LIVE: Former Dallas police Officer Amber Guyger testifies at murder trial of neighbor Botham Jean.
Prosecutors have used text messages she shared with Rivera to make the case that Guyger was not as fatigued and made plans to meet with Rivera on the night she said she mistakenly entered Jean's apartment when she got home just before 10 p.m.
At the heart of the trial is whether Guyger's use of force was reasonable when she opened fire inside Jean's apartment, believing it was her unit and he was an intruder. She has said she put her key into Jean's apartment door, but that it pushed open. Prosecutors have raised questions as to how Guyger could have missed sensory cues before entering Jean's apartment, including a red doormat that the outside of Guyger's unit didn't have.
The jury on Friday heard about Guyger's upbringing: She was the youngest of three children who was raised primarily by her mother in the Dallas suburb of Arlington. She knew at 6 that she wanted to be a police officer because"I wanted to help people. That was the one career I thought I could help people."
