Minneapolis federal agents to wear body cameras starting now

TL;DR Summary
DHS says federal immigration officers in Minneapolis will start wearing body cameras immediately, in response to backlash over two citizens’ deaths during a federal immigration surge; one death (Alex Pretti) has been ruled a homicide and DOJ opened a civil rights investigation. The involved agents wore cameras and are on leave. The program is planned to expand nationwide once funding is available, set against ongoing budget fights and a partial government shutdown.
