Officials; Administration Stopped Sharing Evidence

State officials say in court filings that the federal government has stopped sharing evidence with Minnesota authorities who are investigating the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal officers. Attorneys for the Justice Department argued this week that it’s within their discretion to decline to share information with state authorities. Minnesota officials sued President Donald Trump’s administration in March for materials they said they needed to investigate the shootings during Trump’s immigration crackdown in Minneapolis earlier this year. State prosecutors announced in July that the federal government had begun turning over key evidence in the cases. But Minnesota investigators said the transfer of evidence stopped soon after the July announcement.
