Army Sergeant Daniel Perry was convicted of murder Friday stemming from an incident in which he shot dead Garrett Foster, an armed Black Lives Matter demonstrator.
An individual carrying an assault rifle, now known to be Garrett Foster, quickly approached the car and then motioned with the assault rifle for Mr. Perry to lower his window,” the soldier’s attorney said at the time of the incident.
A jury in Austin, Texas, has convicted an Army sergeant and Uber driver of murder after he shot dead an AK-47 wielding Black Lives Matter protester during the George Floyd riots in the summer of 2020. Daniel Perry, 37, said that he killed Garrett Foster, 28, in self defense.
