Top Trump administration officials, including FBI Director Kash Patel, intervened to stop federal agents from carrying out a civil rights investigation into an ICE agent’s fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis last month, fearing such a probe would undermine President Trump’s claims about Good’s death, an explosive new report claims.
The day of the shooting, Minnesota-based federal prosecutor Joseph Thompson allegedly sought a warrant to search Good’s vehicle for evidence, part of an effort he told colleagues would involve the state’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and investigate whether the shooting was justified or it violated the slain mother’s rights.
