Multiple Department of Justice attorneys have resigned after leaders declined to open a civil rights investigation into last week’s deadly shooting of Renee Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in Minneapolis, departing as officials instead handed the inquiry to the FBI and excluded state authorities. Sources say four senior civil rights prosecutors quit in protest after Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon blocked their involvement; separate resignations by federal prosecutors in Minnesota were also linked to disputes over the DOJ’s handling of the case.
