ICE = MURDER
Write about ICE,
the murder of Renee Nicole Good, Alex Pretti
and others killed by ICE
On January 7th, ICE agents carrying out an operation in south Minneapolis were briefly obstructed by a car blocking traffic. ICE agents approached the female driver, 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, yelling, “Get out of the fucking car,” and one of them attempted to open the driver’s-side door. After the driver backed up to turn around and move, another agent drew his gun and unloaded three shots into the car. The car barreled into a light pole about 100 feet down the road, and the driver was quickly pronounced dead. This is confirmed by eyewitness accounts and videos from multiple angles.
