Liar Cop's Testimony was In Accord with the Appetite of the White Jury Not with the Realities of Life.  From [HERE] The Minnesota race soldier cop who killed Philando Castile last year during an unlawful traffic stop has been acquitted by a mostly white jury (10 of 12) of all charges he faced over the gruesome death that was broadcast live.

Jeronimo Yanez shot Mr Castile after the black motorist informed him that he had a gun in his car. Mr Castile was licenced to have the weapon, and had been told to calmly inform officers of the firearm in those situations for his safety.

The Minnesota jury acquitted Mr Yanez of one count of second-degree manslaughter, and two counts of intentional discharge of a firearm that endangers safety. He faced the latter charges because Mr Castile's girlfriend and her four-year-old child were in the vehicle with him.

White Jury (13 out of 15 were white). The jury in the trial of St. Anthony Police Officer Jeronimo Yanez consisted of 15 individuals–nine men and and six women, with just two non-white people sitting on the bench (both were Black - however, they could have been alternates). Three of the jurors were dismissed as alternates at the trial's end and did not deliberate. The group was mostly white and skewed older. Profiles of the jurors are [HERE]

Mr Yanez was fired from his position on the police force following his acquittal.

The Cop's Two Versions of What Happened Cannot Both Be True. The day after the incident occurred Yanez explained to police officials that he was not sure whether Castile was reaching for a gun. He told the police investigators he never actually saw a gun [MORE] and [complaint PDF]. Yanez also inconsistently told a fellow St. Anthony police officer minutes after the shooting,  "And I don't know where the gun was, he didn't tell me where the [expletive] gun was and then it was just getting hinky, he gave, he was just staring ahead, and the I was getting [expletive] nervous, and then I told him, I know I [expletive] told him to get his [expletive] hand off his gun."

However, at the trial he said that he saw the gun and Castile had pulled it out. Something that Castile's girlfriend Diamond Reynolds denied. Castile also denied it; as his last dying words were,  'I'm not pulling it out,' on a video released by proscecutors during trial. On the video Reynolds also responded by saying, 'he's not pulling it out."  Apparently, the white jurors did not find Castile or Reynolds to be credible and believed whatever the cop told them. 

Specifically, last Friday Yanez, testified he fired his weapon because Castile had his hand on a gun, not his wallet and identification papers.

"I had no other choice. I didn't want to shoot Mr. Castile. That wasn't my intention," CNN affiliate WCCO reported. "I thought I was going to die." Then he started to cry on the stand. Apparently, the white jury believed him and sympathized with him. Yanez told them he was scared of a Black man.

Mr Yanez testified that he feared for his life when Mr Castile grabbed for his firearm, even though he was told not to.

"It's your testimony today that you saw Mr. Castile pull out an object?" prosecutor Rick Dusterhoft said Friday.

"It was a gun," Yanez said.

"You said he pulled it out?"

"Correct," Yanez said.

"And he said he wasn't (pulling it out)?"

"Correct, but it doesn't always mean that's what he was doing," Yanez said.

Previously, Yanez said

"When Roseville police officers arrived you never warned them there was a gun did you?" Dusterhoft said.

"No," Yanez said.

Previously Yanez inconsistently stated to police investigators, "Castille put his hand around something."  He said Castile's hand took a C-shape, "like putting my hand up to the butt of the gun." Yanez said he then lost view of Castile's hand. "I know he had an object and it was dark," he said. "And he was pulling it out with his right hand. [MORE]

Previously, Yanez said he thought or believed Castile had the gun in his right hand and he had "no option" but to shoot. [MORE] On the video Yanez is yelling, “Don’t pull it out!” However, a year later on the witness stand he said he saw a gun. Both versions can't be true folks. 

Prosecutors said Yanez is not credible.

“Based upon the evidence, we believe that Castile never removed, nor tried to remove, his handgun from his front right pocket, which was a foot deep,” said Ramsey County Attorney John Choi. Yanez’s partner also didn’t see a gun. [MORE] On cross examination the race soldier cop was asked,

"When Roseville police officers arrived you never warned them there was a gun did you?" 

"No," Yanez said.

Prosecutors say Yanez acted negligently in using deadly force and had not given clear instructions.

According to prosecutors, Officer Yanez asked Castile to produce his driver's license and proof of insurance. Castile first provided him with his insurance card.

Castile then, calmly, and in a non-threatening manner, informed Officer Yanez, 'sir, I have to tell you that I do have a firearm on me.'

Before Castile completed the sentence, Officer Yanez interrupted and calmly replied, 'okay' and placed his right hand on the holster of his own, holstered, gun.

Officer Yanez then said, 'okay, don't reach for it, then.'

Castile tried to respond but was interrupted by Officer Yanez, who said, 'don't pull it out.'

Castile responded, 'I'm not pulling it out,' and Reynolds also responded by saying, 'he's not pulling it out.'

Then Officer Yanez screamed, 'don't pull it out!' and quickly pulled his own gun with his right hand while he reached inside the driver's side window with his left hand.

Officer Yanez pulled his left arm out of the car, and then fired seven shots in rapid succession into the vehicle.

The seventh and final shot was fired at 9:06 and two seconds p.m. After the final shot, Reynolds frantically yelled, 'you just killed my boyfriend!'

Philando Castile moaned and uttered his final words: 'I wasn't reaching for it.'

To which Reynolds loudly said, 'he wasn't reaching for it.'

Before Reynolds completed her sentence, Officer Yanez again screamed, 'don't pull it out!' [he testifed that it was already out]

Mr Castile's mother spoketo the media after the decision, expressing anger and sorrow with the verdict.

"There has always been a systemic problem in the state of Minnesota, and me thinking,common sense that we would get justice. But nevertheless the system continues to fail black people", she said. "I am so disappointed in the state of Minnesota".

[In the system of white supremacy/racism you can be executed anytime, anyplace by a race soldier cop. Until this system is replaced, justice in courts can only be random or coincidental] 

Mr Yanez and his family, meanwhile, quietly slipped out of the courthouse and into a van before leaving without taking question. Jurors similarly declined to comment on the verdict.

Mr Castile's death last year was aflash point in the debate over police treatment of black Americans in the country, after a stringof videos showingpolice shootingunarmed black men had shocked the country and captured headlines. Like those shootings and deaths, Mr Castile's was caught on tape and sparked widespread protest. Unlike many of them, his was posted live on Facebook by his girlfriend, who was in the passenger seat of the car.

The video capturing Mr Castile's death is gruesome. In it, he can be seen gasping for air and slumped over to the right of his seat. Mr Yanez is seen with his gun drawn and pointed at him through the window. Writhing in apparent pain, Mr Castile's white shirt is stained deep red with blood from the five rounds he was hit with.

That video sparked protests around the country, and renewed charges that racial bias persists in America's police force. The vast majority of police officers who have killed unarmed or innocent black men have not been prosecuted for those actions, or have been acquitted.
