法律专家引用最高法院过去的裁决指出,在致命枪击案中的联邦代理人不能免于国家刑事指控。 A federal agent in a fatal shooting is not immune from state criminal charges, legal experts say, citing past Supreme Court rulings.

副总统J. D. Vice President J.D. Vance于2026年1月13日声称, 参与在明尼阿波利斯射杀Renee Nicole Good的ICE特工绝对免于国家起诉, 但法律专家反驳了这一点, Vance claimed on January 13, 2026, that an ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis has absolute immunity from state prosecution, but legal experts refuted this, stating federal agents are not shielded from state criminal charges when force is disputed. 他们援引了最高法院以往的裁决,包括Drury诉Lewis案的裁决,这些裁决允许对履行联邦职责的美国士兵提出州谋杀指控,确认州法院可以评估武力的合法性。 They cited past Supreme Court rulings, including Drury v. Lewis, which allowed state murder charges against a U.S. soldier acting in federal duty, affirming state courts can assess the lawfulness of force. 虽然联邦官员在民事案件中可能享有合格的豁免,但它不给予刑事起诉豁免权。 While federal officials may have qualified immunity in civil cases, it does not grant immunity from criminal prosecution. 代理人的法律地位仍在审查之中,预计法院将逐案确定豁免。 The legal status of the agent remains under review, with courts expected to determine immunity on a case-by-case basis.
