Minnesota officials say federal government stopped sharing evidence in Good and Pretti shooting probes
Photo: The Guardian USMinnesota officials said in recent court filings that the federal government has stopped sharing evidence with state authorities investigating the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal officers. The state sued the Trump administration in March for access to materials it said it needs to investigate the shootings independently. Good, 37, was shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer as she drove her car away from a protest in January. Pretti, also 37, was shot dead by a Border Patrol agent as he went to help a fellow protester. Both were US citizens. ICE and Customs and Border Protection are part of the Department of Homeland Security. Good's family sued over her death earlier this month.
