Federal authorities on Thursday identified Jonathan Ross as the ICE agent who shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, a revelation that has only intensified scrutiny of the shooting and the Trump administration’s response. As critics demand murder charges and video evidence undercuts official claims of self-defense, top officials — including the vice president — have rushed to argue Ross is protected by “absolute immunity,” and have repeatedly mentioned a prior car-related incident in which he was injured during an ICE raid. Little else is publicly known about Ross beyond claims that he is an “experienced” officer and possibly an Iraq War veteran, but the administration’s effort to frame his past trauma as justification has fueled outrage as questions mount over why a mother, unarmed and inside her vehicle after a school drop-off, was shot multiple times.
