Woman Had Recently Left School Drop-Off Before ICE Shooting

Renee Good was a U.S. citizen born in Colorado and appears to have never been charged with anything involving law enforcement beyond a traffic ticket. In social media accounts, Good described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom.” She said she was currently “experiencing Minneapolis.”

She also has a pride flag emoji on her Instagram account, and new online posts have highlighted a woman believed to be Renee Good’s wife. In one video taken after the shooting, a distraught woman is seen sitting near the vehicle, wailing, “That’s my wife, I don’t know what to do!” AP reports that Calls and messages to Good’s current partner received no response.

A profile picture posted to Pinterest shows Renee Good smiling and holding a young child against her cheek, along with posts about tattoos, hairstyles and home decorating.

Good had a daughter and her son from her first marriage, who are now ages 15 and 12. Her 6-year-old son was from her second marriage.

Ex-Husband Says Renee Good Was Not An Activist

Video taken by bystanders posted to social media shows an ICE agent approaching Renee Good’s car, demanding she open the door and grabbing the handle. When she begins to pull forward, a different ICE agent standing in front of the vehicle pulls his weapon and immediately fires at least two shots into the vehicle at close range. Trump administration officials painted Good as a domestic terrorist who had attempted to ram federal agents with her car. However, Renee Good’s ex-husband said she was no activist and that he had never known her to participate in a protest of any kind.

The ex-husband asked not to be named out of concern for the safety of their children. He said Good had just dropped off her 6-year-old son at school Wednesday. She was driving home with her current partner when they encountered a group of ICE agents on a snowy street in Minneapolis. Good had moved last year from Kansas City, Missouri.

Her ex-husband said she had primarily been a stay-at-home mom in recent years. She previously worked as a dental assistant and at a credit union. Additionally, he described her as a devoted Christian who participated in youth mission trips to Northern Ireland during her youth. She loved to sing, participating in a high school chorus and studying vocal performance in college. She studied creative writing at Old Dominion University in Virginia. Good won a prize in 2020 for one of her works, according to a post on the school’s English department Facebook page. Good also hosted a podcast with her second husband, who died in 2023.
