, yet....or lack of character!
Prosecutors should've asked him where in the training and procedures and protocols to respond to a possible home burglary ?
That's exactly what I thought as well!
Yes!! This is a wellness check
Officer Dean, stop sniffling cause you're not crying........ if you had cared, you would have rendered aid when she was alive.
🐷
He never announced he was the police.
Exactly!!
Where was his back up ?
Did he not watch tha same footage everyone else did?? He is basically telling us we are blind & deaf. I heard SHOW ME YOUR HANDS WE ARE COMING IN then a shot. I did not hear PUT UP YOUR HANDS, SHOW ME YOUR HANDS, SHOW ME YOUR HANDS then a shot. Lastly she had a laser on her gun which was turned on & I nor him or his coworker seen tha beam, so when was it pointed at him?? Please someone make it make sense.💖2022💖
He is SMILING like he WON a PRIZE WTHECK.... My CONDOLENCES to the FAMILY may this young lady REST IN PEACE.
There's nothing he can say or do that will change his very stupid actions first of all he didn't announce himself as police at all he and his partner crept up looking for a burglar I'm sure a car was in the driveway at the home so he didn't call for the home owner or even a resident.Then he started his search at some point in time he came to the glass door where Mrs Jefferson was standing looking for someone creeping in the backyard according to the other person in the home.She wasn't aware police had been even called so her legal right as a gun owner in your own residence and was still inside all of a sudden Mr dean saw her and her pistol instantly got tunnel vision and shouted hands up police!! Followed by a gunshot to the chest in the heart not a shot in the leg or anywhere else he shot right to the chest it seems after he commanded to put ur hands up she honestly had no time to follow his commands he fired as he was still talking I think my wife said a second after..Either way she couldn't even comply to his commands in my eyes it seems he was looking for a reason or excuse so he could pull the trigger and get away with another police officer involved shooting or killing.And what really made me kinda sick to my stomach was the lack of remorse after shooting the home owner.I mean not the slightest bit of remorse almost like he feels justified in what he did.This trial sure has some weird turns in it for example dismissing the jury for almost a week when the prosecution rested it's case.If this man is found not guilty that will be the worst mistake since the Rodney king suspects trials in Los angeles.lord knows he deserves to go to prison for a long time in my book.Alot of cops put in the same situation would've handled this differently police officers are supposed to use good judgement and not be trigger happy But smart and protective also and good judges of characters and situations also.This guy fails out of second grade when it comes down to good judgememt and has a serious lack of sympathy and shouldn't of been hired as a cop to begin with...rest easy Mrs Jefferson...
A narcissist just can't help themselves. SMH.
He look not remorseful and crazy
He got a degree in ` ENGINEERING and PHYSICS '? Did I HEAR that right? And if that's a YES my QUESTION ⁉️ is how did HE become a COP?
I really believe that the psychological testing for law enforcement offices should definitely be overhauled.
Way too many officers/cops/deputies killing the innocent & even maybe the not so innocent they vow to protect & serve!
He's acting like he was a COP for many many year's
This monster killed her because he wanted to.
I honestly think he thought he was going to be hero, he jumped to conclusions, He went to a call and thought he was going to save the day. I do not see how you can look down the barrel of a silhouette. His testimony was very robotic. Tough job being a police officer. things could not have gone any worse than they did. RIP young lady!
DID THE PROSECUTOR ASK HIM QUESTIONS
This is why no competent attorney will let their client take the stand. This moron is the physical manifestation of cringe.
Everything this person (not Officer DOES NOT deserve the title) did was according to the protocol of Aaron Dean……The End!
Proof that all the assessments and all evidence against him he is a real narcissist.. He thinks he can talk his way out of.
I know nothing about this case, but I just read somewhere that she had a gun she was pointing out the window when he saw her in the house. Is that true?
The sound is horrible! I expect much better from Fox
Valuables in the kitchen cabinets smfh
Hopefully he gets out of jail in no time with good behavior. BS conviction to begin with
Rest in Peace, Atatiana. ACAB.
His walk up to the Podium irritated me
Oh good, another lawyer who doesn’t use a microphone 🙄🙄
I .watched the whole thing before reading comments and wow. Exactly I agree why is he happy why is he saying things not on the video why is he pretending to care why why why your guilty you know it. Atleast the coughing in the court room was better today than before everyone must of been shocked
Yes , and the coughing was hard to deal with.
Those are fake tears! Smh! Dude be for real
Omg, this deadly situation is tragic - everyone's worst nightmare!!
I'm speechless.
A concerned neighbour does what any neighbour would do: Call the police to check on his neighbour's house as there's an open door of the house and it's been open for an unusually long time. It's an upscale neighbourhood.
Police arrive and invade the home, killing the young woman innocently playing video games INSIDE THE HOME with her 8 year old nephew. Why didn't they follow their training and Standard procedure? This officer is not a cold blooded, racist killer cop like the one in George Floyd's case. He sounds experienced and competent. What happened to 2 cops on scene.
?
What kinds of things were strewn all over the floor? Was it trash, or contents of drawers and closets? I saw trash.
Well he has a major in Physics & minor in Mechanical Engineering! So definitely has the background for law enforcement correct? No!
He should have been employed in that area; no hand gun required & he wouldn't have been responsible for killing an innocent person!
RIP🛐
here it is 💯 put ppl where they belong
Anyone watching Sheriff Ed Troyer's trial????
Yes, waiting for the jury!
