Soldier to be sentenced for murder in Texas protest shooting.
Perry, who was working as a ride-share driver the night of the shooting, was convicted in April in the 2020 shooting of 28-year-old Garrett Foster, who was legally carrying an AK-47 rifle through downtown Austin during a summer of nationwide unrest over police killings and racial injustice.
The board has already begun what legal experts say is a highly unusual and immediate review of the case on the orders of Abbott, who appointed the panel. Perry served in the military for more than a decade and was stationed at Fort Hood, about 70 miles north of Austin. He had just dropped off a ride-share customer when he turned onto a street filled with protesters.
