Investigation launched into Renee Good's wife for 'impeding' agents
Share this @internewscast.com

Federal authorities have initiated a probe into Renee Good’s spouse amid allegations of obstructing an ICE officer shortly before Good’s fatal encounter, according to insider information.

On January 7, in Minneapolis, 37-year-old Good was fatally shot in the face three times through her car window by ICE agent Jonathan Ross after she allegedly defied orders to exit her vehicle.

Sources connected to the investigation revealed to NBC News that the Justice Department is proceeding with an inquiry into Good’s bereaved partner, Rebecca.

This investigation is said to concentrate on Rebecca’s affiliations with activist organizations and her actions before Good’s death, as reported.

The development follows the resignation of at least six federal prosecutors who stepped down in protest over directives to investigate Rebecca.

Previously, Donald Trump labeled the pair as ‘professional agitators,’ while Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem characterized Good’s behavior as ‘domestic terrorism.’

In footage that swept social media capturing the moments leading up to the shooting, Rebecca appeared to struggle with the car door before telling her wife to ‘drive’ as an ICE agent attempted to coax Good from her vehicle.

Witnesses said the couple had attended the protest to film and act as legal observers, and the footage showed Rebecca confronting and taunting ICE agents seconds before they opened fire.

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

Good’s Lawyer told NBC News ‘there has been no contact from the FBI or federal officials indicating Becca Good is the subject of an investigation.’ 

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who has been hit with his own DOJ investigation this week over his anti-ICE rhetoric, has criticized the federal government’s handling of the investigation into Good’s death. 

‘The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her,’ he said. 

Six federal prosecutors previously resigned after they were ordered by the US Attorney’s Office in Minnesota to look into Rebecca Good. 

Joe Thompson, the former acting US Attorney of Minnesota and the lead in the Feeding Our Future food fraud case, was one of the major names who submitted his resignation. 

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz spoke out about Thompson’s resignation and the swath of others that followed. 

‘Joe is a principled public servant who spent more than a decade achieving justice for Minnesotans. This is a huge loss for our state,’ he wrote on X.

‘It’s also the latest sign Trump is pushing nonpartisan career professionals out of the justice department, replacing them with his sycophants.’

Assistant US Attorneys Harry Jacobs, Thomas Calhoun-Lopez and Melinda Williams, among others, followed suit.

The Justice Department has also launched an investigation in Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey. 

Officials allege the Democrat pair conspired to impede federal agents through public statements. 

Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly sent out a memo in December, emphasizing the Justice Department’s mission to stop ‘domestic terrorism’ by investigating groups with an ‘anti-fascist platform.’

Bondi provided a list of statutes with which to charge ‘culpable actors,’ including impeding federal officers, which Rebecca, Walz and Frey have been accused of.

Assaulting, resisting or impeding federal officers is punishable by up to 20 years in prison if the offense includes the use of a ‘deadly or dangerous weapon,’ according to Cornell Law.

As the federal government looks to probe Good’s widow, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has said there was ‘currently no basis’ for an investigation into Ross.

Those familiar with the investigation reportedly told The New York Times that the civil rights division of the Department of Justice, which typically investigates police-involved shootings, has not opened a probe into whether Ross violated Good’s rights under federal law.

Ross is ‘increasingly unlikely’ to face criminal charges, the Times reported.
