Ex-Dallas police officer Amber Guyger indicted for murder
Grand jury returns murder indictment against ex-Dallas police officer Amber Guyger in the death of Botham Jean.

Amber Guyger, the Dallas police officer who was fired earlier this year following the fatal shooting of her black neighbor inside his apartment, was indicted by a grand jury Friday on a murder charge, according to court records.

Guyger was arrested and initially charged with manslaughter in September in connection with the shooting of 26-year-old Botham Jean, a native of the Caribbean island nation of St. Lucia who was employed at the accounting and consulting firm PwC in Dallas.

The online records from Dallas County were posted ahead of a news conference in which authorities announced the decision of the grand jury.
