Five days after an ICE agent fatally shot activist Renee Good, @frontline & @ProPublica filmed as tensions ran high in the Minneapolis neighborhood where Good had been killed. A protester threw a snowball. Federal agents responded with tear gas, pepper balls and pepper spray, hitting members of the reporting team in the face. “We see just use of excessive force after use of excess force,” said a former DOJ official who looked at the team’s footage.
