The case has inflamed racial tensions since former Dallas,
Texas police officer Amber Guyger, 31, who is facing murder charges, is white, while the victim, Botham Jean, was black.
Guyger claimed after the September 6, 2018
shooting that she mistakenly believed she had returned to her own apartment and that the 26-year-old Jean was an intruder.
In fact, Guyger had entered Jean's unlocked apartment located in the same building but one floor above her own home.
