haven’t seen people talking about Yerkoy Shuler, so I’m going to make a post about him.
On June 13, in Winston-Salem NC, a young Black man named Yerkoy Shuler was murdered by WSPD during a traffic stop. The pigs pulled him over and said his behavior was “erratic” and then claimed he reached into his vehicle (something that would’ve literally been required for him to do to get any documents they would’ve asked for??????). It was revealed that after just a short 60 seconds of being detained in the pig’s car, he passed out due to a so-called “medical episode”, and later he died.
Yerkoy was a loving and bright person who deserved the chance to keep going home to his beautiful daughter every night. he deserved to live a full life of memories and joy, and that was taken from him by pigs from the WSPD. Tell me, how does one just mysteriously suffer a vague “medical episode” at the same time as being detained by cops during a traffic stop? how does one just happen to pass out and die after 60 seconds in a cop car, yet somehow there is mysteriously no information on this so-called “medical episode”?
below is a photo of Yerkoy with his daughter. Yet another beautiful child whose parent has been stolen by racist police violence. Please keep Yerkoy and his family in your thoughts. There haven’t been many updates on the murder yet, but his family highly suspects that his death is the result of a hate crime at the hand of cops.

His daughter, a young girl wearing a white shirt with a large white bow in her hair, is sitting on his lap. They are both smiling. End ID.]
Also, please keep Tamir Rice and his family in your thoughts as today, he would’ve turned 22.
Rest in power Yerkoy and Tamir.
