Following a fatal incident involving ICE in Minneapolis, where a woman lost her life on Wednesday, scholars have added their voices to the left-leaning activists advocating for the dissolution of the federal law enforcement body.

“Eliminating ICE is actually a centrist stance,” remarked Victor Ray, who serves as an associate professor specializing in sociology, criminology, and African American studies at the University of Iowa.

Ray, in a social media post, labeled the shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good as a “murder,” although no formal murder charges have been filed in the case.

Additionally, he shared a provocative comment from “Jeopardy!” host Ken Jennings, who declared, “I would support the candidate advocating for prosecuting the previous administration at every level in 2028.”

Meanwhile, at George Washington University, David Karpf, an associate professor from the media and public affairs department, expressed criticism of the United States in light of the shooting.

“Most days, it doesn’t really feel like this country is gonna make it,” he said on Bluesky. “Today it doesn’t feel like it deserves to.”

In response to a story by Minnesota Public Radio, which quoted federal agents as saying the ICE officer who shot Good was “fearing for his life,” Karpf replied, “Let him tell that s— to a jury and then rot in prison for the rest of his life.”

He also reposted Jennings’ call to prosecute “the former regime” after President Donald Trump leaves office.

“I watched a video of government agents murdering a woman. It left me feeling shocked and sad, and I expressed that shock and sadness,” Karpf told Fox News Digital. “I think enforcement of immigration law should not include government agents murdering unarmed citizens.”

When prompted whether “murder” was the proper term, given that nobody has been charged with murder, Karpf clarified.

“I watched what appeared to me to be a government agent murdering a woman. It left me feeling shocked and sad,” he said.

Seva Gunitsky is an associate professor of political science at the University of Toronto, but clarified for Fox News Digital that he is a U.S. citizen.

“[A]bolish ICE is the moderate position to be honest. [W]hichever candidate promises to nuremberg the [ICE] agents has my vote at this point,” he said on Bluesky.

“Nuremberg” references the post-World War II trials of Nazis and Nazi collaborators, who were tried for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide. A dozen Nazi leaders were hanged after the Nuremberg trials. Left-wing activists have long compared ICE agents to Nazis and the Gestapo.

“To ‘nuremberg’ the ICE agents means to put them on trial,” Gunitsky told Fox News Digital. “Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

Gunitsky did not respond when asked about what crimes ICE agents should be tried for. 

The University of Toronto told Fox News Digital that Gunitsky’s response was sufficient, and did not comment further.

George Washington University did not return a request for comment.

Neither Ray nor the University of Iowa returned requests for comment.
