MORE DETAILS ABOUT JONATHAN ROSS (from the Guardian) [View all]

The ICE agent involved in the lethal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good during an immigration sweep in Minneapolis yesterday is Jonathan David Ross, according to court records that closely match the description of a June 2025 incident involving the agent in Bloomington, Minnesota, cited by the homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, and JD Vance. Ross is a Minneapolis resident and 10-year veteran of the enforcement and removal operation’s special response team.

The death of Good, a mother of three, sparked outrage in Minneapolis and strident rebukes from Minnesota officials and on Capitol Hill. Thousands of people gathered in protest near the site of the shooting Wednesday night, and some Democrats on Capitol Hill have threatened to withhold funding to the Department of Homeland Security. Minneapolis mayor, Jacob Frey, said on Wednesday “To ICE – get the fuck out of Minneapolis”.

Federal officials have so far refused to identify the officer, though the Minneapolis Star-Tribune first identified Ross on Thursday. The Federal Bureau of Investigation also refused on Thursday to involve Minnesota law enforcement in the investigation of Good’s killing, prompting the governor, Tim Walz, to say “it feels very, very difficult that we will get a fair outcome.”

The Department of Homeland Security did not respond to multiple requests for comment Thursday. Ross did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
