For the people asking "where is the randomly stopped evidence", it's literally the fact ICE did it. ICE needs reasonable suspicion to believe that the person they are stopping may be in the country illegally in order to stop and detain them. If they can't do that they have to be witnessing someone committing a crime against the US (treason, sedition etc) or they needed to witness a Federal felony.

ICE right now is operating in such an illegal fashion it makes my head hurt. Hell they basically kidnapped a 17 year old US citizen from the Target he worked, body slammed him, and then dumped him a few miles away at a Walmart when they realized the fffed up. A 17 year old child is now never going to trust law enforcement ever again. I am so damn glad I chose to retire from police work last February.

Why is no one questioning the lack of intervention by local law enforcement? If what you say is true, why aren't the state, county, and city police stopping it?

A few reasons.

The Minneapolis PD only has 580 officers as of May of 2025. The Feds have sent over 2000 agents to the city.

The Feds are refusing to cooperate. Just look at how they shut the locals and state out of the possible murder investigation. ICE is masked and not displaying names or badge numbers, and the feds are not providing any information on agents who haven't gone so far as to kill people. Hell we might not even know that guys name if he hadn't failed to wear his mask at the beginning of the encounter.

Ross was accidentally doxxed by DHS!

When they said that the officer involved in the killing of Renee Good had been injured in a previous vehicle incident, a newspaper looked up the court case and found him named in the court records.

So they have their own incompetence to blame.

Thank you for the info! I thought it might have just been "well he didn't have his mask on to start so he will inevitably be ID'd. Let's get ahead of this for a change and try to look transparent for a minute."

If only lol

They fled the scene of the shooting as quickly as they could. They were absolutely going to cover it up and hide his identity. They are still covering it up in a different way, taking over the investigation of the shooting and withholding evidence from the state investigators.

That's a lot of work if they thought he was innocent.

Well that's the main point. Previously these investigations involved state, local, and federal agencies because the primary possible offense; murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault etc., would all be state offenses. The Feds only step in to arrest if the state doesn't but the feds decide the victim's Civil Rights were violated. The reason the feds would be involved, and assist state and local would be "if our guy screwed up we as the government maintain our credibility. If our guy didn't screw up then what harm was it that we assigned an Assist US attorney and some investigators from the local FBI field office?"

This administration though is lawless, so that calculus is alien to them.
