CBP Shoots Couple in Portland
“Oregon officials are launching their own investigation of a Portland incident where Customs and Border Patrol officers shot a couple during a vehicle stop. No video has yet emerged of the incident.”
So Oregon state officials can investigate a shooting by Federal agents. But Minnesota cannot? Why the discrepancy?

Jonathan Ross, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer identified by multiple news outlets as the federal agent who shot 37-year-old Renee Good in Minneapolis on Wednesday, is a veteran deportation officer in ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations division, according to sworn testimony from the federal district court in Minnesota obtained by WIRED. A member of a Special Response Team, ICE’s version of a SWAT team, he’s had duties as a firearms trainer and led teams drawn from multiple federal agencies including the FBI, Ross testified
He also served in Iraq before joining ICE
His trauma from last time occurred when he smashed the back window of a vehicle and reached inside. Then held on as the vehicle pulled away.

I was thinking the same thing. When you make wypipo afraid for their lives, across the country, the media take notice and then everybody takes notice. This event might impinge on the consciousness of even low-info white voters.

The retired ICE officer who broke down the shooting videos is a brave man. I hope he’s got really good security because he’s made himself a target for nutjobs.

Includes info on the couple who was shot - claim is they were members of Tren de Aragua game. No proof given, obviously.
It seems that keeping local oversight of incidents blocked is their new M.O.

Is there a law enforcement agency anywhere in the country that instructs officers to stand directly in front of a vehicle that they suspect may flee a stop? A vehicle that is running, with a driver at the wheel, in a tense, uncertain situation ripe for panic and misjudgment on the part of both the driver and officer?
