Newly released cell phone footage, reportedly from ICE agent Jonathan Ross, shows the deadly confrontation where he shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, igniting national controversy and conflicting official accounts.
The article details the highly contentious shooting of Renee Nicole Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis, as depicted in newly published cell phone footage reportedly filmed by Ross himself. The video shows Ross approaching Good's vehicle, a brief interaction, followed by him drawing his gun and firing three shots, after which an officer is heard cursing as the car departs. Good was pronounced dead shortly thereafter, sparking widespread outrage. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey defended his use of expletives following the incident and refuted claims by the Trump administration, including VP JD Vance, that Ross was injured. The Trump administration has largely defended Ross, with Vance alleging Good was part of a 'broader left-wing network' and involved in 'car ramming,' claims echoed by Homeland Security sources who said she was part of an 'ICE watch group.' Conversely, Good's wife, Becca Good, emphasized Renee's legacy of 'kindness and love,' and Democrats highlighted Good's final words. Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego questioned the agent's training and conduct, particularly his handling of a phone while shooting and continuing to fire as the vehicle drove away. The incident has led to significant public support for abolishing ICE and a large sum raised for Good's family. Separately, the USDA announced the suspension of all federal funding to Minnesota, citing 'massive fraud.'
