After days of emotionally charged testimony, jurors came back on Thursday with a guilty verdict of manslaughter.
However, several people were not content with the verdict. They wanted Dean to be convicted of the more serious charge of murder. Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker released a statement saying, "Today's verdict provides a measure of justice, though it does not change the fact that a tragedy occurred that should have never happened. This tragedy for me has always been about Atatiana Jefferson – about her life as a daughter, sister, and aunt, and her lasting legacy. Many people in our community are hurting, and we must come together with compassion and grace.
