Botham Jean posed no threat to Amber Guyger at time of shooting, expert testifies
SUMMARY: Testimony has concluded in the wrongful death civil trial against former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger, who is being sued by Botham Jean’s family for his 2018 shooting. Guyger mistakenly entered Jean’s apartment, thinking it was hers, and shot him, claiming she believed he was an intruder. A crime scene expert testified that Jean posed no threat when shot, contradicting Guyger’s claims. The first officer on the scene noted Guyger did not assert that Jean was armed or charging at her. Jean’s family seeks a civil judgment for justice, with potential damages in the tens of millions. Closing statements are set for Wednesday.
Tuesday’s testimony was marked by a crime scene reconstruction expert who said Botham Jean posed no threat to Amber Guyger when he was shot.

Man at the center of Austin woman's murder has extensive criminal background | FOX 7 Austin
SUMMARY: Noah Matta, 36, has a lengthy criminal history in Travis County, with around 40 charges since 2006, including DWI, assault, and theft. Despite numerous arrests, many of his offenses resulted in minimal sentences, such as probation or short jail time. Recently, Matta was involved in an incident where a gun was fired during a struggle, resulting in a woman’s death, leading to charges of aggravated robbery. Critics argue that lenient treatment of repeat offenders undermines public safety, advocating for stricter enforcement of the law to protect the community and improve quality of life.

Man accused of killing his uncle makes first court appearance
SUMMARY: Antonio Guzman, 22, charged with murdering his uncle, Jose Torres, 37, made his first court appearance today. Guzman allegedly shot Torres at his home after feeling unloved and unwelcome, having lived with him for six years. He is held on a $200,000 bond, which a judge declined to lower. Despite allegedly admitting to the crime, Guzman’s defense attorney insists he is innocent until proven guilty and will review the evidence for any constitutional issues. Torres was found deceased at home by his wife and children after not picking them up from school. Guzman’s next court date is January 28.
Jose Torres was shot and killed at his northwest Harris County home on Friday. His nephew is charged with capital murder in connection with the shooting.
