Apologies for the auto-play video. The short version is that it was an electronic lock that was defective, allowing Guyger to enter. It doesn't sound like it was a smart lock like described in OPs article, just a normal key-card version.
I’ve been kind of a truther about this because no one stopped to think who was responsible for her getting in the wrong apartment - who is at fault for this. I’ve never seen an article acknowledging the fact that the shitty locks that this massive corporate landlord used directly enabled one of their tenants to be murdered.
Pretty sure smart locks were what allowed Amber Guyger to enter Botham Jean’s apartment.
E: not smart locks just hotel style electronic locks.
So they can't prevent a home invader from killing you while you watch TV then.
