Bun B was left in tears as he testified in court over an armed invasion of his home in 2019.

“Just the idea of seeing my wife in this state, hearing her voice in this state, Bun B said in the courtroom. “I mean I’m her husband, that’s my primary job, is protecting her, making her feel safe.”

In another video shared on ABC 13’s YouTube and by Fox 29 Houston, Bun B was overcome with emotion as he opened up about the lasting effects the robbery had on his wife Queenie, whose real name is Angela Walls.

“There are times when she gets closed off, She can’t communicate and I just get so angry all again cause she didn’t deserve it,” the artist said. “She didn’t ask for this.”

Per information obtained from the Houston Police Department at the time of the incident, PEOPLE previously reported that the home invasion took place after Queenie answered the door at 5:45 p.m. local time while expecting a delivery package from Amazon.

Jackson, who was 20 years old at the time, then forced his way into their home with a gun while fully masked.

Jodi Silva, a public information officer with the Houston Police Department, told PEOPLE at the time, “He was armed and demanded property. He attempted to rob them. So she pointed him to the direction of the garage and told him to take the car.”

After hearing the noise, Bun B ran from upstairs and exchanged gunfire with the intruder.

Due to Jackson eventually fleeing on foot, Bun B found him on the highway and ordered him to “unmask himself so he can identify him." The rapper continued by noting that he "lets the guy run off and contacts the police" to take the appropriate next steps afterward.

After Jackson went to a local hospital with a gunshot wound to his shoulder later that day, Bun B was able to pick the assailant out after being shown a series of photos of suspects.

Speaking at Thursday's sentencing hearing, the rapper who’s best known as one-half of the southern rap duo UGK, said that he found his wife shaking "furiously" the morning after the invasion.

“The next morning she got out of bed and went down to the kitchen and I heard her scream and I went down to see what was wrong,” he said. “She had her back turned and she was crying. I was like, ‘What’s wrong?’ And she was like, ‘I can’t.’ She was just shaking furiously.”

He went on to recall how she said she couldn't look at “those stairs,” adding that they realized “she couldn't even be in that house.”

According to Click2Houston, Jackson pleaded guilty to the home invasion in December 2019 after being charged with two counts of aggravated robbery and one count of burglary of a habitation.

“There are a lot of people that love Bun and hold him very dearly,” Bun B’s attorney, Charles Adams told local news channel KPRC 2 in May 2019. “I wouldn’t want to be Demonte Jackson walking the streets. I hope he stays in jail, but if he doesn’t stay in jail, he might want to get out of Houston.”
