Harry Litman - The Department of Obstruction

For many weeks, we’ve been waiting for charges to emerge from Minnesota in the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by masked federal agents during Operation Metro Surge. The investigation has gone conspicuously quiet.

Now we know why.

Minnesota prosecutors filed a lawsuit Tuesday in D.C. federal court that lays out what’s been happening behind the scenes. The federal government has forced Minnesota to run the gauntlet just to obtain basic evidence to move forward: Good’s car, still shrink-wrapped and unexamined in an FBI storage facility in Brooklyn Center; shell casings; forensic evidence; and multiple statements in the wake of the shooting by federal officers.

It turns out that the feds not only have failed to cooperate with the state but have gone to great effort to stonewall the state’s requests, and they continue to do so.
