Minnesota BCA 'Reluctantly' Withdraws from Fatal ICE Shooting Probe After FBI Limits Access
Do state investigators lack jurisdiction, or is the FBI orchestrating a cover-up?

The Spin
Democratic narrative
It's difficult to rule out federal authorities orchestrating a cover-up since they're blocking Minnesota investigators from accessing evidence in Good's killing. The FBI's reversal to exclude the state's BCA from the probe undermines any chance of an independent investigation and violates Minnesota's jurisdiction to investigate a resident's death on their own streets. Without state access to witnesses and evidence, the investigation lacks credibility and transparency.
Republican narrative
The ICE officer acted in clear self-defense when Good accelerated her vehicle toward him after obstructing a lawful enforcement operation, with video evidence showing she left him no choice but to discharge his weapon — a tragedy attributable to those encouraging disruption of immigration laws and violence against officers. The FBI's exclusive leadership in the subsequent investigation appropriately maintains federal authority, prevents jurisdictional conflicts with state agencies, and ensures a uniform, efficient and unbiased probe that safeguards sensitive national security details.
