In the Jan. 18 weekend Eagle, there were two opposing viewpoints on the Renee Good murder in Minneapolis. Both were well written, but were based on personal feelings instead of the applicable law and correct facts.

The law to be enforced is found directly in the 4th Amendment to the Constitution for her apprehension (and in the 8th Amendment for treatment after such apprehensions). In my opinion, other Minnesota U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions repeatedly do not follow those laws, as later actions by agents against Aliya Rahman and ChongLy “Scott” Thao confirm.

Also, in an incident in June, the same ICE officer did not follow all of the law’s procedures, not to attempt to stop vehicle movement, and he was injured as a consequence. These activities confirm the faulty U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement training. The agent started to follow the 4th Amendment’s procedure by recording Good’s SUV license, but failed by shooting where innocents were downrange and he should have pursued the moving vehicle instead of attempting to stop it even by an attempt at shooting the SUV’s tires.
