ICE Officers Investigated for Lying Under Oath in Minneapolis Shooting
Federal authorities have opened a criminal investigation into two immigration officers who allegedly lied under oath regarding the shooting of a Venezuelan man in Minneapolis. Video evidence reportedly contradicts the officers’ sworn testimony, leading to the launch of a joint probe with the Justice Department. As a result, all charges against the two Venezuelan men involved have been dropped, and the officers remain on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation. This development follows other recent incidents where federal immigration agents’ accounts have been questioned by video evidence and eyewitness testimony.
