Crystal-clear new footage shows the moments leading up to the killing of Renee Nicole Good, filmed by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent who shot her.

Good, 37, could be seen smiling at Jonathan ‘Jon’ Ross while sitting in her Honda Pilot on Wednesday afternoon and saying, ‘That’s fine dude. I’m not mad,’ in a video shot by the officer that was obtained by Minnesota outlet Alpha News.

Her wife, Rebecca Good, 40, could be heard urging the agent to ‘show his face’ as she asks him, ‘You want to come at us?’

‘You want to come at us? I say go get yourself some lunch big boy,’ Rebecca said, with her own cellphone in hand. ‘Go ahead.’

As the tension mounted on the Minneapolis street, Good was told to get out of the car but ignored the order.

She began revving the engine and drove off during what the Trump administration says was part of a protest against the planned detention of Somali migrants in the area.

Rebecca can be heard shouting ‘drive baby, drive’ as Ross’s camera jerked. It is unclear if he was struck by the car or jumped to get out of its way.

Ross fired three shots, including one through the front windshield of the Honda, which struck and killed Good. An agent is heard calling Good a ‘f***ing bitch’ as shots rang out.

Moments later, her car crashed into the back of two vehicles parked nearby. The shocking chain of events quickly divided the United States.

Ross’s cellphone footage was unveiled just hours after surveillance footage was released, showing how Good apparently blocked the road with her SUV for four minutes before she was shot dead.

The video shows how about 20 seconds after the mother of three’s maroon Honda Pilot pulled up to the street, a passenger – believed to be her wife Rebecca Good – exited the vehicle and eventually began filming. 

Good then repositioned the SUV, seemingly blocking the street. The grainy video, however, shows that other cars were still able to pass around her.

Ross then arrived on the scene and was quickly joined by other federal agents who surrounded Good’s vehicle.

A federal agent began to grab at her door, allegedly ordering her to get out of the SUV. Good seemingly pulled the car forward and Ross fired three shots at her in quick succession, before she drove off.

Neither of the newly released videos show the immediate aftermath of the deadly shooting in which Good lost control at the wheel and crashed.

There is speculation that Rebecca, who admitted to bringing her spouse to the anti-ICE protest, exited the car so she could begin filming any potential clash with federal agents. She was seen wielding her camera during Ross’s confrontation with her wife but it is unclear when she first started to record.

As the radical left continues to use the death of Renee Nicole Good to fuel their anti-ICE narrative, a surprising voice has emerged from within her own family circle, suggesting the fatal encounter could have been avoided if she hadn’t injected herself into a high-stakes federal operation.

Good, 37, was shot and killed Wednesday morning in Minneapolis after she “weaponized” her vehicle against federal agents.

While the mainstream media and local Democrat politicians like Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey have rushed to martyr Good, calling her a “legal observer” and “peaceful neighbor,” those who knew her are offering a much more complicated picture.

In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail, Joseph Macklin, the former brother-in-law of the deceased, didn’t hold back.

He suggested that Good had no business being at the scene of the ICE raid in the first place.

“She had no reason to be there, in my opinion. It had nothing to do with her,” Macklin told the outlet. “She shouldn’t have been in the way. She had nothing to do with the ICE agents or immigration, so she shouldn’t have been there. She should have minded her own business.”

Joseph said Good had three children, including a six-year-old son she shared with his brother, Tim Macklin Jr., an Air Force veteran who tragically died in 2023.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem and President Trump have stood firmly behind the agents, describing the incident as an act of “self-defense” against “domestic terrorism.”

According to federal officials, Good was not merely “driving home” from a school drop-off, as her ex-husband claimed.

DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin stated that Good had been “stalking and impeding” ICE’s work throughout the day before eventually attempting to run over an officer with her SUV.

Yesterday, several videos went viral of Renee Nicole Macklin Good blocking ICE from driving down a neighborhood street in Minneapolis with a vehicle during an ICE raid.

In one of the videos, several ICE agents are seen approaching the vehicle where Good was sitting in the driver’s seat. Her Honda SUV was parked perpendicular to traffic.

Two ICE agents approach the window of the vehicle and demand that she move. She backs up, repositions her tires so she is aiming directly at the ICE agent standing to her right, and points her vehicle at the ICE agent in front of her.

In the video, she appears to accelerate, and her vehicle appears to be moving toward the ICE agent. The ICE agent in front of her vehicle then opens fire at Ms. Good.

The 37-year-old Renee Nicole Macklin Good was killed by the gunshots fired by the ICE agent who appeared to be in her path.

According to a report by the Daily Mail, Jon Ross, the ICE agent who reportedly shot Nicole Macklin Good Ross is an ‘experienced’ officer, sources told the Minneapolis Star Tribune, but last year suffered gruesome injuries in Bloomington, MN, as he tried to arrest an illegal immigrant sex offender.

‘He’s the same ICE agent who got dragged by car 50 feet back in June, so he has a history,’ an FBI agent who spoke to the Daily Mail on condition of anonymity confirmed.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, led anti-ICE convoys. She wanted to disrupt their operations. It got her killed. In Minneapolis, Minnesota, yesterday, Good rammed into ICE agents who opened fire and killed her. It was a justified shooting. The other angles clearly show Good ramming an agent. Second, even if she didn’t, it still constitutes assault. 

Amy Swearer, a Senior Legal Fellow in the Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies, reviewed the video footage and came to this conclusion: It was a justified use of deadly force 

I’ve now watched the Minneapolis ICE shooting from three different angles, and there’s no real question — it was quite obviously a legally justified use of deadly force by a law enforcement officer. That officer faced an unknown subject who, while ignoring lawful commands, pointed a 3000+ lbs. car at him and evidenced an intent to continue driving that car. He shot the driver (1) after the driver made physical contact with his body and (2) through the front windshield. You can slow down the video all you want and spend minutes analyzing micro-seconds to make after-the-fact assessments of the likelihood the driver actually intended to use the car as a lethal weapon. In reality, during those micro-seconds in real time, it’s reasonable to presume that a driver ignoring your commands to stop is about to floor the gas peddle, turn the wheel into you, and run you over. It’s no different than the reasonable presumption that the suspect who ignores your commands to keep their hands up and reaches for the gun in their waistband intends to use it against you rather than toss it away.

On Wednesday, an anti-ICE protester thought it would be a good idea to attempt to run over ICE agents in Minneapolis. She learned the hard way that attacking a federal law enforcement officer is not a good idea, and officers wound up shooting and killing her.

Ever since, the left has been gaslighting the public, claiming that the ICE agent shot her without provocation, that he wasn’t in front of the car when she hit the gas, that she was just turning her vehicle when she was shot, and that she wasn’t even involved in the anti-ICE protests.

An eyewitness to the incident has completely blown apart the left’s false narratives and even directly contradicted claims from the victim’s own mother that she had nothing to do with the protest that turned violent.

The woman who was killed was identified as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. After her death, Good’s mother insisted that her daughter was “not part of anything like that at all” when it came to the anti-ICE protests.

The witness account tells a very different story, one that places Good at the center of an organized effort to obstruct federal agents.

The witness said the incident began early in the morning after hearing an unusual noise outside.

“I woke up to some commotion. I heard some whistles going on out front, so I came downstairs to see what was going on,” the witness said.

The scene quickly came into focus. Traffic was blocked, and Good’s vehicle was positioned to halt movement entirely.

“There was a car, the Honda Pilot, that’s crashed over there now,” the witness explained. “There was a car blocking the two lanes of Portland traffic.”

According to the witness, ICE agents exited their vehicles and ordered Good to leave the area. The witness described Good actively maneuvering her vehicle during the confrontation.
