Shameful
Man this Black police chief just keeps sinking lower and lower into the sunken place... this explanation makes no sense.
Dallas police chief explains why she hasn't fired cop who shot neighbor dead
DALLAS – Dallas Police Chief U. Reneé Hall has issued a statement explaining why no disciplinary action has been taken against Officer Amber Guyger. Guyger is charged with manslaughter after she shot 26-year-old Botham Jean, her neighbor, on Sept. 6 at his apartment.
The officer told investigators that she mistook Jean's apartment for her own and thought she was being burglarized. However, his family members told CBS Newsthat Botham placed a red carpet in front of his door to distinguish his apartment from others.
CBS Dallas/Fort Worth reports that Guyger's case is being investigated by Dallas Police, the Texas Rangers and the Dallas County District Attorney's Office. Some in the community, including Jean's family's attorney, have called for Guyger to be fired.
Chief Hall addressed that in a statement on Thursday, explaining why no action has been taken. Here is Hall's complete statement:
"There is one overriding reason that I have not taken any administrative or employment action against Officer Amber Guyger. I don't want to interfere with the on-going criminal investigation into her actions.
"Here's why. As an employer, DPD can compel Officer Guyger to provide a statement during a DPD administrative investigation and those statements given to DPD could potentially compromise the criminal investigation.
"That is not a risk I am willing to take. We cannot let the criminal case be determined on a 'technicality' rather than the facts. An exhaustive and thorough criminal investigation is essential, and as soon as we are assured that conducting an administrative investigation will not impede on the criminal investigation, we will proceed."
Dallas lawyer and former police officer Pete Schulte told CBS Dallas/Fort Worth that he questions the chief's statement. "Both the internal investigation and the criminal investigation should be ongoing at the same time," he said. "There is no ability for the internal affairs investigation to cross over to what the Texas Rangers are doing. It doesn't make any sense legally why these two investigations cannot be going on simultaneously, like they have happened in every other case."
Last week, attorneys for Jean's family accused Dallas police of trying to "assassinate his character" and expressed fury that authorities sought a search warrant that resulted in the discovery of marijuana in the victim's apartment.
At a news conference, the lawyers said the search warrant, which allowed investigators to look for drugs, should have never been issued. Lee Merritt, one of the Jean family attorneys, said that investigators wasted no time in digging for dirt they could use to smear Jean's name. Within hours of Jean being shot, they asked a judge for a warrant to search his home for drugs, among other things.
"On the night that he was killed, the Dallas Police Department investigators were interested specifically in finding information that could help assassinate his character," Merritt said.

he should have...clearly that bitch was out for blood...better her than him
What exactly are YOU doing?yep?
and why is this happening? b/c they know niggas arent gonna do shit but march and discuss shit
The same thing that you areWhat exactly are YOU doing?
If you were doing what I was you wouldn't have the time or energy to say what other folks aren't doing.The same thing that you are
^^^If you were doing what I was you wouldn't have the time or energy to say what other folks aren't doing.
Reading is fundamental.^^^
Pot, meet kettle.
Basically the white supremacist police union got her shook & making sure she's complicit in the cover up.

C/SI can't understand why a lot of you Cats think Renee Hall is under some fear and/or control from White Higher-Ups and shit.
GirlFriend is complicit because She WANTS to be.
Or else she wouldn't have gone for that job.
At the end of the day, she's a Black Female Cop who (probably) feels that Black Men (Hell. Blacks in general) ain't SHIT just as much as her White Cop Brethren.
Maybe we need to look at the longer term of this,
And stop celebrating whenever Sistas (and Brothers) like her get all these civil service, corporate positions and shit.
Because many don't have OUR best interests at heart.
And to be really REAL...
Too many of them absolutely HATE Black Men.
Wasn't a surprise to Me knowing that Botham Jean NEVER had a chance with Hall in charge.
Especially with her department's Smear campaign on him.
Hall hasn't even apologized to The Family for that one.
Which gives her a BIG FUCK YOU!!! in My book.
She was in uniform. They would have said that he should have known it was a cop.he should have...clearly that bitch was out for blood...better her than him
At the end of the day, she's a Black Female Cop who feels that's it's her job to protect cops. When Jacqueline Craig and her daughters were attacked and violently arrested by an El Paso cop after ignoring a white man that choked her son, the Black male El Paso police chief gave his officer a slap on the wrist 10-day suspension. What was his excuse?At the end of the day, she's a Black Female Cop who (probably) feels that Black Men (Hell. Blacks in general) ain't SHIT just as much as her White Cop Brethren.

You seem to be implying that Hall's hatred of black men is the reason she's protecting Guyger.No different from Hall's I would imagine.
