Greg Abbott said Saturday that he is seeking to pardon a U.S. Army sergeant who was convicted of murder in the 2020 fatal shooting of an armed protester during nationwide protests against police violence and racial injustice.<\/p>\n<p>Abbott tweeted that because the state constitution limits him to a pardon only on a recommendation by the state Board of Pardons and Paroles he is asking the board to recommend a pardon and to expedite his request in order to pardon Sgt. Daniel Perry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI look forward to approving the board&#8217;s pardon recommendation as soon as it hits my desk,\u201d Abbott wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Perry was convicted Friday by a Travis County jury of fatally shooting 28-year-old Garrett Foster during a protest in Austin. He faces up to life in prison when sentenced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTexas has one of the strongest &#8216;Stand Your Ground&#8217; laws of self-defense that cannot be nullified by a jury or a progressive District Attorney,\u201d Abbott said.<\/p>\n<p>A phone call to District Attorney Jos\u00e9 Garza&#8217;s office on Saturday was not answered.<\/p>\n<p>Perry\u2019s attorneys argued that the shooting was self-defense as Foster approached Perry\u2019s car with an AK-47 rifle. Prosecutors said Perry could have driven away before firing his revolver and witnesses testified that Foster never raised his rifle at Perry.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>No Score<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/centurylink.net\/news\/read\/category\/news\/article\/the_associated_press-texas_gov_seeks_to_pardon_army_sergeant_convicted-ap?sc_cid=webmailpo\">CenturyLink<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Stand by, heavy seas ahead.

They complied, and the gunman tried to get away, but the car didn&#8217;t work.<\/p>\n<p>The owner of the store exited the business to try and see which way the assailant was walking.
