INVESTIGATORS are examining the raw, unredacted psychological records of the two police officers involved in the fatal shooting of Australian life coach Justine Ruszczyk Damond for the first time.

Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, an independent body probing Ms Damond’s death, filed a search warrant requesting “medical files that contain pre-employment psychological exams, the unredacted personnel files, and the pre-employment background investigations” for officers Mohammed Noor and Matthew Harrity, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports.

The BCA had only publicly released redacted files from the officers in the past.

Officer Noor was in the passenger seat of their squad car and fired his gun across Officer Harrity, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, when Ms Damond approached.

Ms Damond was shot in the stomach and died on July 15.

The 40-year-old from Sydney was in her pyjamas after calling 911 just before midnight to report a woman screaming and possibly being raped near the alley behind her home.

Officer Noor has refused to speak to investigators.

Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman, who will decide if Officer Noor will be charged, said it could take until the end of the year to make the decision.

The news comes as the Minneapolis police chief who resigned under pressure after Justine was fatally shot would receive nearly $US183,000 ($A22,875) and 12 months of health and dental benefits under a proposed severance deal.

The deal for ex-Chief Janee Harteau still requires city council approval.

Harteau was asked to resign in July after Officer Mohamed Noor fatally shot her.

The Star Tribune reports the agreement released Friday by the city also includes a clause that says Harteau can say nothing negative about Mayor Betsy Hodges or other city officials and they can say nothing negative about her.

Harteau has not spoken publicly since her resignation.

She was criticised for continuing her vacation after Damond was shot.

A public memorial for Justine was held in Minneapolis in August where her father told a crowd of mourners his daughter was ‘ripped’ from his arms as her fiance told of how he still loves her.

Hundreds of mourners heard John Ruscscyk speak lovingly of his daughter’s warmth and ability to bring joy to her many friends.

“I call this Juzz therapy,” he said to the crowd of about 1000 mourners, may of them wearing Ms Damond’s favourite colour blue.

He grew emotional as he talked of how she had died, taken by a “bullet fired by an agent of the state”.

“Justine should not have died this way. This is wrong on every level,” Mr Ruszczyk said.

“We want justice for Justine. We are determined to get justice for Justine because by getting justice for her we get it for all others who have died this way.

“I don’t understand,” he said. “I feel crushed.”

He reflected on how he and his wife Katarina should have been on a plane to their daughter’s wedding. But they went to her funeral instead.

He also told the crowd: “You have stolen my daughter ... ripped her from our arms.”

Her fiance Don Damond said his love won’t end for “dear, sweet, loving” Justine, and he feels she is still with her.

Mr Damond said his fiance — who rescued dozens of animals — had been “led by her heart” in the minutes before she was shot dead.

“You know on the night of July 15, Justine went into that back alley because she went to help, she wanted to help somebody in need,” Mr Damond said.

“Although within five minutes of going out there we know what happened, I know this; that I can’t accept that the love stopped, nor that it ever stops.

“I feel it, we all feel it, look at the turnout here this is about love and care.”
