BREAKING: Former Fort Worth police officer who shot and killed Atatiana Jefferson has been indicted on murder charge.
In the week after Jefferson's death, Tarrant County prosecutors said they had enough evidence to ask for the grand jury indictment, and said in a statement"we will prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law."
"Had the officer not resigned, I would have fired him for violations for several policies, including our use of force policy, our de-escalation policy and unprofessional conduct," Police Chief Ed Kraus told reporters. Jefferson had been babysitting her 8-year-old nephew inside and playing video games. According to police and body camera footage, Dean failed to identify himself before firing his weapon, hitting Jefferson.The bodycam video released publicly shows the perspective of an officer outside the home, peering into a window using a flashlight and spotting someone inside standing near a window and telling her,"Put your hands up — show me your hands." A single shot is fired seconds later.
