US EditionHow ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good Could Face State Charges
Local prosecutors face barriers like federal immunity and restricted evidence access while pursuing state charges against ICE agent Jonathan Ross in the Jan. 7 shooting.
- On Jan. 7, ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis, but local prosecutors said they couldn’t determine if crimes occurred due to lack of evidence access.
- Federal officials quickly seized control of the scene and limited state access, cutting Minnesota state investigators off from evidence and interviews as standard interagency agreements broke down.
- Section 609.066 and the In re Neagle precedent complicate Minnesota prosecutors' efforts, as federal law grants immunity and leaves key questions to a jury.
- Prosecutors publicly solicited tips after losing evidence access, several top federal prosecutors resigned Tuesday, and protests drew more than 120 people ahead of a nationwide walkout, while Zion Ogundare said `Any attention being brought to the situation about what is happening is good`.
- The New York Times' reporting on autopsy and video discrepancies raises contested forensic questions, while legal analysts warn that removal to federal courts and immunity claims could block state charges.
