Congressional leaders are pushing back against the Trump administration's account of the killing of Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old U.S. citizen shot dead by federal officers during an immigration enforcement protest in Minneapolis Saturday.
Sen. Tina Smith, D-Minn., accused the administration of a "cover-up" Sunday and said the federal government is ignoring a court order that allows state investigators to access evidence in Pretti's killing.
