Federal officers in Minneapolis to get body cameras 'effective immediately'
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that federal immigration agents in Minneapolis, Minnesota will receive body cameras immediately. Following the deaths of two US citizens, Alex Pretti and Renee Good, during a surge of federal immigration officers in the area, the DHS Secretary Kristi Noem stated that funding permitting, the body camera program will be expanded nationwide. The US Customs and Border Protection has placed two agents involved in Pretti's death on leave while the US Department of Justice is investigating the incident. President Donald Trump supports the use of body cameras for law enforcement, stating they generally tend to be good for law enforcement because people can't lie about what's happening.
