Prosecutors have dismissed at least nine cases that Amber Guyger investigated when she was still a Dallas police officer, months before she shot and killed Botham Jean in his home.  [Evening roundup]( 04/25/2019 By Wayne Carter Good Evening! Here is a look at the top headlines of the day. 🔎 Prefer the online view?

(File Photos) CRIME & COURTS [Drug suspects arrested by Amber Guyger get a pass, thanks to her murder case]( Prosecutors [have dismissed at least nine cases that Amber Guyger investigated]( when she was still a Dallas police officer, months before she shot and killed Botham Jean in his home. Dallas County prosecutors in one case wrote that they were seeking the dismissal because the fired officer was "indicted for murdering an innocent man in his own home," court records show. Four dismissed cases stem from the arrest of two men during a January 2018 traffic stop by Guyger and another officer. Three were drug charges. The fourth, unlawfully carrying a weapon, was also dismissed and the gun was returned. But prosecutors' motion to dismiss that case was not found in the court file. Judges have dismissed at least five additional cases at prosecutors' request since the shooting where Guyger was the arresting officer, court records show. But prosecutors did not reference Guyger in their motions to dismiss the cases. Most of those are also drug cases.
