A jury has sentenced former Fort Worth police officer Aaron Dean to 11 years, 10 months and 12 days in prison for the 2019 killing of Atatiana Jefferson, a Black woman. A jury found Dean, who was initially indicted on a murder charge, guilty of manslaughter last week for fatally shooting Jefferson through the rear window of her Texas home. Dean faced up to 20 years in prison, but jurors also had the option of sentencing him to probation.
