The use of a chemical irritant by U.S. Border Patrol Cmdr. Greg Bovino is among 17 instances of "potential unlawful behavior" by federal agents during Operation Metro Surge currently being investigated for criminal charges, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said Monday.
At a news conference on March 2, Moriarty announced the creation of the Transparency and Accountability Project [TAP], which will give citizens the ability to submit to the Hennepin County Attorney's Office any evidence of behavior by federal agents that might have been unlawful.
The project will be staffed by county prosecutors and a civilian investigator and is already investigating 17 incidents by federal agents.
That includes Bovino, who for several weeks served as the face of Operation Metro Surge for the Trump administration before being removed and replaced by White House border czar Tom Homan following the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents.
