	Description:		Minnesota’s top federal fraud prosecutor has resigned along with other experienced attorneys at the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office. Through a spokesperson, First Assistant U.S. attorney for Minnesota Joe Thompson declined to discuss his decision to resign. But the move comes after top officials at DOJ pushed the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office to investigate the widow of Renee Macklin Good, who was killed by ICE agent Jonathan Ross last week. The Oglala Sioux Tribe in South Dakota has demanded the Department of Homeland Security release tribally enrolled citizens held by ICE, according to a statement released by the tribe. The tribe learned Tuesday the first names of the four men initially detained in Minneapolis. One has been released.
