The sentencing of Kim Potter, who was convicted of manslaughter in the death of Daunte Wright, was overshadowed by a prison photo that showed her smiling widely.

The attorney for Potter said that no disrespect was intended and that Potter was doing his job.

As she addressed the court, she brought up the mug shot. Potter said she confused her gun for her stun gun when she shot Wright. A jury found her guilty.

During the trial, Potter never looked at the Wright family as they passed in the hallway, and when she testified, she was told how to get sympathy from the jury.

How do you show remorse when you smile in your mug shot? Is it possible that after taking my son's life? How do you say you're sorry without tears?

Damik Bryant called the mug shot painful and urged the judge to impose a strong sentence.

The defense attorney responded to the Wright family's anger.

He said there was no disrespect intended to the booking photograph. It was in response to the prison's request, and not meant to be disrespectful.

Potter apologized to the Wright family and told them that she didn't believe them.

Potter apologized for breaking the mother's heart.

Potter is not black. Wright, who was black, was killed after Brooklyn Center officers pulled him over for having expired license tags.

Potter was sentenced to two years by the judge, well below the prosecutors request.
