Minnesota doubles-down on ICE shooting investigation despite Trump admin

Minnesota doubles-down on ICE shooting investigation despite Trump admin

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty on Friday urged the public to send any video or evidence of the fatal shooting of Renee Good directly to her office, despite the Trump administration assigning the investigation solely to the FBI.

Why It Matters

The FBI has barred Minnesota law enforcement from joining the investigation or reviewing key evidence in the fatal shooting, asserting full federal control over the case.

Local prosecutors said they are weighing legal options as Gov. Tim Walz urged federal officials to reconsider, warning that early statements from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem defending the agent could undermine confidence in the probe’s fairness.
