Federal officials investigating Renee Good's widow in shooting probe: Report

Federal inquiry focuses on whether Becca Good impeded an officer before her wife was fatally shot, amid scrutiny of activist ties and public officials’ statements, officials said.

  • Federal investigators in Minneapolis are focusing on Becca Good, widow of Renee Nicole Good, to determine whether she may have impeded a federal officer before he shot her last week.
  • The Justice Department's December memo from Attorney General Pam Bondi prioritized countering `domestic terrorism` and listed statutes, including the U.S. Code section on `assaulting, resisting, or impeding federal officers`, framing the probe.
  • Video from the encounter shows Jonathan Ross walking around the SUV as Renee Good turns the wheel and an officer tells her to get out, while Becca Good appears to say `Drive` before Ross shouts and fires multiple shots.
  • Protests in Minneapolis have continued after the shooting, with cars honking and whistles blowing, while six prosecutors who resigned in Minneapolis criticized the investigation's handling.
  • The case highlights a DOJ shift away from policing-accountability probes as federal scrutiny expands to examine Walz and Frey, with Democratic officials calling the investigation political.
