The president of the NAACP's Tri-East chapter says current Balch Springs police officers need an outside review.
"Officer Roy Oliver snuck through some kind of way so we don't know how many other officers out of their 30-man post done snuck through," chapter president Henry Brown said.
On Wednesday, Oliver, a former Balch Springs officer, was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the murder of Jordan Edwards. Oliver's attorneys have said he planned to appeal.
Brown and other NAACP members said they would like for members of the Balch Springs Police Department to undergo an outside review that would look at their mental health and backgrounds.
"We just want more accountability from the Balch Springs Police Department," Brown said.
NBC 5 reached out to the Balch Springs Police Department for comment but the department has so far not replied.
