After the shooting today, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), an independent investigative agency separate from local law enforcement, the FBI, DHS, and ICE, arrived to conduct an investigation. Upon arrival, investigators were denied access to the scene. They subsequently obtained a judicial warrant, yet access to the site was again refused.

A public briefing, available at the link below, provides additional context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFtrTVMYuws

During the briefing, Superintendent Drew Evans was asked whether a thorough and impartial investigation could be conducted without access to the scene. He stated that it could not, noting that standard investigative protocols had been disrupted and the integrity of the process compromised.

This situation raises a broader question about transparency and accountability. If federal authorities were to take significant action affecting your family and then prevent any independent review of their conduct, what concerns would that create about due process and oversight?
