The father of Renee Good’s

There are surely very few people the world over who have seen the harrowing footage of Renee Good’s fatal shooting and not formed an opinion one way or another.

The 37-year-old mother was shot by an ICE officer during an interaction last week in Minneapolis. Reports claim Good had been obstructing ICE agents with her vehicle, while video footage seemingly confirmed she was trying to flee when ICE officer Jonathan Ross opened fire.

Ross, positioned in front of Good’s car as she tried to drive away, fired three shots into the vehicle, killing Good before muttering “f****g b***h” as she drove away and crashed.

The horrifying incident has proven to be a catalyst for heated debate online, while high-profile figures on either side of the U.S.’s political divide continue to fiercely argue their respective stances.

The Department of Homeland Security were quick to label Good a “domestic terrorist”, a sentiment echoed by President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

The stance of the Trump administration very much appears to be that Good was trying to run over ICE agents, thereby enabling Ross (the officer who shot her dead) to claim that his actions were in self-defense.

Others, meanwhile, including the Mayor of Minneapolis Jacob Frey, have openly declared that Good was murdered, and that Ross should be charged.

So divisive has the turn of events proven that even Good’s family are split on whether or not her killing can be justified within the bounds of the law.

The 37-year-old’s former father-in-law recently revealed in an interview that he doesn’t blame ICE for Good’s death. Speaking to CNN, Timmy Macklin, father of Renee’s second husband Tim Macklin Jr, said he believed the situation was ‘hard for everybody involved’.

“I’m not blaming anybody,” he said of Ross’ decision to shoot Good in the head.

“I mean, the ICE agent, you know, at first I didn’t see the footage where he was actually being rammed.

“I’ve seen the bumper of the car hitting his legs. And so in a flash like that, it’s hard to say how you would react.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Macklin confirmed he was a supporter of Donald Trump, adding that he did not agree with the actions of his former daughter-in-law (Good) on the day she was killed.

“I think there’s some bad choices… if we’re walking in the spirit of God, I don’t think she would have been there. That’s the way I look at it,” he said.

Reflecting on Ross’ decision to call Good a “f*****g b***c” after firing the fatal shots, Macklin said: “His statement that he made after the incident, the things he called her, I mean, that’s definitely showing evidence that he that he don’t know the Lord like he should.”

In an interview with Donald Trump yesterday, CBS anchor Tony Dokoupil revealed that he’d spoken with Renee’s father, relaying that he was also a supporter of the 47th POTUS.

When asked by Dokoupil for his thoughts on his administration branding Renee a ‘domestic terrorist’, Trump said: “I wanna say to the father that I love all of our people. They can be on the other side.

“And I would bet you that she, under normal circumstances, was a very solid, wonderful person. But, you know, her actions were pretty tough.”
