Daniel Perry murdered Plano native Garrett Foster. Newly revealed posts and messages suggest he's a racist.
Greg Abbott is trying to pardon Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murder in the killing of an Austin BLM protestor in 2020.The undecided fate of convicted murderer Daniel Perry continues to twist and turn its way towards sentencing. Newly unsealed records on Thursday placed increased focus on the 35-year-old’s views towards Black Lives Matter protestors and minority groups.of murdering 28-year-old Garrett Foster in Austin.
Foster, an Air Force veteran, had approached the vehicle carrying an AK-47, legally, and was standing near the driver's side door out of which Perry shot. Perry was not shot at, nor injured in the incident. He drove away from the scene before reporting the shooting to police later, claiming he did so in self-defense.
Foster, a Plano native and Plano East Senior High graduate, and his fiancee, Whitney Mitchell, met while living in North Texas before moving to Austin. “I am working as swiftly as Texas law allows regarding the pardon of Sgt. Perry.” In the tweet, he included a note citing Texas’ “Stand Your Ground” law explaining his stance.
Predictably, the discourse on social media sites and cable news involving Abbott’s pardon intentions has split pretty cleanly along the same sort of ideological line that split those who opposed and supported the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse. In 2020, Rittenhouse shot three people, killing two of them, during protests and civil unrest in Wisconsin."This is not justice. This pardon undermines our justice system, the rule of law and law enforcement. It’s beyond reckless.
This is not justice. This pardon undermines our justice system, the rule of law and law enforcement. It’s beyond reckless. It will only embolden vigilantes and armed confrontations.
