DOJ Opens Probe Tied to ICE incident in Minneapolis
The U.S. Department of Justice has reportedly opened a new criminal investigation tied to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, focusing on whether her widow may have interfered with a federal immigration officer moments before the deadly encounter in Minneapolis.
According to multiple sources cited by national media, the inquiry centers on the actions of Rebecca Good, who was present during the confrontation on January 7, when ICE agent Jonathan Ross opened fire, killing the 37-year-old mother of three.
Investigators are said to be examining whether Rebecca Good impeded the agent or had connections to activist groups involved in anti-ICE demonstrations.
However, Rebecca Good’s attorney, Antonio Romanucci, rejected the suggestion that his client is under federal scrutiny.
“There has been no contact from the FBI or any federal official indicating that Becca Good is the subject of an investigation,” Romanucci said in a statement.
The Trump administration has defended Agent Ross’s actions, arguing that he acted in self-defense after Renee Good allegedly used her vehicle as a weapon.
Federal officials claim Good struck the agent with her SUV while blocking the street during an immigration enforcement operation.
That account has been disputed by local officials, eyewitnesses, and members of Good’s family.
Video footage from the scene shows Renee Good seated in the driver’s seat of her plum-colored Honda Pilot, positioned perpendicular across the roadway.
Her wife, Rebecca, can be seen outside the vehicle confronting officers. As another agent ordered Renee Good to exit the SUV, Rebecca allegedly shouted for her to drive away.
Moments later, the vehicle moved forward and clipped Agent Ross, who then fired multiple shots through the windshield and an open window, according to video recorded by the agent.
Emergency reports later indicated that Renee Good was struck multiple times, suffering gunshot wounds to the chest, arm, and head.
Footage taken after the shooting shows Rebecca Good visibly distraught, crying and saying, “It’s my fault.”
The Department of Homeland Security has continued to label Renee Good a “domestic terrorist,” a description that has further inflamed public anger.
Her killing sparked days of intense protests in Minneapolis, some of which turned violent, leading DHS to deploy thousands of additional ICE agents to the region.
In a parallel development, sources told CBS News that the Justice Department is also reviewing the actions of Tim Walz and Jacob Frey.
The early-stage probe is reportedly examining whether statements made by the governor and mayor criticizing the large federal law-enforcement presence could constitute a conspiracy to impede immigration agents.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche suggested in a television interview that public officials encouraging residents to alert authorities about ICE activity could be approaching a federal offense.
As investigations continue on multiple fronts, the death of Renee Good remains a flashpoint in the national debate over immigration enforcement, protest rights, and the use of deadly force by federal agents.
