Minneapolis is reeling after an ICE agent fatally shot a woman on the city's south side Wednesday morning.
Minnesota's U.S. senators, Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, have sent a joint letter to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi urging her Department of Justice to include the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension into the FBI's investigation of the killing of Renee Good.
'It is critical there be a thorough, objective, and impartial investigation. That requires full cooperation with state investigators and local authorities,' the senators wrote. The senators noted the local-federal cooperation that occurred this summer in the investigations into the politically-motivated assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman, and the deadly mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church and School. 'As in those cases, state law enforcement and investigators can bring extensive expertise to this critical investigation,' the senators wrote. Klobuchar and Smith said transparency and collaboration are essential, especially in light of the Trump administration's narrative that directly conflicts with what multiple videos show in the deadly encounter between Good and ICE officer Jonathon Ross. 'The administration's decision raises serious questions about its objectivity, particularly after administration officials have made statements that conflict with the video and other evidence that has already become public,' the senators wrote. 'Therefore, we strongly urge you to reverse your decision and coordinate with state and local officials.'
