The feds are warning shoppers to steer clear of cans of potentially tainted Genova Yellowfin Tuna that were mistakenly shipped this week to six grocery store chains in nine different states. The suspect cans were part of a larger recall of tuna products last February after Tri-Union Seafoods learned that some of the “easy open” pull tab lids were defective, the Food and Drug Administration said in a statement. That defect could cause the cans to leak or become contaminated “with clostridium botulinum, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning,” the agency warned. But for reasons unclear, these cans of quarantined tuna were recently “inadvertently shipped by a third-party distributor,” the FDA said. “Consumers should not use the product even if it does not look or smell spoiled,” the FDA warned. “Consumers feeling unwell should seek immediate medical attention.” The chains that received the suspect shipments include Meijer stores in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin, and Giant Foods stores in Maryland and Virginia. The recalled tuna was also shipped to Safeway, Albertsons, Vons, and Pavilions stores in California.

A May 2025 internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement document shows that the agency told officers and agents they can forcibly enter homes of people subject to deportation without a warrant signed by a judge. The memo, dated May 12 and which reads that it is from ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, was shared with U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., by two whistleblowers. It says that ICE agents are allowed to forcibly enter the home of a person using an administrative warrant if a judge has issued a “final order of removal.” Administrative warrants permit officers and agents to make arrests and are different from judicial warrants, which a judge or magistrate signs allowing entry into a home. Lyons notes in the document that detaining people “in their residences” based solely on administrative warrants is a change from past procedures. “Although the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has not historically relied on administrative warrants alone to arrest aliens subject to final orders of removal in their place of residence, the DHS Office of General Counsel has recently determined that the U.S. Constitution, the Immigration and Nationality Act, and the immigration regulations do not prohibit relying on administrative warrants for this purpose,” the memo reads. The memo says that agents may “arrest and detain aliens” in their place of residence who are subject to a final order of removal issued by an immigration judge, the Board of Immigration Appeals, or a U.S. district or magistrate judge. The memo says under general guidelines that officers and agents using a method called Form I-205 must “knock and announce” and that “in announcing, officers and agents must state their identity and purpose.” The Associated Press first reported on the document Wednesday.

Billions in his tax and spending cuts bill are paying for it Minnesota Jan 20 U.S. citizen says ICE took him from his Minnesota home in his underwear after warrantless search Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said in a statement that immigrants in the country illegally who are served administrative warrants or I-205’s, which are removal or deportation warrants, “have had full due process and a final order of removal from an immigration judge.” “The officers issuing these administrative warrants also have found probable cause,” McLaughlin said. “For decades, the Supreme Court and Congress have recognized the propriety of administrative warrants in cases of immigration enforcement.” The group Whistleblower Aid, which is representing the whistleblowers who shared the memo with Congress, said, “This ‘policy’ flies in the face of longstanding federal law enforcement training material and policies, all rooted in constitutional assessments.” “In other words: the Form I-205 does not authorize ICE agents to enter a home,” the group said in a statement. “Training new recruits, many of whom have zero prior law enforcement training or experience, to seemingly disregard the Fourth Amendment, should be of grave concern to everyone.” Blumenthal said in a statement that the memo was “allegedly not widely distributed” despite being labeled “all-hands.” A copy of the memo shared with Congress is addressed to “All ICE Personnel.” “Instead, the disclosure claims that the memo was rolled out in a secretive manner in which some agents were verbally briefed while others were allowed to view it but not keep a copy,” Blumenthal said. “It was reportedly clear that anyone who openly spoke out against this new directive would be fired.” The memo is dated less than five months into the second term of President Donald Trump, who campaigned on mass deportations.

A former Uvalde police officer was acquitted Wednesday of charges that he failed in his duties to confront the gunman at Robb Elementary during the critical first minutes of one of the deadliest school shootings in U.S. history. Jurors deliberated for more than seven hours before finding Adrian Gonzales, 52, not guilty in the first trial over the hesitant law enforcement response to the 2022 attack, in which a teenage gunman killed 19 fourth-graders and two teachers. Had he been convicted, he faced up two years in prison on more than two dozen charges of child abandonment and endangerment. Gonzales appeared to fight back tears and hugged his lawyers after the verdict was read in a courtroom in Corpus Christi, hundreds of miles from Uvalde, where his legal team said a fair trial would not have been possible. “Thank you for the jury for considering all the evidence,” Gonzales told reporters. Asked if he wanted to say anything to the families, he declined. Several family members of the victims sat in silence in the courtroom, some crying or wiping away tears. “Faith is fractured, but you never lose faith,” said Jesse Rizo, whose 9-year-old niece Jackie Cazares was killed. He said he was frustrated by the verdict and hopes the state will press ahead with the trial of former Uvalde schools Police Chief Pete Arredondo, the only other officer who has been charged over the police response. “Those children in the cemetery can’t speak for themselves,” Rizo said. Jurors declined to speak to reporters while leaving. Arredondo’s trial has not yet been set. Paul Looney, his attorney, told The Associated Press that he believes the verdict will result in prosecutors dropping the case against his client. “These people have been vilified, and it’s horrible what’s been done to them. These guys didn’t do anything wrong,” Looney said. A rare trial ends in acquittal The nearly three-week trial was an unusual case in the U.S. of an officer facing criminal charges on accusations of failing to stop a crime and protect lives. The proceedings included emotional testimony from teachers who were shot and survived. Prosecutors argued that Gonzales abandoned his training and did nothing to stop or interrupt the teenage gunman before he entered the school. “We’re expected to act differently when talking about a child that can’t defend themselves,” special prosecutor Bill Turner said during closing arguments Wednesday. “If you have a duty to act, you can’t stand by while a child is in imminent danger.” At least 370 law enforcement officers rushed to the school, where 77 minutes passed before a tactical team finally entered the classroom to confront and kill the gunman. Gonzales was one of just two officers indicted, angering some victim’s relatives who said they wanted more to be held accountable. Gonzales was charged with 29 counts of child abandonment and endangerment — each count representing the 19 students who were killed and 10 others who were injured. Jurors talked about ‘gaps’ in case, lawyer says During the trial jurors heard a medical examiner describe the fatal wounds to the children, some of whom were shot more than a dozen times. Several parents told of sending their children to school for an awards ceremony and the panic that ensued as the attack unfolded. Gonzales’ lawyers said he arrived upon a chaotic scene of rifle shots echoing on school grounds and never saw the gunman before the attacker went inside the school. They also insisted that three other officers who arrived seconds later had a better chance to stop the gunman. “He was the lowest man on the totem pole. They thought he was easy pickings,” Nico LaHood, one of Gonzales’ attorneys, said of prosecutors after the acquittal. Aug 12, 2025 ‘My kids are in there, bro … please.'

An autopsy commissioned by the family of the Renee Good, who was fatally shot by an immigration officer in Minneapolis earlier this month, found that she suffered three clear gunshot wounds, including one to her head, lawyers for the woman’s family said Wednesday. One of the injuries was to Good’s left forearm, the lawyers said in a statement, while another gunshot struck her right breast without piercing major organs. Neither of those wounds were immediately life-threatening, the attorneys said. A third shot entered the left side of Good’s head near the temple and exited on the right side, according to the statement, and she also appeared to have suffered a graze wound. The attorneys said the autopsy was conducted by a “highly respected” and credentialed independent medical pathologist. “We believe the evidence we are gathering and will continue to gather in our investigation will suffice to prove our case,” Lead Attorney Antonio M. Romanucci said in the statement. “The video evidence depicting the events of January 7, 2026, is clear, particularly when viewed through the standards of reasonable policing and totality of circumstances.” The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office has not yet released its findings about Good’s death to her family or their legal team, according to the attorneys. A search of cases on the medical examiner’s office website Wednesday night did not yield any results for Good’s death. Good, 37, was fatally shot in the driver’s seat of her SUV during an encounter with Jonathan Ross, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, in a residential part of Minneapolis on Jan. 7. The shooting followed the deployment of thousands of immigration officers to the Twin Cities. Music & Musicians Jan 19 Bruce Springsteen dedicates song to Renee Good, decries crackdown on immigrants during New Jersey performance Minnesota Jan 16 Minneapolis reports reveal chaotic moments after ICE officer fatally shot Renee Good Minnesota Jan 9 New cellphone video shows victim interacting with ICE officer moments before fatal shooting The encounter, which was captured on cell phone videos, showed Good’s wife — who was outside the SUV — calling Ross “big boy” and telling him to show his face. Other officers at the scene could be heard telling Good to get out of the car, and she could be seen turning the steering wheel away from Ross and beginning to drive. Multiple gunshots could be heard before Good’s SUV crashed into a parked vehicle. On a video recorded by Ross, a male voice could be heard saying, “f—–g bitch” moments before the crash. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accused Good of being a “domestic terrorist” without providing evidence and said Ross acted in self-defense. He was treated in a hospital for injuries he sustained in the incident and was released soon after, Noem said shortly after the shooting. A DHS official later told NBC News that Ross suffered internal bleeding but did not elaborate on his injuries. In an email Wednesday night, a department spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin accused Good of refusing to comply with officers’ commands. “If you impede law enforcement operations, ignore law commands, and use a deadly weapon to kill or cause bodily harm to a federal law enforcement office there are dangerous, and in this case deadly, consequences,” McLaughlin said. “This was entirely preventable.” In an earlier statement, Good’s attorneys described her and her wife as “responsible community members who lived peacefully and did not engage in harmful conduct toward others, including the federal agents involved on January 7, 2026.” Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, as well as other local officials, have criticized the federal immigration operations in the area. Walz and Frey, both Democrats, have also been at odds with federal authorities who have sought to justify Good’s shooting. The FBI is investigating the shooting. State…
