Amber Guyger is believed to be the second Dallas police officer charged with murder in the past 45 years. She faces up to life imprisonment if convicted.

Guyger has said she mistakenly entered the wrong apartment in her complex and shot a man she thought was a burglar. She was later arrested and charged with manslaughter.

Since taking office in 2016, Dallas County District Attorney Faith Johnson has indicted several police officers, and even secured a rare murder conviction.

An affidavit for an arrest warrant says the officer found the door ajar at what she thought was her own home. It says she saw a man inside the dark room and gave him orders that he didn't follow.
