ICE Agent's 'Dragging' Case May Help Expose Evidence in Renee Good Shooting

WIRED

ICE Agent's'Dragging' Case May Help Expose Evidence in Renee Good Shooting The government has withheld details of the investigation of Renee Good's killing--but an unrelated case involving the ICE agent who shot her could force new revelations. Defense attorneys for a Minnesota man convicted in December of assaulting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross are seeking access to investigative files related to the killing of Renee Nicole Good, after learning Ross was the same officer who shot and killed her during a targeted operation in Minneapolis last month. Attorneys for Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala asked a federal judge on Friday to order prosecutors to turn over training records as well as investigative files related to Ross, the ICE agent who killed Good on January 7 during Operation Metro Surge and was also injured in a June 2025 incident in which Muñoz-Guatemala dragged him with his car. A separate post-trial motion by the defense, filed in the US District Court in Minnesota, asks the judge to pause deadlines for a new-trial motion until the discovery motion is resolved. Muñoz-Guatemala's attorneys argue that even if the court ultimately decides that any newly discovered evidence doesn't entitle their client to a new trial, he's entitled to explore whether there are mitigating factors that could impact the length of his sentence, such as whether Ross' injuries could have been, to some degree, brought upon him by his own behavior.


How to Film ICE

WIRED

Filming federal agents in public is legal, but avoiding a dangerous--even deadly--confrontation isn't guaranteed. Here's how to record ICE and CBP agents as safely as possible and have an impact. In January 2026, two Americans were killed in the act of watching Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations in Minneapolis. Renee Nicole Good was acting as a legal observer while her wife recorded the federal immigration agents they encountered. Alex Pretti was holding a phone in his hand, filming the agents who would soon take his life.


Immigration Agents Are Killing and Abusing People. So Civilians Are Turning to a Controversial Tool to Find Justice.

Slate

Users Civilians Are Using A.I. to Unmask ICE Agents. Websites like ICEList are attempting to hold federal agents accountable--but it's unclear whether they make the system safer or more dangerous. After federal immigration officers shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, social media users called for the unmasking of the agents responsible. On X, users shared photos of the agents involved. It didn't take long before A.I.-generated pictures made their appearance: One user posted a seemingly deepfaked picture of a masked ICE agent, writing, "This is one of the soulless lowlife ghouls who executed Alex Pretti in cold blood!

Al Jazeera

Are ICE agents trained to use'deadly force' and evade lawsuits? In the weeks since United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, Minnesota, another ICE agent shot a Latino man in the leg, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Good's killing and the subsequent shooting have ignited a wave of calls and queries about whether ICE officers can be prosecuted.

No, ICE (Probably) Didn't Buy Guided Missile Warheads A federal contracting database lists an ICE payment for $61,218 with the payment code "guided missile warheads and explosive components." But it appears ICE simply entered the wrong code. On September 19, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement made a $61,218 payment for "guided missile warheads and explosive components," according to the Product and Service Code (PSC) included in the payment record on a federal contracting database. "This award provides multiple distraction devices to support law enforcement operations and ICE-Office of Firearms and Tactical Programs," the record's description section reads. The Substack Popular Information mentioned this payment in a Monday article, which focused on the fact that ICE spending in the "small arms, ordnance, and ordnance accessories manufacturing" product category increased by 700 percent between 2024 and 2025.
