The family of Renee Good filed two civil lawsuits against the federal government and several immigration officials Thursday, seeking accountability for the 37-year-old’s fatal shooting by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis in January. One suit argues that officer Jonathan Ross used excessive force, violating Good’s constitutional rights and ICE policies. It seeks damages for Good’s suffering before her death and for the emotional harm her partner, Becca Good, says she experienced while witnessing the shooting. Ross fired several shots at Good while she was in her car. Federal officials said at the time that Good had used her vehicle as a weapon; video evidence contradicted that account, according to the lawsuit. The second case makes a broader allegation: that Good’s death resulted from a conspiracy to interfere with Minnesotans’ civil rights. The complaint invokes the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, a federal law enacted during Reconstruction to address violence and intimidation by the KKK. It alleges the immigration operation targeted Somali and Hispanic people and sought to silence those who observed or documented it. Those claims have not been proven in court. The defendants named include Ross, White House adviser Stephen Miller, former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, White House border czar Tom Homan and former Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino. The complaint also names 10 unidentified federal agents who were at the scene. The Department of Homeland Security did not respond to a request for comment. White House spokesperson Lauren Bis said the administration would “vigorously defend these baseless civil lawsuits.” At a news conference in Minneapolis, Good’s brother Brent Ganger said the family was seeking accountability after what he described as a lack of investigation or policy changes. “We will not wait any longer,” he said. Becca Good spoke publicly for the first time since the shooting, describing the loss of a partner who had been present for their family’s milestones. Their youngest child, now 6, started first grade this fall. “I went to Back To School Night on my own,” she said. “She never missed a single moment.” The civil cases come amid a lack of publicly announced criminal charges over Good’s death. Minnesota state and local officials have not filed charges or released findings; a Hennepin County spokesperson said evidence is under review and officials would share information when a decision is reached. The family’s claims now put both the shooting and the policies behind the federal enforcement operation before the courts.
