The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office said it has sent what are known as Touhy letters to gain crime scene evidence from the shooting death of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross.

State prosecutors have formally demanded that the Trump administration turn over any evidence gathered by federal authorities after the shooting death of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross.

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty announced Monday that her office had served what are known as Touhy letters on the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security. The legal filing seeks a wide range of potential evidence from Good’s killing on Jan. 7 in south Minneapolis and gives a Feb. 17 deadline to respond.

The demand letters come as the county attorney — alongside the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office — continues to pursue an independent state investigation into Ross’ deadly use of force.

Sure, it may not work, because the feds haven't been following the rules. It's important to make it crystal-clear that they aren't following the rules, anyway.

The FEDS don't even follow FEDERAL warrants, subpoenas, etc.

That's just for the proles, silly goose
