Wednesday’s fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer has brough even more national attention to arrest and deportation efforts and more national attention still to the state of Minnesota after seemingly countless fraud schemes in the Somali population were exposed.
On the former, media members and the public alike took to dissecting Wednesday’s footage of Good’s altercation with ICE as she tried to stop officers from doing their jobs, parking her car in the street and refusing to move it.
Good’s last moments as she tried to drive into an officer have been the subject of intense debate as to what her intentions actually were, but another telling moment from her partner reveals why she was trying to stop ICE in the first place.
According to the New York Post, Good’s partner, in the immediate aftermath, was heard saying, “I made her come down here, it’s my fault.”
“They just shot my wife,” she added.
