The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good earlier this year has reportedly returned to work under certain conditions. This development was quietly disclosed in recent reports.

Jonathan Ross, aged 43, is now engaged in administrative and investigative roles, just a few months after the January 7 incident in Minneapolis where he shot the 37-year-old Good. According to the publication PunchUp, Ross’s return to duty has been handled with little fanfare.

The shooting quickly became a flashpoint of controversy, with conflicting narratives emerging. One perspective claimed Good was attempting to run over Ross, while another stated that she was merely trying to flee the scene.

Following the incident, Ross was initially placed on administrative leave for a brief period of three days before being relocated to a different state, as highlighted in the report.

Officials from the Department of Homeland Security indicated to the media outlet that Ross’s reassignment was partially due to a stagnation in the investigations surrounding Good’s shooting.

The incident is under dual scrutiny, with ICE’s internal affairs conducting an investigation parallel to the ongoing FBI probe, as previously mentioned by the Department of Justice.

But unnamed senior officials claimed Ross’ accountability process was effectively frozen since the internal investigation was paralyzed until the FBI finished its own probe, per the report.

One senior ICE official told the outlet that the FBI needed to ‘s*** or get off the pot.’

Good’s killing became highly publicized, with one side insisting that she was trying to hit Ross with her car and the other claiming she was only driving away

Senior DHS officials claimed that the investigation into Ross’ shooting of Good had effectively been paused

They explained the limbo surrounding Ross had prevented ICE from speaking publicly about the killing or attempting to rebuild public confidence.

Senior DHS officials told the outlet that the White House directed the decision to freeze Minnesota state investigators from federal evidence, as well as the crime scene.

The report claimed that one top official said the investigation into Good’s killing ‘makes us look like idiots.’

For now, Ross has not faced any further action in the mother-of-three’s shooting and remains on active duty.

The Department of Homeland Security said that the fatal shooting remained ‘under investigation.’

‘All shootings are initially reviewed by an appropriate law enforcement agency,’ a DHS spokesperson told the Daily Beast.

‘Following a review of the incident by the appropriate investigative agency, ICE and CBP conduct an independent review of the critical incident,’ the agency added.

FBI agents had launched a civil rights investigation into Ross after Good’s death, according to the Washington Post.

An initial review determined that sufficient grounds existed to open a probe into his actions but it was seemingly never pursued. However, the FBI pushed back against that report and called the claims false.

‘The decisions referenced here were not made by the FBI,’ the agency wrote January 19 on X.

‘The FBI still continues to pursue evidence in this case with our federal partners, investigating the shooting incident as well as the ongoing violent criminal actors and their funding sources,’ the statement continued.

‘The facts are the initiator, and the facts do not support civil rights investigation.’

The Department of Homeland Security previously said that Ross suffered internal bleeding to his torso following the encounter with Good.

Seventeen days after Good’s death, federal officers shot dead nurse Alex Pretti, 37, during the same targeted immigration enforcement operation.

DHS officials said Pretti approached officers with a loaded 9mm semiautomatic handgun, though witness videos from the scene appeared to show Pretti holding his phone up – not a firearm.

Footage suggested that an officer took Pretti’s weapon from his waistband and walked away with it moments before he was killed.

The killings prompted mass protests across the US and ended in DHS Secretary Kristi Noem leaving her position to eventually be replaced by Markwayne Mullin.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, sought confirmation that Ross had not been reassigned to New York

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, reacted to the report of Ross’ reassignment by sending a letter, dated Wednesday, to border czar Tom Homan.

Hochul said she was seeking confirmation that Ross had not been reassigned to New York state.

‘If Jonathan Ross has been reassigned to work in New York, I demand that he be immediately removed and not redeployed unless cleared after a full, independent investigation,’ Hochul wrote in her letter, which was published by Politico.

‘I have no confidence that Ross can be trusted to safely interact with the public,’ she added. ‘Nor should you.’

‘If ICE is truly interested in going after the ‘worst of the worst,’ it should start with accountability for those responsible for the killing of Renee Good,’ Hochul said.

The Daily Mail has reached out to the DHS for further comment.
