A Texas judge has denied a request for a new trial for a U.S. Army sergeant convicted of killing an armed protester during a Black Lives Matter march.
FILE - This booking photo provided by the Austin, Texas, Police Department shows U.S. Army Sgt. Daniel Perry. Perry was convicted of murder for fatally shooting an armed protester in 2020 during nationwide protests against police violence and racial injustice, a Texas jury ruled Friday, April 7, 2023.
A jury unanimously voted to convict Perry on April 7. The verdict prompted outrage from prominent conservatives including former Fox News star Tucker Carlson, who called the shooting an act of self-defense and criticized Abbott on the air after he didn’t come on his show. The governor has not said publicly how he came to his conclusion. It is not clear when the parole board will reach a decision on Perry’s case.
