Dallas Cop Amber Guyger 911 call after shooting Botham Jean

If this isn’t the most awful acting I’ve ever heard. Amber Guyger is only worried about herself and what she had done. She’s pretending to sound distress with all the fake heavy breathing. She knows these calls are recorded and her acting skills are just absolutely awful. And calling the victim bud? Come on! It’s so insulting. Botham Jean was in his own home and she murdered him for nothing.  Amber’s lies were all over the place….

First the door was locked and then unlocked, the room was dark, saw silhouette heading for her in dark apartment, he didn’t obey commands and then man swung open the door and she shot him. Justice must be served.

For the first time, the public can now hear the 911 call Amber Guyger made moments after she shot Botham Jean. WFAA-TV obtained a copy, which until now, not even the family has heard.

DALLAS — What was Amber Guyger thinking after she shot Botham Jean?

That’s the question Dallas has been asking since September when the fired police officer shot 26-year-old Botham Jean in his own apartment. Now, we know.

For the first time, the public can now hear the 911 call Guyger made moments after she shot Jean. WFAA-TV obtained a copy, which until now, not even the family has heard.

“I thought it was my apartment,” Guyger repeats 19 times on the recording.

“I’m going to lose my job,” she also says.

Jean’s death became a national controversy. Rumors and innuendo spread like wildfire on social media that Guyger knew Jean and that the shooting was no accident. The case ignited marches, protests and calls for Guyger to be arrested and charged with murder. Jean’s family and the public demanded answers.

As misinformation spread and enmity boiled over into the streets, police officials and the Dallas County District Attorney’s office refused to release the Sept. 6 recording – a window into Guyger’s state of mind – citing the ongoing criminal investigation.

On the call, Guyger sounds frantic, distraught and out of breath as it appears to dawn on her that she’s not in her apartment. She can be heard talking to Jean, telling him at one point, “I didn’t mean to. I didn’t mean to. I didn’t mean to. I’m sorry.”

On the night Jean died, Gugyer had just completed a nearly 14-hour work shift. Police officials also have refused to release records showing how many hours she worked that week.

Guyger, 30, was arrested on a charge of manslaughter three days after the shooting and was fired two weeks later. A grand jury indicted her on a murder charge in late November. The case is set for trial in September.

Jean and Guyger, who did not know each other, lived one floor apart – she on the third floor, he on the fourth. She lived directly below him.

Guyger, still in her police uniform, arrived at the complex and parked on the fourth floor. She then went to what she thought was her apartment, she told investigators. She also said she shot Jean thinking he was an intruder, according to her arrest warrant affidavit.

The affidavit says the apartment was dark and Guyger turned on the lights while on the phone with 911 after the shooting.

The 911 call spans 5 minutes and 38 seconds.

“This is an off duty officer,” Guyger tells the operator. “Can I get, I need to get EMS.”

“Do you need police as well or just EMS?” the operator responds.

“Yes, I need both,” Guyger says, heavily breathing.

When the operator asks her where she’s at, it sounds like she is checking the apartment number and realizes she’s not in hers.

“What’s going on?” the operator asks.

“I thought I was in my apartment and I shot a guy thinking he was, thinking it was my apartment,” Guyger says.

“You shot someone?” the operator asks.

“I thought it was my apartment. I’m [expletive],” Guyger responds. “Oh my God. I’m sorry.”

The operator then asks where Guyger was at the moment. Guyger tells her that she’s in the apartment with the man. The operator asks for her name.

“I’m Amber Guyger,” she says, sounding as if she’s becoming increasingly frantic. “I need, get me. I’m in.”

“We have help on the way,” the operator says.

“I know,” Guyger responds.

Just over a minute into the call, Guyger says, “I’m going to lose my job. I thought it was my apartment.” She tells the operator she’s going to need a supervisor.

Over and over throughout the call, she can be heard talking to Jean. Court records reveal that she “provided first aid.”

“Hey bud, hey bud, hey bud,” she tells Jean. “Come on.”

She whispers a curse word before again crying, “I thought it was my apartment.”

      No thought of killing an innocent man in his own home.

      just her job.

      ROT.IN.HELL.BITCH

  2. The night of the shooting, Guyger didn’t notice that Jean’s door had a red doormat in front of it, the official said. Her entrance didn’t have one.

  3. I know darn well she didn’t say anything racial?
