Joe Thompson resigns as US Attorney and Jordan Addison really can't get out of his own way.Six federal prosecutors, including Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson, resigned Tuesday amid mounting pressure to investigate the widow of Renee Good, the New York Times reports.The Department of Justice pressed for a criminal investigation into the actions of Renee Good’s widow on the day she was shot and killed by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, according to the report. Good’s wife was seen on video engaging with Ross before the shooting, but none of her actions in the widely shared video appeared to be illegal.Harry Jacobs, Thomas Calhoun-Lopez and Melinda Williams were also among those who resigned on Tuesday, according to the Times. Jacobs had been overseeing the U.S. Attorney’s Office’s investigation into fraud and Calhoun-Lopez was the Chief of the Violent and Major Crimes Unit, the Times reported.Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is once again in legal trouble.Just two weeks after the end of Minnesota’s season, the 23-year-old was arrested Monday morning in Florida and is charged with misdemeanor trespassing.The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office says Addison was arrested by Seminole Indian Police at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino at around 3:45 a.m. He was booked at around 7:30 a.m. and was released on $500 bond at about 2:40 p.m. local time.Further details about the incident weren’t immediately available.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Good on Wednesday in Minneapolis is Jonathan Ross, according to court documents and accounts from federal officials.Ross shot into Good’s car while she was driving away from the site of an ICE operation near Portland Avenue and East 34th Street. U.S. government officials have labeled Good as a “domestic terrorist” who attempted to strike and kill ICE officers.During Thursday’s White House press briefing, Vice President JD Vance said Ross “might have been a little nervous” because of an incident last summer in which he was dragged by a vehicle and needed upwards of 30 stitches.Vance’s description of Ross’ injuries matches with an encounter that took place in Bloomington on June 17.Court documents detail the injuries an ICE agent suffered in the course of attempting to stop Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala, who prosecutors say was in the country without legal immigration status and had a previous conviction of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct.An exhibit list describes photos of the injuries as belonging to “Officer Ross.” A jury trial notice lists “Jonathan Ross” as the federal government’s first witness who testified in that trial.During the stop, Ross ordered Muñoz-Guatemala to get out of the car or he would break the window, a criminal complaint states. When Muñoz-Guatemala didn’t comply, Ross broke the rear driver’s side window and attempted to reach in and unlock the front driver’s side door. Muñoz-Guatemala put the car in drive while Ross’ arm was in the broken window, and he was dragged “approximately 100 yards” down the street.According to court documents, one cut to Ross’ right arm required 20 stitches; he received 13 more stitches for a gash on his left hand; and he suffered scrapes to his knee, elbows and face. A case brief filed five months after the initial indictment stated he needed 50 or more stitches for treatment.Last month, a jury convicted Muñoz-Guatemala of one count of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous and deadly weapon. He has yet to be sentencedOne law enforcement official confirmed to ABC News that Ross has 10 years of experience and is a Minneapolis-based member of ICE’s special response team, which is deployed for high-profile and tactical situations.“He’s an experienced officer that has served a number of years, and we recognize he acted according to his training, and we expect that all of the policies and procedures of review will be exactly that he acted appropriately to protect his life and the life of his colleagues and fellow law enforcement officers that were there,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said of Ross during a news conference held Thursday morning in New York.Noem and DHS officials say the officer was taken to the hospital because he was hit by Good’s vehicle. However, bystander video of the shooting does not appear to show any serious contact, and the shooter was up and walking the entire time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Mike has a few restaurant recommendations for Kristi Noem and the ICE team in town today!!The federal Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday that Secretary Kristi Noem was in the Twin Cities, as a federal immigration crackdown continues.The agency posted a video to social media on Tuesday morning, showing Noem accompanying federal agents as they detained a man.The agency and Noem, in separate social media posts, labeled the video as being taken in Minneapolis — but it appeared to show the operation taking place at a building on Payne Avenue in St. Paul.DHS said the man is from Ecuador and is in the U.S. illegally, and that he’s wanted for murder and sexual assault. Noem said that warrant is from Ecuador, and said he was also convicted of robbery and extortion. DHS and Noem did not provide further details on those cases.It was not immediately clear how long Noem would be in the Twin Cities.It’s now been more than a month since federal officials announced an immigration operation targeting the Twin Cities. The agency has previously said that it’s made hundreds of arrests.Gov. Tim Walz, who ended his bid for a third term Monday, sharply criticized the federal enforcement effort, raising concerns about both the scale of the operation and the lack of coordination with state officials. “We have a ridiculous surge of apparently 2,000 people not coordinating with us that are for a show of the cameras,” Walz said. “Why 2,000 folks? What are they coming to do? Do they want to coordinate with us?”MPR News contacted both ICE and the Department of Homeland Security to confirm the number of agents being deployed to Minnesota. DHS responded with a statement from Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, saying, “While for the safety of our officers we do not get into law enforcement footprint, DHS has surged law enforcement and has already made more than 1,000 arrests of murderers, rapists, pedophiles, and gang members.”Walz said the increased ICE presence is creating fear among immigrant communities, particularly communities of color. “What he's [Trump] doing to the Somali community is absolutely unconscionable,” Walz said, adding, "If you want us to fix fraud, come and help us do that. They're not interested in that.” Walz said he views the federal action as part of a broader political attack on Minnesota. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
