A freshly released cell-phone clip of Renee Good’s fatal shooting captures a black dog sitting quietly in the backseat of her Honda Pilot moments before an ICE agent opened fire. The footage, filmed by another officer circling the SUV, shows the window rolled down and the dog watching as Becca Good stood outside speaking with federal agents.
The Shooting
The situation turned deadly when Renee shifted the vehicle into motion. Agent Jonathan Ross responded by firing at the driver. The SUV rolled down the street, crashed, and came to rest behind police tape. A voice behind the camera is heard muttering, “F—ing bitch.”
A neighbor who lives steps from the crash site told News Of Losangeles that Becca immediately realized her wife had been shot in the head. “That’s my wife. They shot her in the f—-ing head, dude. This is ridiculous!” Becca shouted.
Aftermath on the Sidewalk
As SWAT members ordered onlookers to move back, Becca repeatedly cried out for her wife. She then remembered the dog, pleading, “There’s a dog in the back. Can someone get it for me, please?” A neighbor helped retrieve the animal, and Becca sat on a nearby stoop clutching the pet while officers assessed the scene.
Key details from the witness:
- Becca said the couple had recently relocated to Minneapolis
- They have a 6-year-old child enrolled in local schools
- The dog appeared unharmed and remained calm throughout
Becca Good’s Statement
Two days after the shooting, Becca released a public letter describing the couple’s hopes for their new life in Minnesota. “We made friends and spread joy,” she wrote. “Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever.”
She explained that they had stopped that Wednesday “to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns.”
Renee, who had three children from two previous marriages, suffered gunshot wounds to the head, according to ABC News, citing city officials. Although video shows officers preventing a doctor from approaching her, she was later transported to a hospital and pronounced dead.
Becca ended her statement by vowing to honor Renee’s values: “rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.”
