“Fcking bitch,” Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good, says in the video.*

A newly released cellphone video, apparently filmed by the ICE officer who killed Renee Nicole Good, and obtained by Minneapolis-based Alpha News, a conservative-leaning nonprofit news site, appears to sharply contradict the U.S. government’s public account of the fatal Wednesday shooting, raising new questions about whether the agent who opened fire was ever in immediate danger.

The footage was recorded on a cellphone by ICE officer Jonathan Ross, not by a department body camera. It captures Ross’s own perspective as he approaches Good’s maroon Honda Pilot during what the Department of Homeland Security claims was a federal operation in south Minneapolis.

You really can't miss a 9mm going off in your hand. He knew he fired

[–] Ecc911@lemmy.world -3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

True. He definitely fired and he was at close range, but I've shot a 9mm at a target from close range too. Normally it doesn't explode, so I have to take just a second to find the hole. His shot went through a window, cracking it and further obscuring the driver. Is it possible he didn't know he had absolutely killed her or is that just crazy talk?

He fired ONE round through her windshield. He fired TWO rounds through her open driver's side windows right into her head.

He then watched her slump over the steering wheel and the car accelerate away where it crashed into a post, as he called after it 'fuckin' bitch'

The videos are out there, it's almost like you are being purposefully obtuse I wonder why HMMM

I believe they call this "JAQing off" (Just Asking Questions)

[–] Ecc911@lemmy.world -4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Hey sry man, I'm just not seeing what you're describing in those videos. It isn't quite that clear. You might just be right, but I'm just asking some questions. Doesn't make me a nazi or something, no matter what you seem to think.

You're here in bad faith, your account is a month old and exclusively has comments defending ice murders.

[–] SirActionSack@aussie.zone 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is it possible he didn't know he had absolutely killed her

Irrelevant. He shot at her head multiple times from close range. Everything else you're bringing up is just typical bootlicker distraction.

[–] Ecc911@lemmy.world -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Not really. That first shot was almost justifiable because he was hit by the car immediately after the wife screamed "drive, baby, drive!", but the next 2 shots were definitely indefensible. Can we have a discussion before you call me a bootlicker? If you knew me, you definitely wouldn't say that. Seems like you're the bad faith actor here, just sayin.

[–] SirActionSack@aussie.zone 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can we have a discussion before you call me a bootlicker?

No, because you're defending a dude shooting someone for no reason.

No, because you're defending the violence of a group who are going around masked and unmarked killing and abducting people without cause.

Bootlicker.

[–] Ecc911@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago

This is kinda ironic, because people are also calling me obtuse for asking some questions, which is quite the opposite of the definition. I'm not on either "side" and I definitely don't agree with Trump or his administration, but that doesn't seem to matter. Anyone who actually knows me IRL knows all that, but if I don't agree with you 100% or have some questions, I'm a nazi bootlicker defending violence and fascists(which is pretty extreme when we've only exchanged a few words). If I met you on the street, I'd offer to buy you a beer and talk for a bit, but that isn't even an option on the table in your mind.

I once worked at the Logansport state mental hospital in Indiana. There was a guy who had a rottweiler stuffed animal and would get very upset if he didn't have it. I tried a few times to ask him about other dogs. He would listen and then just repeat what he knew about rottweilers again, verbatim, no matter what questions I would ask or pictures of other types of dogs, etc. I wasn't even trying to change his mind, just understand his processing a little better, but he was not capable of having that depth of communication with another human being. This reminds me of that.

Yea in a crowded situation like that I'd think so, but in a crowd like that, you felt the kick where did it go? You sort of need to assume someone is shot
