DALLAS — Newly unsealed court documents reveal Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murdering a Black Lives Matter protester, talked of killing people and shared racist memes over social media.
A Travis County judge unsealed the documents as the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles considers an unusual request from Gov. Greg Abbott to pardon Perry, an Army sergeant.
Perry’s posts included messages like “Black Lives Matter is racist to white people...It is official I am racist because I do not agree with people acting like monkeys.” And in 2019, Perry wrote it was “to [sic] bad we can’t get paid for hunting Muslims in Europe.”
