Jury sentences former Texas officer Roy Oliver to 15 years for shooting death of unarmed black teen
A jury sentenced former Balch Springs police officer Roy Oliver on Wednesday to 15 years in prison in the 2017 shooting death of high school freshman Jordan Edwards, who was riding in a car full of teens leaving a party.

Oliver testified that he fired on the car because it moved toward his partner, but his partner testified he didn't fear for his life and didn't feel the need to fire his weapon.

BREAKING: White Texas police officer found guilty of murder for fatally shooting black teen in car
Roy Oliver was convicted Tuesday in the death of 15-year-old high school freshman Jordan Edwards, who was in the passenger seat of a car leaving a house party when the officer opened fire in April 2017.

Oliver, who was fired from the Balch Springs Police Department in the Dallas suburbs after the shooting, testified last week that he felt he had no choice but to use deadly force.
