North Dakota Man’s Impersonation of ICE Agent Leads to Charge Dismissal
Judge Kirsten Sjue dismissed the impersonating officials charge against Shane Al Randall, ordering the return of his phone and bond. The dismissal, following a prosecutor’s motion citing prosecutorial discretion, stemmed from an incident where Randall, falsely claiming to be an ICE agent, facilitated an inmate’s release from the Williams County Correctional Center. Jail staff subsequently realized the deception, leading to Randall’s arrest. The reasons behind the prosecutor’s decision remain unclear.
