Fresh demonstrations were planned across the United States this weekend in the wake of the fatal shooting of a woman by an immigration officer in Minneapolis, as local officials slammed federal agencies for excluding them from the investigation.<\/p>\n
Protest organizers said they expected to hold more than a thousand weekend demonstrations following the killing of motorist Renee Good, 37, by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Officials in the midwestern state of Minnesota said their law enforcement agencies have been shut out of the investigation into the shooting.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A local prosecutor said Friday that federal investigators had taken Good\u2019s car and shell casings from the scene.<\/p>\n
The Trump administration has sought to paint Good as a \u201cdomestic terrorist,\u201d insisting that the agent who fatally shot her was acting in self-defense.<\/p>\n
Cell phone footage apparently taken by the officer who fired the fatal shots shows him interacting with Good as he approaches and circles her car, and her saying, \u201cI\u2019m not mad at you\u201d.<\/p>\n
After he passes in front of the car, another agent can be heard ordering Good to exit the vehicle before she tries to drive off and shots ring out.<\/p>\n
The agent filming the video can be heard saying \u201cfucking bitch\u201d at the end of the clip.<\/p>\n
The White House insisted the video gave weight to the officer\u2019s claim of self-defense \u2014 even though the clip does not show the moment the car moved away, or him opening fire.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not the time to bend the rules. This is a time to follow the law\u2026the fact that Pam Bondi\u2019s Department of Justice and this presidential administration has already come to a conclusion about those facts is deeply concerning,\u201d Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, a Democrat, told a briefing on Friday.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know that they\u2019ve already determined much of the investigation,\u201d he said, adding that the state\u2019s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, within its department of public safety, has consistently run such investigations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy not include them in the process?\u201d Frey said.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, US Vice President JD Vance said that the ICE officer, named in US media as Jonathan Ross, had \u201cabsolute immunity\u201d \u2014 a claim disputed by local prosecutors.<\/p>\n
Court filings seen by AFP showed that\u00a0in June 2025, Ross was dragged 100 yards (91 meters) along a road by a car driven by a man who was the subject of immigration enforcement activity.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the FBI, when the federal agencies, say they won\u2019t share evidence with the local authorities, the public can\u2019t trust that it\u2019s going to be a true, transparent investigation,\u201d said local Patrick O\u2019Shaughnessy, 43.<\/p>\n
Minnesota officials have said that local investigators were initially invited by the FBI to participate in the inquiry into the shooting of Good, but were subsequently blocked from taking part.<\/p>\n
Good was one of four people who have been killed by ICE since Trump launched his immigration crackdown.<\/p>\n
Good\u2019s wife Becca Good told local media that they had gone to the scene of immigration enforcement activity to \u201csupport our neighbors\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had whistles. They had guns,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Local prosecutor Mary Moriarty, the Hennepin County attorney, said \u201cour goal must be that a thorough investigation is completed at the local level\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe FBI currently has, for example, Ms Good\u2019s car, the shell casings and witness interviews\u201d.<\/p>\n
Moriarty unveiled an online evidence portal, calling for submissions so that all available leads could be compiled.<\/p>\n
The divide between local and federal authorities widened Friday when US Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins suspended the payment of $129.2 million in federal financial agriculture awards, according to a letter she posted on X.<\/p>\n
Federal authorities have openly clashed with Minnesota officials over allegations that Somali immigrants have committed large-scale fraud to extract public benefit funds, with Rollins accusing local officials of turning \u201ca blind eye\u201d to the problem.<\/p>\n
Protest action continued Friday with hundreds gathering at a federal facility that has become a focal point of anti-ICE demonstrations, with at least one detention seen.<\/p>\n
Federal immigration officers armed with pepperball guns and tear gas clashed with the noisy crowd.<\/p>\n
Several civil society organizations and advocacy groups, including the\u00a0American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), are planning hundreds more protests on Saturday and Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
