The contents of Renee Good's glove compartment have been revealed after she was shot and killed by an ICE agent.
Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, which has ignited widespread condemnation across the country.
The actions of the shooter, who has since been revealed as Jonathon Ross, have also been praised by Donald Trump and his administration.
Renee Good's Glove Compartment
Rep. Eric Swalwell displayed images at a House Judiciary Committee hearing that displayed the contents of Good's glove compartment at the time she was shot.
He described her as a "37-year-old mum with three kids," who was "not a terrorist".
Swalwall described how there was no weapon in the glove compartment, just stuffed animals that resembles the glove compartments of many parents across the country.
"She had a baby to go home to," he continued. "A six-year-old who is now orphaned, who lost his father two years ago."
He addressed those supporting the shooting, saying: "You want to root on, and cheer for her being shot in the face three times?"
Trump Administration Doubles Down
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is standing firm behind the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, doubling down on claims that it was self-defense and labeling the incident “an act of domestic terrorism,” per The Guardian.
During a Thursday morning press conference in New York City, Noem didn’t back down from the department’s stance and even said she was “not opposed” to sending more federal agents to Minneapolis in the wake of the shooting.
Noem also claimed Good had been “following and harassing” the agents during enforcement activity, and echoed earlier DHS statements that she “used her vehicle as a weapon” and tried to run over the officer who shot her.
Vice President JD Vance referred to Good's death as "classic terrorism."
He continued: “Everybody who’s been repeating the lie that this is some innocent woman who was out for a drive in Minneapolis when a law enforcement officer shot at her, you should be ashamed of yourself.”
Video Shows Good Was Trying To Flee
Contrary to the cries of Trump and his followers, videos online paint a picture of a scared woman attempting to flee a hostile situation.
In the clip, Good’s SUV is seen clipping the officer before he fires multiple shots at close range through her vehicle’s windows.
He discharged one through her front windscreen, and two further shots through her side window when he was safely out of the way.
Seconds later, her car crashes into a parked white vehicle about 100 feet away.
Online reactions have been blunt and emotional.
“Murder. Plain and simple. There are times we can no longer stay silent. This is the time. This is murder,” one viewer wrote.
Another comment read: “That wasn’t self defence. That was retaliation/anger that she was getting away. They should all prosecuted.”
On Reddit, one user analyzed the video frame-by-frame: "THE WHEELS ARE FULLY TURNED AWAY FROM THE OFFICER. Watch in SLOW MO. No intention IMO to hit anyone. Sole intention based on wheel/steering wheel to LEAVE the scene NOT A THREAT. Look at the wheel."
