Six Federal Prosecutors Resign Over Justice Department's Handling of Minnesota ICE Shooting

Six federal prosecutors, including Trump appointee Joseph H. Thompson, resigned from Minnesota's U.S. Attorney's Office following the Justice Department's refusal to open a civil rights investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent. The resignations also protested the department's push to investigate Good's widow and its exclusion of state officials from the shooting inquiry. The departures raise concerns about the handling of both the shooting and related fraud investigations in Minnesota.
