The death has sparked protests in Minneapolis and drawn criticism from local and state officials, who have called for greater transparency and accountability. Demonstrations continued in the days following the shooting, with protesters demanding an independent investigation and the release of additional information about the encounter.  

The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division has declined to open a separate review into whether Good’s civil rights were violated, according to officials. That decision has prompted internal dissent, with several federal prosecutors resigning in protest over the department’s handling of the case.

The lawyers had reportedly been pushing the head of the division, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, to dispatch a DOJ team to Minneapolis to manufacture a civil rights case.
