Federal Judge Halts ICE Retaliation Against Minnesota Peaceful Protesters
TL;DR
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction stopping federal officers involved in Operation Metro Surge from retaliating against, detaining, or targeting peaceful protesters in the Minneapolis area, following the killing of Renee Good. The ruling also restricts actions like using pepper spray on observers and clarifies that following agents at a safe distance cannot justify vehicle stops, marking a win for the ACLU-MN and protesters advocating First Amendment rights.
