The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension on Tuesday released the file from its investigation into the fatal shooting of motorist Philando Castile by St. Anthony police officer Jeronimo Yanez during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights, Minn., last July. Below is a transcript of the BCA's interview with Yanez after the shooting.

The interview became a point of contention during Yanez's trial. Prosecutors did not introduce that interview as evidence until cross-examining the officer on the stand. Judge William H. Leary III denied that request but allowed it to be referenced during Yanez’s cross-examination. During deliberations, jurors asked to see the interview transcript, but the judge again denied the request. Yanez was acquitted of all charges related to the shooting of Castile on Friday.
