A new 3 1/2-minute bystander video released by the Department of Homeland Security provides critical context to the fatal shooting of Renee Good by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis, detailing the moments leading up to the controversial incident.
A recently released 3 1/2-minute bystander video, posted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, sheds new light on the events preceding a federal immigration officer's fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis. The footage, filmed on a snowy street, captures federal officers and vehicles as Good's red SUV repeatedly blares its horn amidst a cacophony of whistles. After over a minute, Good is seen pulling her SUV back slightly, unblocking the road and appearing to wave cars past. Her wife is also visible outside the SUV. The video then shows a dark truck with a flashing light stopping near Good's vehicle, from which two officers exit and approach her car before the video goes dark. This new evidence intensifies the national debate over whether the officer's actions constituted self-defense or recklessness, with other previously released videos reportedly showing the shooting itself.
