Federal judges have dismissed at least nineteen cases against Minnesotans accused of assaulting federal agents — including 25-year-old Christina Rank, a school employee detained after her car collided with an ICE vehicle. Rank claims she was confused and asked if the blacked-out SUV was ICE, then told them to leave the school grounds. Security footage supports her version, showing the ICE vehicle hitting hers. Agents surrounded her, broke a window, and detained her — while bystanders urged them not to use chemical agents as children arrived. Defense argued video disproved the agents’ account, and prosecutors later dropped charges, admitting insufficient probable cause. The same agent, Special Agent Richard Berger, submitted affidavits in eleven other dismissed cases — with one judge questioning his credibility for lacking firsthand knowledge.
