ICE Sh00ting VictimRenee Nicole GoodGoFundMe Campaign Receives Over $1M In Donations
A GoFundMecampaign benefiting the wife and son of Renee Nicole Good — who was sh0t by an ICE officer in Minneapolis Wednesday morning — received more than $550,000 in donations within 24 hours of her d3ath. By Thursday afternoon, it had surpassed the $1 million mark.
The fundraiser was organized to support Good’s loved ones as they “grapple with the devastating loss of their wife and mother.” She’s described as “pure sunshine, pure love” in the description, which originally had a goal of $50,000.
Good was sh0t when ICE agents approached her SUV in traffic on a residential street in Minneapolis, and apparently directed her to exit the vehicle. Good backed up her Honda Pilot and moved forward, and an agent fired several sh0ts into the car at point-blank range. Trump admin officials claim the officer sh0t in self-defense; that account is disputed by Minnesota officials and others who have viewed multiple videos of the incident.
The 37-year-old woman was struck in the head, and she was later pronounced d3ad at a local hospital. Her mother identified her to the Minnesota Star Tribune.
The FBI has begun investigating the circumstances of the sh00ting … but state investigators have been denied access to evidence, according to the AP.
A community vigil was held for Good at the scene of the sh00ting later Wednesday night, attended by thousands of people.
The sh00ting has resulted a political firestorm … Kristi Noem claimed the ICE agent who sh0t Good was acting in self-defense, the mayor of Minneapolis and the Minnesota governor have disputed the administration’s description of the encounter and the necessity for the agent’s use of force.
