I am well aware of The Texas law on murder.
Laughing....which is why quoted Law.com and applying the 'malice' standard to Amber's case.....when Texas doesn't use the Malice standard?
Either you didn't know that Texas didn't use the Malice standard......in which case you're incompetent.
Or you did know that Texas didn't use the Malice standard, and intentionally tried to mislead us. In which case you're dishonest.
Either way, you're unreliable and an an utterly inadequate 'source' on the law.
The Texas definition of murder:
'1. Murder: You commit murder when you intentionally and knowingly take someone else’s life, or when you intend to commit an act that is clearly extremely dangerous to human life and in effect, causes death to another person. Murder is usually a felony of the first degree'
Amber was engaged in self defense not in an act of murder.
Says you, the same pseudo-legal incompetent that just tried to fallaciously apply the 'malice' standard to this case when Texas didn't use the Malice standard.
And the same pseudo-legal incompetent that laughably insisted that the jury was bound to the TORT standard of 'innocent trespass' which is used to determine civil liability. And NOT recognized in Texas civil law. Nor applied to Texas criminal homicides.
And yet after these two comic blunders on the BASIC application of Texas law, you're again trying to insist that your judgment supercedes the the judge, jury and prosecutors?
Laughing.....nope.
The Texas definition of murder is enough reason alone to appeal this miscarriage of justice to the U.S. Supreme ct.
Nope. As you've demonstrated repeatedly, you're legal judgment is meaningless. You don't understand jurisdiction, you conflate civil and criminal law, you insist that the jury is bound to requirements that don't even exist in Texas law. At every stage, you're clueless.
And your demonstrated incompetence certainly doesn't override the lawful judgment of a jury.I am well aware of The Texas law on murder.

Do you believe anytime a police officer in Texas kills someone it is murder?
The odds of that are very high when the dead person is not guilty of anything.
Since the legal expert avoids questions...perhaps you can stand in for him: Do you believe doctors performing abortions in Texas are guilty of murder.
Murder is a legal concept. Abortion is legal in Texas, so no.
There have been instances before of police officers going to the wrong address and killing a innocent person...none have ever been charged with murder.
Which is the issue. That has to change. That can no longer be simply excused away.
Yet....this case is very unique....perhaps the only case of a police officer thinking she is entering her own apartment but goes to anothers apartment by mistake and then as a result of what she perceives as an intruder in her apartment shoots and kills the innocent guy.
This case definitely nees to be appealed as the jury neglected to consider the state of mind of the defendant which is critical in a case of self defense.
Mens Rea
They considered it. It was a part of the case presented. They simply did not believe it an excuse. The person texting and driving didn't mean to kill anyone either. They are going to be charged with killing someone if their actions end up doing that.
Did you consider the Texas definition of murder?
