According to court documents, Castro shot Julio Sosa-Celis through his home door with two children present, then made false statements to investigators. The indictment alleges Castro falsely claimed he was on his back when he fired, as well as exaggerating the length of a struggle with Sosa-Celis. Castro has been suspended without pay by the Department of Homeland Security while the investigation continues. A federal prosecutor in Minnesota who was handling the case was fired, with sources suggesting the investigation was focused on allegations of leaking information.",
