Was shooting of Renée Good by ICE agent in Minneapolis justified? [ONLINE]

On January 7, 2026, Renée Good, a 37-year-old American citizen, was fatally shot in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Jonathan Ross. Good was in her car, stopped sideways in the street when Ross drove around it and then walked back and around her vehicle. Other agents approached, and one ordered her to get out of the car while reaching through her open window. Good briefly reversed, then began moving forward and to the right, into the direction of traffic. At this point, Ross was standing at the front-left of the vehicle and fired three shots, killing her, as her vehicle passed him, turning away from him. The killing sparked national protests and multiple investigations.

Videos of the incident have been released by witnesses as well as by the shooter himself. Millions of Americans have watched the videos and have come to opposite conclusions about whether or not the shooter was justified in shooting Good on the grounds of self-defense.

At our meeting, we are going to watch these videos together and debate whether they show that ICE agent Ross was or was not justified in shooting Good in self-defense.

As far as I am aware, there is no video available in which you can see Good while she is being shot.

At the end of the meeting, a vote will be held on the question in the title, and everyone will get a chance to explain how they came to their conclusion.
