FBI Supervisor Resigns Over DOJ Blocking Civil Rights Probe in Renee Good Shooting
An FBI supervisor in Minneapolis, Tracee Mergen, resigned after Washington pressured her to discontinue a civil-rights inquiry into ICE Officer Jonathan Ross in the January shooting of Renee Good. Rather than pursue a probe of Ross, the DOJ focused on Good and her partner, prompting at least six senior Minneapolis prosecutors to resign in protest and leading to subpoenas of Minnesota Democrats as part of a broader immigration-enforcement crackdown and related political controversy.
