WASHINGTON — Federal officials are investigating the partner of Renee Nicole Good to determine whether she may have impeded a federal officer moments before he shot and killed Good in Minneapolis, according to two people familiar with the investigation who spoke to NBC News.
The federal investigation into the shooting by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross is focusing more on Becca Good, including what officials said were her possible ties to activist groups, and less on Ross’ actions when he fired into Renee Good’s vehicle during an immigration operation last week, the people said.
The fatal encounter has touched off protests in Minneapolis and calls for accountability for immigration officers, whose tactics have resulted in at least 10 other shootings since September.
Antonio Romanucci, Becca Good’s lawyer, said in a statement Saturday that “there has been no contact from the FBI or federal officials indicating Becca Good is the subject of an investigation.”
The Justice Department is also investigating Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey under the theory they conspired to impede federal immigration agents through their public statements, according to a senior law enforcement official and person familiar with the matter.
The Democratic officials have criticized ICE’s enforcement tactics and said in statements the investigation was obviously political. Frey said he would not be intimidated.
“The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her,” Walz said.

Becca Good should be charged with felony murder but that’s a state charge so it will never happen.
That smell has to nauseate anyone who stands close to heritthemtheyyall.
Still ZERO high level arrests. 5/8 years WASTED.
I’m a little confused here. Was “Becca Good” actually legally married to Renee Good, such that she took her last name on official documents, etc.?
I know Becca claimed Renee was her “wife”, but taking her last name is something beyond that.
Doesn’t Becca have a different last name officially?
The lawyer denies that his client is under federal investigation...Then what?
In America, if a cholo/homeboy/wannabe gangbanger and his buddy rob a liquor store and, in the process, one of the robbers shoots and kills the clerk, they are BOTH charged with murder. At worst, the shooter gets a murder 1 charge, his buddy/lookout gets a murder 2 charge from a grand jury and a competent district attorney DOING THE JOB they were hired to do.
Renee Good’s friend set her up to obstruct duly appointed government police agents and, in the course of her actions she was killed while putting an agent’s life in danger; her friend should be charged too.
But we already know Mogadishu north HAS no competent DA and the state’s AG is as corrupted as the Somali’s he’s protecting. But, this should be a federal, not a state case.
Paging @PamBondi to the DO YOUR DAMNED JOB phone.
She urged Renee Good to obstruct a law enforcement operation. Her reckless disregard for the consequences of such an action led to the death of Renee Good. Since it was a FEDERAL law enforcement operation, hopefully there’s some federal statute that applies.
I agree there’s ZERO chance of the corrupt county or Minnesota state attorneys filing manslaughter charges.
It could also be stated this way ...
"In America, if a cholo/homeboy/wannabe gangbanger and his buddy rob a liquor store and, in the process, the clerk kills the robber, the other gangbanger can be charged with felony murder."
'Felony murder' is a different charge than 1st degree, 2nd degree or other murder charges brought against someone who directly commits the killing. It applies to anyone involved in the crime being committed and applies no matter who dies as a result of the crime.
Thanks.
I dropped outta law school to go into the Army 50 years ago, spent my life in medicine.
Obviously I have more reviewing to do.
My father was a doctor so I understand your natural distancing from the legal profession.
I was just a carpenter. I learned about felony murder on Free Republic. :)
