In an extraordinary #court filing, the top #federal #prosecutor in #Minnesota acknowledged Thursday that officials had “provided incorrect information” [lied] about a #shooting by an #immigration agent last month.
The prosecutor, Daniel N. Rosen, asked a judge to #dismiss charges against a man who was wounded in that shooting, as well as another man who had been accused of attacking the agent.

Rosen wrote that “*newly* discovered #evidence in this matter is materially inconsistent with the allegations” that #federal officials made in a charging #document & in courtroom #testimony.
“Accordingly, #dismissal with #prejudice will serve the interests of #justice,” wrote Rosen, who was nominated by #Trump to be #USattorney in #Minnesota.
