Amber Guyger, the former Dallas police officer charged with killing Botham Jean in his own apartment, missed numerous signs indicating she was not on the right floor or at the right apartment the night of the shooting, a prosecutor said Monday. The fourth floor of the garage where she parked after her 13.5-hour shift was open air, unlike her parking area on the third floor, Jason Hermus, a prosecutor with the district attorney's office, told jurors. She failed to notice a skylight, a neighbor's decorative planter, Jean's red doormat and differences in the hallways, Hermus said. Once she opened the door to Jean's apartment, he continued, she didn't notice other differences, including a missing table, clutter on the counter and the aroma of marijuana, the prosecutor said. Jean had smoked marijuana to help treat his ADHD after he stopped taking his prescribed medication, which had an adverse effect on him, his sister told jurors.

<strong>"9 to 5" </strong>Rotten Tomatoes editor Jacqueline Coley describes this 1980 workplace comedy "as a #MeToo movie before the #MeToo movement." Starring Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda as secretaries who kidnap their sexist boss and revamp the business with an eye toward equality, "9 to 5" feels just as relevant today as it did nearly 40 years ago.<strong> Where to watch: </strong>Amazon Prime Video (rent/buy); iTunes (rent/buy); Google Play (rent/buy)
