"The woman shot and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis on Wednesday was Renee Nicole Macklin Good, a 37-year-old mother of three who had recently moved to Minnesota. She was a U.S. citizen born in Colorado and appears to never have been charged with anything involving law enforcement beyond a traffic ticket. In social media accounts, Macklin Good described herself as a "poet and writer and wife and mom.""
"Video taken by bystanders posted to social media shows an officer approaching her car, demanding she open the door and grabbing the handle. When she begins to pull forward, a different ICE officer standing in front of the vehicle pulls his weapon and immediately fires at least two shots into the vehicle at close range. In another video taken after the shooting, a distraught woman is seen sitting near the vehicle, wailing, "That's my wife, I don't know what to do!""
Renee Nicole Macklin Good, 37, a mother of three who recently moved to Minneapolis, was shot and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer. She was a U.S. citizen born in Colorado and appears to have had no law enforcement charges beyond a traffic ticket. Social media showed her describing herself as a poet, writer, wife and mom and sharing personal posts. An ex-husband said she had just dropped off their 6-year-old son and was driving with her current partner when they encountered ICE agents on a snowy street. Bystander videos show officers approaching the car and an officer firing multiple close-range shots as the vehicle moved. A distraught partner is heard wailing after the shooting. Trump administration officials characterized her actions as an attempt to ram federal agents, while family members disputed activist motives.
