ICE agent unlikely to face charges in Renee Good’s death

The ICE agent who fatally shot protester Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis is unlikely to face criminal charges — as the Justice Department is not expected to open a civil rights probe into the deadly ordeal, according to a report.
Federal investigators assigned to probe last week’s fatal encounter are looking increasingly less likely to charge the agent, Jonathan Ross, after he opened fire on the 37-year-old, the New York Times reported, citing sources familiar with the investigation.

The decision could change, however, as the investigation unfolds, the sources said.
FBI investigators, who have taken over the case from local authorities, said their review of the fatal shooting includes analyzing Ross’s conduct and key physical evidence — including the handgun involved.
Meanwhile, the DOJ’s civil rights division has so far declined to look at whether Ross, a Trump-supporting war veteran, potentially violated the protester’s civil rights when he fired three shots at her.
The Trump administration, including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, quickly branded Good a “domestic terrorist” — arguing the ICE agent only fired the fatal shots in self-defense after the alleged agitator struck him with her vehicle.
As part of the investigation, the feds are said to be zeroing in on Good’s links to anti-ICE activist groups protesting the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
The Justice Department plans to examine the actions of numerous activists who took part in apparent neighborhood watch activities in the lead-up to Good’s death.
It comes as massive protests continue in Minneapolis and throughout the country in the wake of Good’s death.
Friends have claimed that Good was an anti-ICE “warrior,” drawn into activism through her six-year-old son’s charter school and its local “ICE Watch” group, and that she worked to “document and resist” the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota.
“She was a warrior. She died doing what was right,” a mother named Leesa, whose child attends the same school, told The Post at a growing vigil where Good was killed Wednesday.
Neighbors also said Renee Good had regularly attended meetings with the local chapter and had received “thorough training” from the group.
The group began as a loosely affiliated coalition of anti-ICE activists but has recently aligned with more radical organizations, including Twin Cities Ungovernables.
The group had also shared a detailed manual providing instructions on fighting police officers to free arrested comrades from their grasp, comparing each “de-arrest” to a “micro-intifada.”
Good’s wife, Rebecca, who was confronting ICE agents outside the SUV at the time of the shooting, was filmed sobbing, “It’s my fault,” after the shots rang out and she realized Renee had been struck.
“I made her come down here. It’s my fault,” she said, her face covered in blood after rushing to her partner’s aid.
“They shot her in the head. I have a 6-year-old in school,” she said.
Her death has sparked massive protests in Minneapolis and throughout the country.
