"The head of Minnesota's state investigations agency says the U.S. attorney's office has cut off its access in the fatal shooting of a Minneapolis woman by an ICE agent" seems like very important information.

The head of Minnesota's state investigations agency seems to publicly think it's important.
This is a very good demonstration of the epistemic purpose of this term and the uses it is put to.
