Protests are set to resume Thursday morning after Renee Good‘s fatal shooting by an ICE officer, with activists and faith leaders staging consecutive rallies outside the Federal Building.
Morning Demonstrations
Najee Ali‘s civil-rights coalition gathers at 9 a.m. to call for the shooter’s immediate arrest.
At 10 a.m., CLUE Justice-a clergy-lay alliance supporting low-wage workers and immigrants-will “denounce” the shooting.
Overnight Anger in L.A.
About 80 people rallied Wednesday night at Placita Olvera, chanting and carrying signs:
- “Stop ICE terror now!”
- “ICE out of our communities”
Organizers told the Daily News the officer should be charged with murder.
Political Fallout
Rep. Robert Garcia, top Democrat on House Oversight, vowed an immediate investigation:
> “Oversight Democrats are demanding answers on what happened.”
California lawmakers lined up to condemn the killing:
- Rep. Derek Tran: “A profound failure of justice… lethal incompetence.”
- State Sen. María Elena Durazo: “ICE is carrying out violent and warrantless armed raids.”
- Assemblymember Juan Carrillo: “Enforcement turns violent, no one is safe.”
- Assemblymember Mark González: “A public execution, not self-defense.”
Conflicting Accounts
Federal officials say the agent fired in self-defense after Good tried to run officers over with her car.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey countered:
> “A federal agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying.”
Presidential Reaction
President Donald Trump posted a graphic video summary, blaming the victim and “Radical Left” agitators:
> “The woman driving the car… violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer.”
Key Takeaways
- Twin protests kick off at 9 & 10 a.m. demanding the ICE officer’s arrest
- Local and federal officials offer starkly different versions of the shooting
- Congressional Democrats promise swift oversight
- Good’s death fuels calls to scale back or abolish ICE operations in U.S. cities
