Renee Good was shot at least three times, according to autopsy commissioned by her family | The Independent
By: Mike Bedigan (The Independent)
Renee Nicole Good was shot at least three times during her altercation with an ICE agent in Minneapolis, according to an independent autopsy commissioned by her family.
Lawyers for Good's family said Wednesday that the report concluded that the 37-year-old had suffered three clear gunshot wounds, one of which had been to her head.
Good was struck on her left forearm, as well as taking another shot to her right breast, though the bullet did not hit any of her major organs. Neither injury would have been immediately life-threatening, the lawyers said.
A third shot entered the left side of her head near the temple and exited on the right side, according to the statement, first obtained by NBC. Good also appeared to have sustained a graze wound, it added.
The autopsy was conducted by a "highly respected" and credentialed independent medical pathologist, according to the lawyers, who added that they had not yet received findings about Good's death from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office.

Good's death on January 9 has sparked outrage across the country as well as increased protests in Minnesota, which has seen a surge in immigration enforcement operations and brutal crackdowns on demonstrators.
Donald Trump previously threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act, which would see the U.S. military deployed to quash the protests.

The commission of the independent autopsy comes as part of a wider investigation into the incident. ICE agent Jonathan Ross was identified as the shooter and has been fiercely defended by the Trump administration, which described him as an "experienced" officer.
Conversely, officials described Good variously as a "lunatic" who was attempting to perpetrate an act of "domestic terrorism." Video taken by Ross showed Good telling him, "I'm not mad at you, dude," moments before she was shot dead.
"We believe the evidence we are gathering and will continue to gather in our investigation will suffice to prove our case," the family's lead attorney, Antonio M. Romanucc,i said in the statement, per NBC.
"The video evidence depicting the events of January 7, 2026, is clear, particularly when viewed through the standards of reasonable policing and totality of circumstances."

According to this information Good was killed by a bullet that passed through her brain , shot point blank through the drivers seat window.
Then that shows she was headed right for the agent.
This is my nomination for the most stupid comment regarding this tragedy.
The agent shot once into the lower corner of the driver windshield. Obviously (right?) this bullet was not a head shot into the temple.
Then, when the vehicle passed by him (traveling down the road), he shot (at least) two more times through the driver's side window.
Now, what would a rational human being presume about those last two shots given that one hit her temple?
I have yet to see a video where her vehicle was moving sideways.
Reminder, he wrote:
So, for your statement to be true, the car would have to be traveling sideways.
Correction to my last post. There is a bullet hole in the windshield on the DRIVER’s side. I apologize for my mis reading the post
An easy correction. Watch the videos and learn what actually happened.
Sadly, the VIDEO proves that was not the case.
Sadly your blinders need to be wiped off.
Wow. Talk about wearing blinders. The MAGAites have clearly all decided to blind themselves and give themselves lobotomies because that is the only way to see the footage of the killing of Renee Good as justified. We all know of course that if this was some MAGAite being shot multiple times in the head as the vehicle passed by a Democratic administration's federal agent these fucking useless hypocrites would be screaming bloody murder and demanding the Democrat President be impeached.
This obviously is nothin more than screeching hysterics. Most conservatives would back the LE if it showed the officer was in danger and he was trying to protect himself, just as this LE did with the trained agitator.
Lesson to learn here? Don't try and run over an LEO. You will make it to the next day if you don't
I will go one step farther. Dont accelerate a car when a LEO is near the front of the car and expect him to know if you plan to hit him.
How do you know? Is there some reason Renee Good should have trusted those agents to do the right thing by her? What would inform that trust?
Their behavior over the last year tells us they enjoy being brutal to people.
Their behavior in this moment undoubtedly told Renee Good they were prone to violence and irrational behavior.
While she was being pleasant and conversational, an agent suddenly ran at her car, yelling at her and trying to yank open her car door. I cannot blame her for suddenly being afraid for her life.
This wins the dumbest post of the internet today..
We now know for sure that blocking traffic, yelling at ICE agents, screaming profanities out the window towards them, all the while her boyfriend got out of the car, filmed her mocking agents because he wanted to be an internet sensation, is considered "being pleasant and conversational" to some leftists.
No agent "suddenly" ran to her car. There were already 2 there telling her to get out of the car, but she continuously refused, so one of the LE tried to open the door to pull her out. That is when she put the car in reverse, backed up, then put the car in drive and aimed for the agent.
I refuse to continue to rehash what is ON VIDEO for all to see but refuse to because of confirmation bias by what they have been told to see.
Your repeated blatant denial of the reality illustrated in these videos would be funny if this were not a serious issue.
Obviously you are going to play the Trump game and repeat false claims forever.
Do you actually think that this tactic is going to work?

And here you go again, trying to defend the Trump administration in a situation where they are clearly dead wrong (lying) and we all can see exactly what really happened.

To be honest, the only one I felt sorry for was the dog in the SUV because she put him/her at risk of getting shot because of her actions and the dog had to ride the car until it slammed into another car.
Perfect. You have no empathy for a woman being killed for trying to leave. You have no concern for the danger that the officer put others in by firing shots into a vehicle. Not only could those shots have hit others, but by killing the driver he created an unmanned vehicle traveling down the road. Good that it crashed into an empty car on the road rather than hit a pedestrian or crash into driving vehicles at an intersection.
Did you actually read my comment or just take this as an opportunity to tell everyone what you saw.
Do you not see that anyone (not just in this case) "accelerating a car when a LEO is near the front of the car and expect him to know if you plan to hit him" does not drastically increase the chances of a bad ending?
That was my actual comment that you ignored.
Yes, because there are hundreds of people that follow the directions to get out the car that get out of the car and are shot in the head. S/
You continue to try to find a way to blame the victim and refuse to acknowledge what this officer did incorrectly. This officer placed himself near the car (and even so, she was moving her vehicle away from him). He then chose to pull his firearm, ready his aim, fire into the driver lower windshield. Then move, and fire again point-blank into the driver side window. All the while, he stayed clear of the vehicle.
He should have never been close. Instead of pulling his gun, protocol says to use the time to step clear of any perceived danger (which he obviously had plenty of time to do). And protocol says he should never fire on a vehicle anyway unless there was a reasonable threat of imminent death or great bodily harm. It does not allow an officer to put himself in such a position (even though his position did not meet the criteria) and then claim that his use of deadly force was justified.
See? You are the one ignoring clear, convincing evidence. Ignoring what the videos clearly show.
Watch the videos I provided. Stop trying to support the corrupt administration's claims that this officer operated properly.
Yet again, another post trying to blame the victim in support of the corrupt Trump administration.
Are you suggesting what I said is not accurate sarcasm or are you once again just looking for a reason to make a lame accusation?
Once again ignoring a comment and using it as an opportunity to rant. Is what I said true or false? I am not suggesting any blame at all, that is all you. I am just stating a fact, the rest is your imagination.
Do you not see that anyone (not just in this case) accelerating a car when a LEO is near the front of the car and expect him to know if you plan to hit him" does not drastically increase the chances of a bad ending?
True or false?
Bullshit. You are trying to blame the victim (yet again).
I have stated long ago that Good should have not been there in the first place and should have cooperated with the ICE officers even though they did not have the authority to make her leave her vehicle.
What she did wrong is minor; not unlike what many others would do in that circumstance. What the officer did wrong is both major and tragic.
Your posts continuing to try to blame the victim are disgusting.
Still deflecting from the question I see. The answer is easy, Yes, it is more likely bad things will happen if someone accelerates their car if there is LEO near the front of the car.
I will let you continue to have your discussions with me without me, it is obvious you are just making my responses fit what you want and are not based in reality, as usual.
I hear there was another shooting in Minneapolis by ICE agents this morning, shooting and killing an armed insurgent.
Only a matter of time before leftists here will be defending him, seeing things on video that do not exit.
Woooops..I take that back. Apparently soy boy Frey is already defending the armed insurgent and the soy police chief is begging for his insurgent supporters to "remain calm".
You cannot see the answer?
You remain laser-focused on what Good did wrong (minor at that) and never acknowledge the tragic and profoundly wrong actions (major) of the officer who killed her.
Why is that?
Or not wait for a video at all before telling us what happened.
Does it need to be hundreds before citizens become cautious?
Actually, many people who submit to police authority are injured every year. But ICE in particular, over the last year has been especially brutal, even with people who are trying to comply.
Minneapolis family, six children tear gassed after they were caught in clash between ICE and protesters
….
…
What would you have done in the same circumstances?
First of all, which circumstances? We have two. The Good situation? Or the Jackson situation?
The details are different, so it’s hard to say. One commonality that does exist is that ICE was willing to use measures that threatened the lives of people who were not a threat to them. That is probably a pretty important lesson to learn.
I posted a story the other day that debunked this narrative about the ICE agents gassing a family simply coming home from a basketball game.
The TRUTH is the parents abandoned the children on the car and went out and rioted with their insurgent friends. There are pictures of the parents with the insurgents. I truly feel bad for the baby but the parents are one hundred percent responsible.
The parents went on to scam lemmings out of about 200,000 on gofundme.
They are laughing at the idiots that gave them money
Therefore, you think it’s ok that government agents launched a grenade at a car full of children?
Aaaaaaaand where did I say that? The chemical could have landed 20ft away and the wind blow it into the car. There is no indication that there was a canister shot directly into the car.
Also, it is well known and documented on video that insurgents in Mn will pick up a canister and throw it back at the LEOs. How do you know they did not throw it around the car, causing it to blow in?
Answer......you don't.
Where did I say you said it? (Hint: I didn’t.) When you take a position, or say a series of things, it implies a policy or conclusion. But I didn’t accuse you of saying those words or holding that view. I asked you if you held that view. You could simply have said no. Instead, you tried to deflect with pedantry. That also implies something - that I was on the right track.
The wind blew the canister under the car? Is there nothing you won’t invent to defend this brutality?
I don’t. Though it seems unlikely that a civilian - even a “rioting” one - would throw it at families, and not agents.
But herein lies the problem, which you are ignoring. Deliberately, perhaps. If these kinds of scenarios you have described - wind blowing a canister, canisters being rethrown - are so highly probable, then it is recklessly irresponsible to deploy them where they could injure or kill children upon casual redirection. And make no mistake - tear gas or a flash bang grenade could absolutely kill a child or infant. Only a psycho would launch things like that at families.
OK then you are a mind reader (Hint: You aren't)
"That also implies something - that I was on the right track."
Far from it.
"The wind blew the canister under the car?"
Does wind not go under cars? Is there some sort of "wind barrier" that cars come with now?
The problem with your "explanation" of my scenario is that you were not there. You have zero idea what transpired. It was dark. Can LEOs see in the dark now? Are you sure they saw those kids in a car? Are you absolutely certain that an insurgent did not just randomly throw a canister in the direction of the car?
There are other scenarios you choose to ignore. Deliberately possibly?
I repeat - and with emphasis - because you skipped this part:

So maybe he fired four times? We may never know because the Feds cleaned everything up right away and aren’t sharing the evidence. No one got a chance to count shell casings, examine the car, run ballistics, review body cam footage, etc. Honestly, it’s a miracle that the family has access to the body. I’m surprised the Feds didn’t just toss her into Lake Superior.
This could not have been the shot fired through the windshield. It seems most probable that the windshield shot is the one that hit her in the forearm. The others had to have gone through the side window, when the agent was indisputably in no danger.
The administration is corrupt. Congress does nothing. Sycophants keep supporting Trump.
This is sick.
If they truly want this investigated at the federal level, all they have to do is award Trump the "City of Minneapolis International Peace Prize" for stopping 12+ wars. He'll make everyone bend over backwards once he accepts the prize.
This is exactly what I was wondering about in another article several days ago. It looks like she wasn't fatally wounded until her vehicle was passing Ross, when he was off to the side and completely out of the way, and he shot her point blank through the open driver's window as she drove by. As can be seen in the video, he intentionally shot her in the head when he was in no danger. That is absolutely not a justifiable use of lethal force.
She was murdered by a trigger-happy psycho and the Government is trying to sweep it under the rug.
