Jonathan E. Ross, an ICE agent and 10-year veteran, has been identified as the officer who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother, during an immigration sweep in Minneapolis on Wednesday. The shooting sparked protests and criticism from Minnesota officials, with some Democrats threatening to withhold DHS funding. Federal officials initially refused to identify the agent, but the Minneapolis Star Tribune named Ross on Thursday. DHS defended the agent's actions, while Governor Walz expressed concern about a fair investigation due to the FBI's refusal to involve local law enforcement. Officials claim Good blocked agents with her vehicle, while videos show her attempting to leave the scene when the agent fired shots.
