ICE shooting latest: Donations pour in for agent who killed Renee Good after weekend of protests nationwide

Donations have poured into a GoFundMe account for the ICE officer accused of killing activist Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week as protests continued in cities across the U.S. over the weekend.

Good, a 37-year-old mother-of-three, was shot dead by immigration agent Jonathan Ross behind the wheel of her SUV on a suburban street Wednesday morning, provoking a huge public outcry as footage of the incident was closely scrutinized on social media.

After a GoFundMe page was set up to raise money for the victim’s family, a competing account was established to enable Ross to bankroll his legal defense, which had reached $350,000 at the time of writing.

“I am big believer in our legal principal [sic] that one is innocent until proven guilty,” wrote hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman on X after donating a reported $10,000 to Ross’s cause.

Ackman also said he had intended to donate to Good’s account but that it had been closed before he could do so, nevertheless sharing links to both pages.

The page for Good’s family has already raised more than $1.5 million.
