In reply to the discussion: ICE agent in Minneapolis killing identified as 10-year law enforcement veteran [View all]ancianita

There are plenty of things going on that are infuriating. Ever day this administration finds new ways to spit on the Constitution. Were still dealing with the illegal invasion of Venezuela, and apparent plans to attack multiple other nations around the Western Hemisphere.
But Renee Nicole Goods murder cuts through all of that noise. A masked federal agent murdered an American citizen in broad daylight for no reason at all. The administration lied about it with video evidence directly contradicting every word. The media called it disputed. And thousands of people said no.
The institutional guardrails have failed. The courts warned us this would happen and it happened anyway. The media wont hold power accountable. So the work falls to usto show up, to document, to refuse to accept the lies, to make the cost of this violence too high to sustain.
ICE must be abolished. This cannot stand. And anyone who makes excuses for what happened yesterday has chosen a side, and its not the side of America or freedom or anything resembling justice.
Renee Nicole Good was a poet, a mother, and a citizen murdered by her own government for the crime of existing near an ICE agent having a bad day. Remember her name. Remember what they did. And remember that they lied about it even with the cameras rolling.

OP
He needs to turn himself in to the Minneapolis police and be held for the charge of murder

What did she actually say? I don't want to sign up for X in order to hear the 9-second clip. Thanks.

It's already in current court records, a matter of public record. No doxxing necessary.

If a whole bunch of people take to the internet and broadcast his address and other contact info from those records

Sure. But then there's the well known fact that he's a resident of Minneapolis.

If I, for example, went into public records and found out where Ross lives and other contact information

His neighbors might be surprised to see him murdering a young woman

Well, I wouldn't take my opinion of a parent out on his kid. But I do understand what you mean.

It wasn't that family that caused him to make the decision to murder. It's moot, anyway, to answer to a hypothetical

Cops are trained to not purposefully place themselves in front of a running, manned vehicle

Yes. Here are previous court records with photos showing Ross doing just that with a "suspect" charged.

Certainly not defending Munoz in this circumstance, but this still seems like a bonehead move by Ross
AZJonnie

Not at all. Munoz should have gotten a lawyer before this encounter, because photos show that how this arrest proceeded

I hear you. I'm wondering just where MN's excellent AG, Keith Ellison is. Is he dealing with these events?

Did he realize he was being filmed and there were at least 10 witnesses seeing the entire incident?

This all has to go to a MN state court soon. Things are getting way worse because of this murder. More from The Guardian

At the state level. There will first be a jurisdictional fight in courts about this. And the state will win.
