MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty on Friday called on members of the public to send any video or other evidence in the fatal shooting of Renee Good directly to her office, challenging the Trump administration's decision to leave the investigation solely to the FBI. Moriarty said that although her office has collaborated effectively with the FBI in past cases, she is concerned by the Trump administration's decision to bar state and local agencies from playing any role in the investigation into Wednesday's killing of Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis. Specifically, she said...

A prosecutor previously criticized for targeting law enforcement is asking to lead a probe into a shooting by an immigration agent in Minnesota. Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said Wednesday that she made the demand after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent fatally shot a driver who drove toward him during anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis. Conservatives blasted Moriarty over the past year for giving no jail time to a Somali rapist and a Tesla vandal and for attempting to prosecute a state trooper who shot a belligerent felon. We’re aware of the shooting at 34th and Portland. We’ve been...

Democrats like crime and fraud, especially when the criminals and fraudsters are from the party's preferred demographic groups. There's no other way to explain it, because Democrats are fighting very hard to protect Somali fraudsters in Minnesota, Washington, and elsewhere while enacting pro-crime, pro-criminal policies like cashless bail and other "criminal justice reform" legislation. In Minnesota, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty has said the investigations and fraud allegations are "far-right propaganda" and vowed prosecutions. In Washington, Attorney General Nick Brown also threatened independent journalists, writing on X, "My office has received outreach from members of the Somali community after reports...

David Zimmer told the appalling story of Adbimahat Bille Mohamed at AmericanExperiment.org. Briefly, Mohamed is a serial rapist. In 2017, he raped a 15-year-old girl. He was not charged in the initial investigation, but was later identified through DNA. In 2024, he raped another woman. These are some of the charges he faced:During the pre-trial phase of the May 2024 rape case, Mohamed’s DNA sample was entered into the DNA database. This test resulted in a match linking Mohamed to the 2017 rape of the 15-year-old girl in Minneapolis. The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office filed additional charges against Mohamed, adding...

Federal prosecutors on Thursday charged a Minneapolis man in connection with a string of sexual assaults including of a 15-year-old girl. In two of the cases, Abdimahat Bille Mohamed, 28, avoided prison as part of a recent plea deal with the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office and allegedly raped his latest victim in September while on probation. In a statement, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi blamed Minnesota’s “left-wing soft-on-crime policies” for putting innocent people at risk from a “Somali national.” In response, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said the Justice Department news release is a “clear attempt to politicize a sexual...

A Minnesota Department of Human Services employee, whose Tesla vandalism spree in Minneapolis was caught on video, is still employed by the state. Taxpayers are continuing to pay the salary of Dylan Adams, a fiscal policy analyst at the Minneapolis DHS. In March, Adams racked up more than $21,000 in damages during work hours as he walked around the city with his dog and keyed the electric cars. When asked about consequences Adams may have faced for his vandalism, a DHS spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Mail that 'Dylan Adams is a current employee.' The spokesperson also said, 'no public...

A shadowy for-profit company and its nonprofit counterpart provide free services to at least 40 far-left prosecutor offices, raising questions about whether it’s working on behalf of taxpayers or of donors who have essentially bought government. The Wren Collective is a shadowy group that emerged from a Cold War-era initiative aimed at promoting Soviet films in the United States. Its current iteration — funded by a former Enron executive and host of other leftist megadonors — claims that America’s “system of policing and mass incarceration is deeply flawed and intractably racist.” The group has intervened on specific criminal cases, written...

A progressive district attorney has declined to charge the state employee in Tim Walz-led Minnesota who was allegedly caught causing $20,000 damage by vandalizing half a dozen Teslas — a decision the local police chief ripped as the latest betrayal of victims. The suspected vandal, 33-year-old Minnesota government employee Dylan Bryan Adams, was allegedly spotted keying the vehicles and stripping their paint off while out walking his dog around the city. Despite what police believe to be evidence of Adams committing felonies, Hennepin County District Attorney Mary Moriarty will seek diversion rather than criminal charges. Adams was arrested a month...

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office has decided not to file criminal charges against a 33-year-old man accused of inflicting $21,000 in damage to six Teslas in Minneapolis over a few-day span. Instead, the office will file for Dylan Bryan Adams, of Minneapolis, to be entered into an adult diversion program meant for first-time, low level offenders. “Our main priorities are to secure restitution for the victims and hold Mr. Adams accountable,” said Hennepin County Attorney’s Office spokesman Daniel Borgertpoepping, in a statement. “As a result, we will file for pre-charge diversion to best facilitate both of those goals. This is...

A young man who received a controversial plea deal for his role in a fatal carjacking as a teen is now charged with fleeing police in a stolen vehicle, a felony. After rejecting an earlier plea deal, Judge Michael Burns in December sentenced Husayn Braveheart to time served after he pleaded guilty to attempted assault in the 2019 shooting death of Steven Markey, 39, in northeast Minneapolis. As part of the agreement, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty dropped a count of second-degree murder. Braveheart’s co-defendant Jered Ohsman, who was 16 at the time of the carjacking and admitted firing the...

@HennepinAtty @MaryMoriarty couldn't find a reason to hold the suspect Daquan Stephen Rogers, 29, in custody. He's been released without charges despite another open case involving brawling charged by Metro Transit last month and a history of cases involving transit crimes and assaults. Of course, he was tossed plea deals in the assault cases dismissing the violent crime charges. Free to go on his merry way. (Video at link, warning, every disturbing)
