From the New York Times (gift link):
The lawsuits, filed in Minnesota federal court, accused the ICE agent, Jonathan Ross, of having placed himself at risk by standing in front of Ms. Good’s car during a tense confrontation on Jan. 7 and unjustifiably using deadly force.
In addition to Mr. Ross, one lawsuit also names as defendants Kristi Noem, the former secretary of homeland security; Stephen Miller, the top White House official overseeing immigration policy; Thomas D. Homan, the White House border czar; Todd Lyons, the former director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement; and Gregory Bovino, a former senior Border Patrol official.
The second lawsuit, which lists the U.S. government as a defendant, is filed under a 1964 law that allows plaintiffs to seek redress for deaths caused by negligence.
Ms. Good, a U.S. citizen, was fatally shot inside her vehicle a few blocks from her home in south Minneapolis.
Ms. Noem and other top administration officials quickly said the shooting was justified and accused Ms. Good of trying to run over the ICE agent with her vehicle.
The two lawsuits were filed by Good’s partner, Becca Good, and Renee’s brother Brent Ganger. Read the full report here.
