about

Another one that went viral, another useless murder from a minor road violation, filmed by his partner with their daughter sitting in the backseat.

Truly one of the most tragic stories of the millennium.

From Wikipedia:
After being asked for his license and registration, Castile told Officer Jeronimo Yanez that he had a firearm, to which Yanez replied, "Don't reach for it then", and Castile said "I'm, I, I was reaching for..." Yanez said "Don't pull it out", Castile replied "I'm not pulling it out", and Reynolds said "He's not..."

Yanez repeated "Don't pull it out" and then shot at Castile at close range seven times, hitting him five times. Castile died at 9:37 p.m. at Hennepin County Medical Center, about 20 minutes after being shot.

(He was reaching for his driver's licence to comply with the law.)

Reynolds posted a live stream video on Facebook in the immediate aftermath of the shooting, which prompted the incident to achieve national notoriety. There were local and national protests, and five months after the incident, Yanez was charged with second-degree manslaughter and two counts of dangerous discharge of a firearm. He was acquitted of all charges on June 16, 2017 in a jury trial, and was immediately fired by the City of Saint Anthony.
