The Trump regime is clearly attempting to prevent a real investigation into the killing of Renee Good by the ICE agent Jonathan Ross. Top administration officials are spreading outrageous lies about her and the FBI has seized control of the investigation. Yet state and local authorities still have the right [link removed] and duty to conduct their own investigation and prosecution, and there is plenty of evidence publicly available.

There Must Be Justice for Renee Good [link removed]

By now, most readers have probably seen the horrifying video of ICE agent Jonathan Ross shooting Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, to death. It should be assumed that a cover-up conspiracy is in the works at the highest level. Just listen to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem spew some of the most heinous lies [link removed] in the history of this administration—and that is saying something—calling a young mother with a glove box full of blood-splattered stuffed animals a “trained” “domestic terrorist” who maliciously attempted to run over ICE agents whose car had gotten stuck in the snow. Vice President Vance claimed, falsely [link removed], that all federal law enforcement officers have “absolute immunity [link removed]” (just like in a police state). The FBI has already stepped in to take control of the investigation [link removed]—refusing to cooperate with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, and seizing Good’s car, the shell casings, and other critical evidence.

But that shouldn’t be the end of the story. It is critically important that state and local authorities do all in their power to conduct their own investigation, and bring Ross to trial. Law and legal precedent seem to be quite clear. Law enforcement officers are not allowed to kill ordinary civilians to stop them from fleeing. FThere is also more than enough evidence to bring Ross in.

Indeed, this homicide is probably in the top 0.1 percent of most-documented alleged crimes just in terms of publicly available evidence. There are at least four different video recordings of the incident already published, with a clear view of the critical moment in which Ross fired into the vehicle as it passed by him, and numerous eyewitnesses who could be interviewed. That’s more than enough to clear any bar of reasonable doubt. Federal law enforcement officers are not immune from prosecution by state and local authorities, and there have been many cases of that happening.
