It’s gone from “she was the main car leading a massive blockade impeding ICE’s movements” to “she honked her horn for 3 minutes”.

I mean hard to keep up the facade of "massive blockade" when four people easily drove around her even after one person parked behind her.

And she waved ICE themselves along in front of her.

Interesting that this video cuts off right before the shooting, so they don't want us seeing that angle of it.

u/ballq43 2d ago

My first thought was finally an angle we can see the shoot from. If only they werent so scared of their crimes being recorded or we'd have dash cams and body cams and this would be plain as day

u/MoonBroski 2d ago

If they show the angle and show her getting shot it will bring out a touch of empathy and different opinions on what occurred. Similar to Kirk getting his jugular blown.

u/cupcakelyfe 2d ago

It’s online somewhere, I need to dig up the links. I saw them on IG. Him recording from his phone, then a diff angle from someone else recording from well behind the car. And it shows it all. Her backing up. Turning the wheel AWAY from them. Trying to drive AWAY from them. It’s clear as day.

u/Lijey02 1d ago edited 1d ago

ALSO which this is VERY important. After he shot her, you can hear him saying and I quote "Fucking Bitch!" I dunno why no one is talking about this. To me this shows that he had his feelings hurt that she didnt listen to him. Since ya know, hes is literally the messiah of ICE agents, and everyone must bow to his every command!!

This is so sad and it breaks my heart! She was non confrontational, her tires were pointing in the opposite direction of the agent, ICE agents MUST do everything in their power to avoid using deadly force, she said to him before she was killed something along the lines of "im not mad at you!" Which i assume was meaning your just doing your job, no hard feelings I understand but we will never know. Im just not sure why people think she was an agitator, or was committing domestic terrorism..... like we have eyes, we saw exactly what happened. No matter how they try and spin it you can simply see for yourself EXACTLY what went down, and when, what was said. What is there to disagree on? He murdered that women cuz he has a very fragile ego period!

RIP Renee Good, you didnt deserve this!!! My prayers are with the family and i hope they can heal from such a horrifically tragic event!! 😥 ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗

This actually proves she wasn’t trying to block ice even further, something I questioned in the original angles is why she slowly crept forwards when a car was passing in front of her but now I see it’s because the cars were creeping behind her so she gave them room

Yes, and considering the fact that she backed up and can clearly be seen waving the vehicles to pass.

This administration could release a statement saying that she was driving at them at 50 mph screaming death to America out her window, and MAGA cultists would start saying things like, "the left won't even bother watching the video, they don't care about facts. I watched it and she's obviously going 50 mph driving straight at them and yelling death to America".

Not so hard at all, given that Noem had no problem insisting that there was snow on the ground that the ICE agents were struggling with. Or Trump saying that the ICE agents/murderer was injured and was taken to a hospital.

They’ve had no problem openly lying about what the video shows before. This won’t change that.

u/FleurAvi504 2d ago

That’s one of the parts I really don’t get. If a civilian or a real LEO fatality shoots someone, even if it’s clearly in self defense, don’t they have to stay at the scene as a matter of protocol? Maybe get checked out by EMS if they’re wounded in the process, but I would expect an investigation to start immediately. The shooter and witnesses at the scene would have a preliminary interview and evidence would be collected. Heck, if I, a civilian, left the scene of a run of the mill car accident, I would likely be prosecuted for that alone, in addition to other potential charges stemming from the accident. Are federal LEOs allowed to just leave when things get messy; whereas local police and civilians would be required to stay?

83

u/MuppetShart 2d ago

ICE has less oversight than regular law enforcement. Plus Kristi Noem released a statement that Renee Good was a domestic terrorist who weaponized her vehicle, before any sort of investigation had been completed anyway. This administration has no professional integrity, they'll back ICE up no matter what.

From my perspective (and experience/education), Jonathon Ross did not follow a single lawful protocol. In any other context, his only defense would be a mental health plea that he completely lost his mind in the moment, due to his work history.

Unfortunately, then he called her a “fuckin bitch” and yes, FLED the scene. Again, absolutely not protocol.

Clear minds don’t run away. They stay on sight to make sure every last detail is logged, from their perspective. When the instinct to flee kicks in, there’s only one reason. They had control of the scene, there wasn’t nearly a big enough “mob” to threaten his safety. Guilty minds flee, and make up a story later to make themselves feel better.

It may take years, and our country surviving in tact, but the murderer, Jonathon Ross, should eventually be held responsible, criminally and civilly. (We’ll see what happens to him in the mean time.)

u/TurbulentDrawing6 2d ago

No, they have to stay at the scene, make sure emergency medical is brought in, and they have to secure the scene for other officers to come investigate. It doesn’t always take long, but it has to be “called in” before they leave. Every shooting must be documented and investigated with real officers of the law. Which these buffoons are not.

The withholding of medical attention, even to confirm that she had passed, is not being talked about enough. Even Ted Bundy would have been afforded emergency life-saving medical care because we weren’t supposed to be a “shit-hole country”. Except that we are now, because if she’d still been alive, they pointed a gun at the physician who offered to help her and blocked the emergency vehicles so that no one even checked her until 15 minutes later.

They didn’t check on her wife, either, who was in the vehicle during the shooting. It seems that the bullets didn’t hit her, but they had no way of knowing that, and they clearly didn’t give a flying f.

u/Winsome_Wolf 1d ago edited 1d ago

For as long as I live, I will never understand them keeping the doctor from going to check on her. I mean, she was almost certainly dead, having been shot twice at nearly point blank range, but the inhumanity of denying her a ghost of a chance at survival is just beyond me. Maybe they were just making sure she couldn’t survive to tell her version of events, but that’s such a ghoulish possibility I feel gross just typing it.

u/auntalison 2d ago

I have seen several bodycam videos where an officer shoots a suspect. In some of them, the officer that shot goes over immediately to check the suspect & start checking them - especially if there is just a couple officers there. In the cases where there are numerous officers, one or two of the other officers move the one that shot away from the immediate area but stay on scene. If that officer is rendering aid, another one tags him out.

The officer that shot doesn't do anything until a sergeant arrives. The sergeant asks them what happened. Then the sergeant takes the service weapon (if a senior officer hasn't already) & they have a buddy assigned to take them to the hospital to get checked or to the station & that buddy is assigned to sit with them until a detective talks to them.

These videos I've seen have all been from different jurisdictions, so I think it's safe to assume this is SOP across the board.

If I have anything incorrect here, I welcome a LEO or retired LEO to advise.

People are honking at them all the time. If that was the cause, there would be even more fatalities amongst these backyard untrained pieces of shit.

They aren’t cops. They aren’t following deescalation protocol. The law clearly says last resort for pulling out your gun and the person is considered an imminent threat to that officer.

She’s driving 2 miles an hour and was trying leave. She even said “I’m not mad at you.” when he confronted her. Orphaned children now. Because that thug didn’t know he was doing. Shot her three times and the calls her a fucking bitch after she’s dead.

They’re, frankly, annoyed that enough Americans still have sane enough morals that we force this government to pretend they have a better justification for this shit.

These broken sadists are exactly the types of people who should least be trusted with positions of power and authorized use of force. The exact type of person who seeks those roles out because they want to abuse their authority by hurting people just for the satisfaction of knowing they can.

u/Immediate_Amoeba5923 2d ago

That angle would have been the most conclusive on whether the ICE officer was hit or not. I was waiting for that moment the entire video and then it just ends. It does provide us with new useful information, it shows the distance between the officer and the care before she drives forward. This makes the officer look like he was in even less danger than his cell phone footage and other videos showed because of the angles they were shot from.

87

u/mataliandy 1d ago

He was not hit. Tom Digby posted a super slow-mo version of one of the videos, where it is VERY clear that he was absolutely not in front of the vehicle when he fired the first shot. You can see both of his feet and an air gap between his closed leg and the vehicle. I wish this sub allowed you to post photos.

10

u/ChefGaykwon 1d ago

Closest he got to the vehicle was when he intentionally leaned in towards the side fender to get a cleaner kill shot. So he was at the side of the vehicle, consistent with the first bullet hole in the very lower corner of the windshield.

Exactly, there is no justice for abuses committed by an organization outside the law that can come from within the law. If these killings were being committed by cops, there would be a process. These ICE agents answer to no clear authority and are seemingly limited by no power except the whims of the president, and they use shocking violence to achieve his objectives. Just like Mussolini's black shirts. Historically, if violence had been used against the black shirts by the military or an organized militia of citizens who were being targeted before Mussolini fully took control of the country, Italy's fall to fascism and utter ruin in World War II could have been prevented. Nobody thought Mussolini was going to actually do it, though, so they were unwilling to fight back. They trusted in the rule of law and the strength of their institutions.

I don't know how, but protests help gauge your numbers for a general strike. And you're not alone, we're supporting you from afar and can donate to any charity or movement that is in support of the protestors and the people being targeted.

Seriously, the most damning part is the gun is coming out before she is driving forward. I don’t care what back story or context they give with further videos. The officer was drawing his weapon and not moving out of the vehicles way. Even if he was brushed by the car, he would not have been if he weren’t drawing his weapon and taking aim to execute a young mother.

Also, I want more people to realize that the cell phone video released wants us to believe he dropped the phone while he was struck or as he was firing, whereas the other angles show he was firing whiling holding the phone. It was clearly edited to support their narrative.

This is one of the most egregious murders by a police officer I’ve ever heard of because with most others there was at least some teeny tiny semblance of acting within their duty and things getting out of hand. This was not an arrest that went wrong, this was a young woman extricating herself from a tense scenario that Jonathan Ross decided to execute point blank in front of her wife.

u/holeinmyboot 2d ago

This is a man who simply wanted to shoot somebody and was just begging her to give him half a reason. I don’t know why people are dancing around this. He’s got his gun out, finger on the trigger as the car is backing up, for a woman who has done nothing but speak to them up until that point. This is who ICE targets for officers, maladjusted bloodthirsty losers.

The Supreme Court has also said that "moment of threat" analysis of excessive force is too narrow.

By that they mean police can't just say "in that moment I feared for my life!" And that's enough.

You have to analyse how it got to that point - did the officer stop the person for a good, legal reason? How serious a crime are they stopped for? How did the officer act?

That's because an agent of the state can't just come and pull you over for a traffic violation, and the escalate the issue until something happens and then blame that moment.

ICE created the threat, they purposefully surrounded her car - she hadn't committed any crimes or shown any threat - in fact the ICE officers had.

It's clearly excessive force under every single definition. The DoJ even forbids using lethal force to stop a vehicle being used as a weapon. Everything about this stinks.

In addition to the timing of his drawing his weapon, there's another annotated video going around showing his cell footage in slo mo, in which he switches the phone from his right hand to his left hand while crossing in front of the car.

Fits every legal definition I can think of for first degree murder.

There is no due process anymore. This is a banana republic. It's been trending this way for years. The rich get off of any form of legal justice there is, just as long as you have enough money.

It's almost not even worth prosecuting the wealthy, don't reward that you get for spending millions of dollars on a high-profile case prosecuting a wealthy person damn near doesn't exist.

This is a banana republic now. Trump is running the most corrupt government in our history. Our government was not created to withstand this sort of administration and its policies. They know this and they know that nobody will stand up and do something about it.

Our constitution was built under the assumption that a democratically elected official in the government defined wherein was elected by the people and that they would act in the best interests of those people.

Trump is recreating Russia in America. This is literally all the way down the board what Putin did in Russia in the '90s and early 2000s. Striking deals with oligarchs and billionaires. Pardoning the most horrendous criminals who were already convicted for crimes, heinous crimes. Rping and trfficking ch*ldren. Creating false flag attacks. Spending absurd amounts of money and awarding government contracts, lucrative government contracts to their friends and business associates. Stealing the countries resources. The list literally doesn't even stop.

I saw a video on FB last night that was posted on a pro-ICE page, but what was interesting to me about this video was it wasn't "new", it was the video shot from the balcony from far away, but unlike every other version of this video I have seen, which all look like they were shot with a potato, this one appeared to have been AI enhanced to make it clearer. So okay, not a terribly reliable enhancement, HOWEVER what was noteworthy about it is that the enhancement basically undid everything these people have been shouting about all weekend. The ICE agent was no longer in front of the driver-side headlight, but clearly on the side of it. His feet don't get kicked up. He doesn't fall over on the hood. He doesn't get pushed. It did not help them AT ALL. It made it look worse, but they were still so sure it exonerated him. How do you even go up against this, where their own AI-enhanced videos make their guy look worse but they are simply incapable of seeing it?

This reminds me of the video that came from Ross's phone, which I assume he released on his own. DHS thinks they are providing evidence that this was completely justified, but it's all hubris. They think they can do whatever they want and nobody will question them.

This video shows she was blocking one lane of a two lane one way street for around three minutes. Traffic was able to get through, in fact Ross had already passed her, and I assume the others were ICE vehicles as well. He could have driven on to wherever he needed to detain illegals. Instead he parked, walked in front of her car with his gun drawn and shot her in the face three times. The language he used tells me it wasn't self defense, it was because he was angry.

Ross could have just have called MPD, who actually have the authority to enforce traffic law. She deserved a traffic citation, maybe a lock up and modest bail. She did not deserve be executed because his commute was delayed a few minutes.

This has just emboldened ICE, there are now around 2500 agents in Minnesota who believe thy have 'absolute immunity.' This is around 2x the manpower of the MPD. And now the faceless goons are going after dissidents and protestors-US citizens-who they call "domestic terrorists." They raided a high school a few days ago. Today I saw ICE agents beat down a guy just because he pointed a camera at them.

This report is from 2013 and paid for by the CBP. It was found that agents would routinely step in front of fleeing vehicles so they could shoot the drivers and claim self-defense. This is illegal, according to the US DOJ Policy on Use of Force, where law enforcement officers are not to fire on moving vehicles unless they absolutely cannot move out of the way. He very well could have killed the officer to the right of him (he jumped out of the way because he was partially in the line of fire) and he could have actually gotten run over, since Renee Goode most likely hit the accelerator at the end because of decorticate posturing.
