Philando Castile’s girlfriend serves lawsuit on deputy who tweeted legal settlement would be used for crack cocaine


The girlfriend of Philando Castile initiated a defamation lawsuit this week against a Rice County Sheriff’s deputy who tweeted that a settlement she received would be “gone in 6 months on crack cocaine.”

Previously, the cities of St. Anthony and Roseville agreed to $800,000 in settlements to Diamond Reynolds, who live-streamed the immediate aftermath of the fatal shooting of Castile in Falcon Heights by a St. Anthony police officer in 2016.

After the settlements were publicized in November 2017, Tom McBroom wrote on Twitter, “She needs to come off County and State Aid now that she has some cash” and followed up with the comment about cocaine, according to the lawsuit Reynolds served on McBroom Tuesday.

In addition to being a deputy, McBroom is the mayor of Elysian, east of Mankato. Neither McBroom nor his attorney, who represented him in his appeal of his demotion from sergeant, could be reached for comment Friday.

1. Respect authorities? Hell no!

You often cannot tell the difference between cops and crooks. There is no honor among thieves. Even when they wear a uniform. Disgusting. Watch the murder video again if you can stomach it. The young man had no chance at all. No soap can clean that filthy thug cop.
