GUILTY Larry Jenkins will spend the rest of his life behind bars after a Dallas County jury found him guilty Friday morning of murdering former professional basketball player Andre Emmett during an attempted robbery three years ago.
The final moments of 37-year-old Emmett’s life were captured on home surveillance cameras outside of his Old East Dallas condo.During closing arguments on Thursday, Assistant District Attorney Drew Taylor reminded jurors of the cruel and violent nature of Emmett’s death, having been robbed and shot while running away.
Jurors were also asked to consider the expert witnesses who said phone records and Facebook activity placed Jenkins at the location of the murder that night in 2019. Emmett’s family said he was a talented basketball player, but he was most proud of being a family man and father to two little girls, ages 2 and 3 at the time of his death.
