Greg Bovino, the prominent figure behind Donald Trump’s stringent immigration policies, has commended ICE agent Jonathan Ross for his actions during the incident involving the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good.

In a conversation with Fox News on Monday, the Border Patrol leader addressed the rising tensions and recent video evidence that has surfaced since Good’s death, showing interactions between her, her wife, and Ross.

Bovino pointed out that the behavior of Good and her wife, Rebecca, prior to the shooting, demonstrated “means, intent, and opportunity,” a framework commonly used in law enforcement to evaluate the justification for using force.

He questioned, “Did that individual have the intent?” urging viewers to consider the moments leading up to the shooting, which he believes reveal significant intent.

Bovino further described Good’s car as a “four-thousand-pound missile” aimed at Ross, indicating that she possessed both the opportunity and the capability to pose a threat to the agent.

He then describes Good’s vehicle as a ‘four-thousand pound missile’ headed toward Ross and surmises that she also had the opportunity and the means to attack Ross. 

‘A four-thousand pound missile is not something anyone wants to face, especially in a split second decision-making process in a very inhospitable environment,’ Bovino said.

He concluded: ‘Hats off to that ICE agent, I’m glad he made it out alive, I’m glad he’s with his family.’

Democrats have almost universally condemned Ross for the shooting, with liberal celebrities even wearing pins in honor of Good at Sunday’s Golden Globes. 

But Ross has the full support of the Trump administration, who argue he acted in self-defense when it appeared Good intended to run him down with her car. 

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and other Trump administration officials have defended Ross as an experienced law enforcement professional who followed his training and shot Good after he believed she was trying to run him or other agents over with her vehicle.

But video has raised questions about whether the shooting was in self-defense, and the FBI is investigating the deadly use of force. Some protesters are demanding that Ross face criminal charges, and Minnesota authorities also want to investigate.

Recordings of the shooting show an officer approaching Good’s stopped SUV. He grabbed the driver’s door handle as he allegedly demanded she open the door. 

Her Honda Pilot began to pull forward and Ross pulled his weapon, immediately firing three shots and jumping back as the vehicle moved toward him.

It is not clear from the videos if the vehicle made contact with Ross. After the shooting, the SUV slammed into two cars parked on a curb before crashing to a stop.

Newly released surveillance video showed how Good apparently blocked the road with her SUV for four minutes before she was killed.

About 20 seconds after Good pulled up to the street, a passenger – believed to be her wife Rebecca Good – exited the vehicle and eventually began filming. 

There is now 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.

Witnesses have claimed Good and Rebecca were acting as legal observers and filming the protest. 

The mother-of-three allegedly became involved in the community at her six-year-old son’s charter school and it’s local ‘ICE Watch’ group, which is a coalition of activists who seek to disrupt immigration raids.

Rebecca, in a harrowing footage captured at the scene, admitted she encouraged Good to confront agents. ‘I made her come down here, it’s my fault,’ she cried. 

But Good’s mother Donna Ganger has denied reports that her daughter would have been ‘part of anything like’ the protests against ICE that were taking place at the location where she was killed. 

The GoFundMe campaign to support Good’s wife, Rebecca, as well as Good’s children amassed more than 38,500 donations in the four days since it was started.

Meanwhile, a separate fundraiser for Jonathan Ross has raised over $300,000, with help from hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman 

Funds poured in quickly after Ross shot Good three times in quick succession on Wednesday afternoon after she allegedly ignored ICE agents’ demands to get out of her SUV.

The crowdfunder sought $50,000 to support the Good family as they ‘grapple with the devastating loss of their wife and mother’.

But the campaign raised more than 28 times the requested amount, with one anonymous donor alone generously contributing $50,000.

The funds will now be put in a trust for the family, including Good’s six-year-old son, who was left orphaned by the tragedy, organizers shared in an update on Friday as they announced they were closing the fundraiser.

‘If you’re looking to donate, we encourage you to support others in need,’ the organizers said. 

Meanwhile, a separate fundraiser for Ross has raised over $300,000, with help from hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman.

Clyde Emmons, the organizer of Ross’s fundraiser, described Good as a ‘domestic terrorist’ and claimed that the officer’s actions were ‘1,000 percent justified’.

‘Funds will go to help pay for any legal services this officer needs,’ Emmons, who is based in Michigan, wrote. 

Ross is an Iraq War veteran who has served for nearly two decades in the Border Patrol and ICE, according to records. He has been a deportation officer since 2015.

He was seriously injured last summer when he was dragged by the car of a fleeing illegal immigrant sex offender whom he shot with a stun gun while trying to arrest him.

The previous incident in which took place in Bloomington, Minnesota and left Ross with injuries that required 33 stitches.
