“Fcking bitch,” Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good, says in the video.*

A newly released cellphone video, apparently filmed by the ICE officer who killed Renee Nicole Good, and obtained by Minneapolis-based Alpha News, a conservative-leaning nonprofit news site, appears to sharply contradict the U.S. government’s public account of the fatal Wednesday shooting, raising new questions about whether the agent who opened fire was ever in immediate danger.

The footage was recorded on a cellphone by ICE officer Jonathan Ross, not by a department body camera. It captures Ross’s own perspective as he approaches Good’s maroon Honda Pilot during what the Department of Homeland Security claims was a federal operation in south Minneapolis.

    He was going to check her plates.

    Regardless of if that led to anything, it’s an intimidation factor due to the belief law enforcement can then not only get all your info, but they can be on the lookout for you on plate scanners.

    It does look like they were there intentionally though, so I do understand why Republicans think it’s proves them right. To them anything besides she had just pulled out of her own driveway would be justification.

    Everyone else tho, don’t think peaceful protesting should deserve an immediate death sentence
