Vance uses new ICE shooting video to defend agent in Minnesota killing

Vance shared a new 47-second video supporting ICE agent Jonathan Ross's self-defense claim in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, challenging media narratives.

  • On Jan. 9, Vice President JD Vance reposted a newly published 47-second clip multiple times, signaling public support for ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who shot Renee Nicole Good, 37.
  • Vance argued the shooting was self-defense, criticizing media dishonesty and noting Ross was "seriously injured by a vehicle" six months ago, as court documents reveal.
  • On the recording, another federal officer orders the driver out, Renee Good's maroon Honda Pilot begins accelerating, then the handheld cell video drops and three shots ring out.
  • Vance framed the death as a tragedy while maintaining his support for ICE, and when USA TODAY asked DHS to verify the video, the Department of Homeland Security replied with a copy of their X post saying "WATCH:".
  • Multiple clips circulating online present different frames, including wheels angled right at firing, while Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called the self-defense claim a "garbage narrative" at a Jan. 7 news conference, fueling national debate over ICE conduct.
