Jurors had the option of finding Guyger guilty of a lesser offense, manslaughter. However, they decided to convict her of murder and faces up to life in prison.

This case has sparked national attention after many found it suspicious Guyer testified she didn’t know she wasn’t entering the wrong apartment and subsequently shot and killed an innocent black man.
