The killing of Renée Nicole Good by a federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent this January in Minneapolis represents a chilling escalation in the use of force by immigration authorities — and a stark reminder that federal enforcement tactics are out of step with both community safety and civil rights.

Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and mother of three, was shot and killed by an ICE officer on January 7, 2026, during an enforcement operation in Minneapolis. Federal officials have characterized the incident as a justified use of force, claiming Good attempted to “weaponize” her vehicle in a way that posed a threat. Yet eyewitness accounts and bystander videos tell a different story: Good’s vehicle was moving away from the agents when the officer fired multiple shots through the windshield and side window, resulting in her death.
