Content warning: this video includes footage of two fatal shootings.
Jake Tapper and CNN have put substantial reporting into an 18-day window in Minnesota, covering the period between the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti during Operation Metro Surge. Hawk walks through the report and the buildup, roughly 3,000 federal agents deployed to Minneapolis, a city with about 600 police officers, following a viral story about daycare fraud that had already been investigated and prosecuted years earlier.
The accountability trail is the story. The FBI investigation that would normally follow a fatal shooting by federal officers was reportedly halted. The federal government withheld its evidence for seven months, turning it over to Hennepin County only in the days before Todd Blanche's confirmation hearing. Roughly 75 percent of the Minneapolis US Attorney's office resigned during this period, and more than half the prosecutions brought against protesters have since collapsed.
Hawk offers his own reading of the Pretti footage, noting Pretti was legally carrying, and argues the sequence suggests an accidental discharge during the disarm. He stresses these remain uncharged allegations. Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty now has the federal evidence, and Hawk expects charging decisions within six to eight months.
