Minnesota Sues Trump Administration for Access to Evidence in Federal Shooting Cases
Minnesota officials filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, seeking access to evidence for their investigations into three shootings by federal officers earlier this year. The cases involve the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and the wounding of Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis, all during heightened immigration enforcement in the Minneapolis area. State leaders claim the federal government promised cooperation but then blocked investigators from key evidence like videos and reports. Local reactions have been strong, with protests erupting after the high-profile killings and Governor Tim Walz criticizing the feds for what he calls a lack of fairness. Federal officials argue they handle such reviews internally, with the Justice Department opening a civil rights probe into Prettis death but not Goods, citing no warrant for it. Homeland Security points to body camera footage showing self-defense in Goods case and says agents involved are on leave during joint reviews. This rare state-federal clash could reshape how investigations overlap, either empowering local probes or limiting cooperation moving forward as the lawsuit heads to court.
