    At least three prosecutors with the U.S. attorneyrCOs office in Minnesota
    have resigned over their concerns with the direction of the
    investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an
    Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, a person familiar with the resignations told NBC News on Tuesday.

    The person confirmed the resignations of Joseph Thompson, Melinda
    Williams and another attorney. The two named attorneys, Thompson and
    Williams, did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment by NBC
    News.

    The attorneys had felt pressure from Justice Department leadership, both
    in Minneapolis and in Washington, to investigate any ties to activist
    groups by Good and her widow, said a law enforcement official with
    knowledge of their decisions. The official said the prosecutors were
    also concerned about a decision to cut out state and local authorities
    from the federal investigation.

    Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said Thompson was a rCLprincipled public servantrCY
    who spent more than a decade in law enforcement in the state.

    rCLThis is a huge loss for our state,rCY Walz said of the resignations.
    rCLThis is the latest sign that President Trump is pushing nonpartisan
    career professionals out of the Department of Justice.rCY
