On Tuesday, investigators released dashcam video footage of the fatal police shooting of Philando Castile. The clip's release comes just days after Yanez was cleared of second-degree manslaughter, a decision that was greeted by protests around the nation.
But Reynolds has said that Castile was merely grabbing for his license when he was shot by Yanez.
Yanez: "OK, don't reach for it then". "Don't pull it out".
From there Yanez pulled out his gun and left off a number of shots directly into the vehicle. Castile's girlfriend, Diamond Reynolds, can be heard screaming in the background. Reynolds's 4-year-old daughter was in the backseat. This footage overlaps with what we saw past year, when Diamond Reynolds started filming for Facebook Live as Castile was dying.
Mr Yanez was seen approaching Mr Castile's white sedan while another officer stood near the passenger's side.
Yanez: Don't pull it out.
Others interview Yanez, who shouts obscenities repeatedly.
Kauser would later say that he was "absolutely" surprised when Yanez opened fire.

The biennial Paris Air Show started on Monday, featuring civilian and military aviation behemoths competing for contracts. Both Airbus and Boeing have been forced to cut production rates of their biggest planes because of demand softness.
"And then I lost view of it. Cuz he kept canting his shoulder and then I believe I told him again, I can't remember, don't do it". He added, "I don't know where the gun was".
Seconds later, Yanez testified Castile's right arm dropped down at his side. The recording includes a conversation Yanez then had with his supervisor, St. Anthony Police Officer Tressa Sunde.
Actually if we did say more, it emulate exactly what Castile's mother, Valerie, said in her "f*ck the police" rant on Facebook Live after Yanez's not guilty verdict was announced.
"The video does not show images that might have been essential for jurors to consider: a full view of the front seat of Mr. Castile's vehicle, which would have showed his hands - and what he was reaching for - just before the shooting", Mitch Smith wrote for the New York Times. He just had somethin' uh his hands and he, the first words that he said to me were, some of the first words he said is that he had a gun. He then unholstered his gun and pushed it into the vehicle.
"Do you want to know what to do when an officer stops you?" Bekuh Sibet, a 29-year-old waitress from nearby Richfield, said it was obvious to her from the video that Castile was complying.
At trial, radio calls showed Yanez said he was going to stop a auto to check IDs because two occupants look like armed robbery suspects.
"No, no, no", Terrill said after viewing the video. "Please, Jesus, no", she is heard wailing.
