GoFundMe for Wife and Son of Woman Who Was Fatally Shot While Trying to Mow Down ICE Agent Raises Nearly $600K in Less Than a Day

A GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the wife and son of Renee Nicole Good, the woman who was fatally shot while trying to mow down an ICE agent, has raised nearly $600,000 in less than a day.

Good was shot on Wednesday during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, in which she was using her vehicle to impede the operation throughout the day.

The situation turned deadly when she began to accelerate her vehicle into an officer, who fired in what appears to be a clear-cut case of self-defense.

The fundraiser, organized by Mattie Weiss, is titled “Support for Renee Good’s Wife and Son” and aims to assist Good’s wife and six-year-old son as they cope with the “devastating loss.” The description describes Good as “pure sunshine, pure love,” adding, “She will be desperately missed.”

Nearly 15,000 people contributed in the 15 hours after it launched.

According to DHS, Good attempted to “weaponize” her vehicle by trying to ram into agents, prompting one officer to fire three “defensive shots” in fear for his life and the safety of others.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem went even further and labeled Good’s actions as an act of “domestic terrorism” and defended the agent’s response as justified.

The shooting sparked massive protests in Minneapolis and beyond.

The woman who stated she was Good’s wife at the scene of the incident claimed in a witness video that she had forced her to attend the protest.

“I made her come down here; it’s my fault. They just shot my wife,” the woman says.

The Star Tribune reports, “Good had previously been married to Timmy Ray Macklin Jr., who died in 2023 at the age of 36. Macklin’s father, Timmy Ray Macklin Sr., was shocked to hear the news that Good had been shot and killed.”

“He said Good and his son had a child who is now 6 years old.”

“There’s nobody else in his life,” Macklin said. “I’ll drive. I’ll fly. To come and get my grandchild.”

Won't the family have to split some with the Senior Lesbian Activist (aka The SLA woman) ? And wouldn't she be one of the beneficiaries of any life insurance ? Who gets the house and Bank account ? The husband(the SLA woman) ?

Pretty convenient. The SLA woman is gonna make out great.

She became famous. She had a home, a car,and someone else's money to use in her hobby(job) as an ACTIVIST (Protester for Hire).

She got this woman who was an emotional wreck and fulfilled the role of the previous husband, taking on things that the younger woman didn't want to deal with. Things a man used to do. So these two went on a THELMA & LOUISE fantasy tour, attending protests and trying to turn them into riots. The dead woman was trying to prove her 'love' for the SLA woman so she 'took charge' this time while the SLA woman video recorded the incident. When the woman was shot in the head, the SLA woman didn't have much of a reaction. She was saying she was sorry, that she got the dead woman involved in this female version of older men who buy a Corvette to relive their youth.

I bet she hated to see the Honda Pilot totalled.

I thought GoFundMe would not allow fundraising for Insurrectionists.

Claw it for the expense of running a two front ICE operation.
Jail the less stupid and fine them heavily too.
Or they could be J6ed, truly insurrectionist.

A goodly number of people are trying to fund a revolution. Be careful for what you wish...

His obituary doesn’t so much as mention her.

That was the loudest dog not barking I’ve ever heard. My guess: she was lesbo cheating on him for a long time.

Didn’t the surviving lesbian get arrested some time back for abusing the kids by putting out cigarettes on them? Apparently, the dead lesbian “forgave” her and kept the relationship going.

Talk about a sick web of mental illness and criminal behavior.

Yet they are heroes for the mentally disturbed lefties...which is ALL lefties.

You put your finger on something interesting. I looked, too. No one seems to know how the young father died. 14 year Air Force veterans who had turned to… stand up comedy. No offense, but pretty goofy looking. There’s a story there but no one is talking about it

Ka-Ching!

Lesbian sets up crazy mom, videos her death and becomes instant millionaire.

The officer(s) involved need to sue post haste and DOJfile criminal charges against “wife” for felony murder and several conspiracy to charges ASAP.

Otherwise this behavior will multiply nationwide.

No surprise. This is what they do. We should be more generous when they injure and kill people on our side.

Amazing how the left honors criminal “moms” in lofty reverence. BUT don’t consider them “moms” when they abort their unborn children, they are just vessels for unwanted membrane and blood.

Devoutly to be hoped that it will be held against her, but when has a thing like that ever stopped a lefist judge? As a peer witness for several friends of mine going through divorces, I literally gasped at some of the decisions by woke judges in Maryland, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Here in Maryland, there have been several cases of judges insisting on unsupervised visits with partners who were certifiably mentally ill, resulting in the entirely preventable deaths of the children. One child was thrown off the Bay Bridge by his non-primary custodial parent. It's 350 feet:

I live in Northern Virginia and know the Bay Bridge well.

I was a witness down here for a retired Army friend and his wife had a mental breakdown in the courtroom. She went nuts.

The POS judge gave her primary custody and he only got supervised visits. He was an excellent father and the judge should have been removed from the Bench.
