New details have emerged about Renee Nicole Good, the woman shot dead by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Minneapolis on Wednesday, from her ex-husband — and it casts doubt on narratives the Trump administration has spread to get ahead of protests.
A number of videos from bystanders showed officers converging on her car, demanding she exit the vehicle. She backed away and tried to turn around the officers, when the one in front moved to the side while withdrawing his service weapon and fired three shots through the open driver-side window. The car then proceeded forward with Good incapacitated, crashing into parked vehicles down the street.
Vice President JD Vance has already described Good, a 37-year-old poet and mother of three, as “a victim of left-wing ideology,” and MAGA elements have described her as a “domestic terrorist” who tried to run down ICE agents. But per Good’s ex-husband, not only was she not any of that, she’s never even been involved in a protest in her life, and almost certainly wasn’t protesting the officers at the time she was shot.
According to The Associated Press, the man “said she was no activist and that he had never known her to participate in a protest of any kind. He described her as a devoted Christian who took part in youth mission trips to Northern Ireland when she was younger. She loved to sing, participating in a chorus in high school and studying vocal performance in college.”
Moreover, the man, “who asked not to be named out of concern for the safety of their children, said Good had just dropped off her 6-year-old son at school Wednesday and was driving home with her current partner when they encountered a group of ICE agents on a snowy street in Minneapolis, where they had moved last year from Kansas City, Missouri.”
The ICE agent who shot Good has now been identified as Jonathan Ross. Reporting indicates that Ross had been involved in a separate incident months ago, and had been dragged by another fleeing vehicle and injured.
