A woman shot dead by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minnesota has been named as 37-year-old poet Renee Nicole Good.

The mother-of-three was named by her mother Donna Ganger, who spoke to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune on Wednesday afternoon.

'She was probably terrified,' Ganger said.

The grieving mom denied reports Good would have been 'part of anything like' the protests against ICE that were taking place at the location where she was killed.

'That's so stupid,' she said. 'Renee was one of the kindest people I've ever known.

'She was extremely compassionate. She's taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.'

Good was a poet and mother of three children who grew up in Colorado Springs. She was married to a comedian named Timothy Macklin who died in 2023 and now lives in Minneapolis with her partner, whose named has not been shared.

Good was shot three times in the face at a protest in Minneapolis on Wednesday after she ignored ICE agents' demands to get out of her car, reversed it and tried to drive off.

She wasn’t terrified enough not to try to run over the ICE agents.

'That's so stupid,' she said. 'Renee was one of the kindest people I've ever known. 'She was extremely compassionate.

She's also extremely dead.

A terminal case of Minniesomalia Retard, egged on by Timpon and Jake the Snake.

(pssssttt...just whisper it in our ear...we won't tell)

She had a WEAPON of THOUSANDS of POUNDS AIMED at the ICE AGENT!!!.....and it was @ SHOTS, I THINK!

[Savage Beast]

Running over an agent who was trying to enforce US immigration laws was not very kind.

Well she had NO business being there trying to murder ICE officers so perhaps her “wife” should have told her that when an officer tells you to get out of the damn car you get OUT OF THE CAR you dont try to get away and hit other officers

"Good was shot three times in the face at a protest"

And those .45s really leave a mess. No goodbye kisses for mama.

[Morgana]

Oh yea did you not catch my post form earlier today? Her “wife” was there at the scene screaming.

[bigbob]

She was shot in the face because an ICE officer was 3 feet in front of her vehicle with a gun pointed at it. When any LEO tells you to stop and you decide to put the pedal to the metal, exactly what do you expect the outcome to be?

[No name given]

And a white female dindunuffin in this case.

[No name given]

That’s right.

You know what I do when there are protests here in Charleston ? I stay the F**K home.

That’s what I do.

I was thinking Laz would hit that if he could but it’s too late.

A cult member who (either pre-planned or spur of the moment) decided to commit suicide by cop. Hopefully the other cult members will reconsider their devotion to the cause before the numbers start piling up.
