Lee Merritt, the lawyer representing Jean's family, came into the building to investigate what led Amber Guyger, a Dallas off-duty cop, to shoot him dead.

"I went there to find answers to what happened," Merritt told Inside Edition. "I did not find anything that brings clarity."

Guyger claims that she thought she was entering her own third floor apartment, but that she had mistakenly entered John's on the fourth floor.

Merritt says the hallways and doors on every floor of the building may look similar, but objects like a potted plant in front of the police officer's door could be used to distinguish them. There are no plants near the victim's door.

In addition, Jean's apartment had a red doormat, while that of Guyger did not have a doormat.

After the shooting, Guyger said that she had found Jean's door ajar, but Merritt pointed out that the apartment doors had a "snap safe" system and were automatically closing.

Guyger has been arrested for manslaughter and is currently free on bail.
