Renee Good's Family Sues US Government and Immigration Officials over Her Killing in Minneapolis
The complaints seek damages and a jury trial, and they say federal officials used unjustified deadly force and violated civil rights during Operation Metro Surge.
- On Thursday, the family of 37-year-old Renee Good filed civil lawsuits against the United States government and several officials, alleging wrongful death and conspiracy in her January 7 fatal shooting by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis.
- Good was fatally shot by ICE officer Jonathan Ross during an immigration operation where she had stopped her vehicle in the street to support neighbors, according to bystander videos and family accounts.
- The complaints allege "battery, assault, false imprisonment" and a "conspiracy to interfere with civil rights" involving White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
- This legal action follows recent testimony by Good's mother, Donna Ganger, and brother, Brent Ganger, before Congress regarding fatal shootings by federal immigration officers, sparking nationwide outrage and calls for stricter enforcement oversight.
- At least 10 people have died in encounters with immigration officers during President Donald Trump's second term, including U.S. citizen Alex Pretti, whose death fueled demands for stricter enforcement oversight and accountability.
