ICE agent Jonathan Ross suffered INTERNAL BLEEDING after encounter with Renee Nicole Good, Trump admin says
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent who killed Renee Nicole Good suffered internal bleeding following the encounter, the Department of Homeland Security said.
Jonathan Ross, the agent who shot Good three times in the face on January 7 during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, endured internal bleeding to his torso, the Trump administration confirmed to the Daily Mail.
The extent of his condition remains unclear, as internal bleeding can also be classified as a bruise or contusion that causes mild or serious injury.
The mother-of-three was seen in a now-viral video ignoring demands by federal agents to get out of her maroon Honda Pilot, reversing the vehicle, and then trying to drive off during the protest.
She was then shot in the face before crashing her car. Ross, 43, was seen walking away after the incident.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said he was taken to the hospital afterward and released the same day.
The moment quickly became highly publicized, with one side saying Good, 37, was intentionally trying to hit Ross, and the other saying she was just trying to drive away.
Following Good’s death, Noem, President Trump, and Vice President JD Vance said she was allegedly after Ross that day, and that she committed ‘domestic terrorism‘ and was a ‘professional agitator.’

But on Monday, the poet’s grieving family said that was not at all who Good was, and she does not have a criminal past, as many online users have alleged.
‘I’ve been pretty quiet about this, because I wanted to wait until our family could piece together a statement… and it is finally published. You never think the passing of a loved one will be high profile… or a massively divisive, political topic,’ Morgan Fletcher, Good’s sister-in-law, posted on Facebook.
‘And we’ve seen the false claims and the wrong Renee Good’s info being posted (criminal history? She didn’t have one),’ Fletcher, who is related to Good’s late ex-husband, Timmy Macklin Jr, said.
In the wake of the deadly incident, two online fundraisers were launched – one for Good and one for Ross.
Each GoFundMe page caused quite a stir, with just over $706,000 being raised to help Ross, and the one for Good’s family raising more than $1.5 million in donations.
Ross was previously dragged by a suspect fleeing in a car six months prior to the Good’s death, the Daily Mail revealed.
He said he still has physical scars from that incident that he thought he could have died from.
Ross said how he ‘feared for my life’ during the previous incident and was left in ‘very excruciating pain.’

He publicly showed his scars from the encounter to a court last month as he described being dragged for 12 seconds by a car he estimated was traveling at speeds of up to 40mph for 100 yards.
His arm got trapped in the moving vehicle’s window, and his injuries required 33 stitches, he said.
Good’s friends have claimed she became involved in activism through her six-year-old son’s charter school and its local ‘ICE Watch group,’ which is a coalition of activists who seek to disrupt immigration raids.
Following her death, Good’s family said they want society to understand that she was a human being.
‘No matter where you stand on the issue of ICE or whether or not you think she did or didn’t deserve what happened, please remember she was a human being and she had loved ones… including children who can and will likely see all of these things about their mother… and her wife, whom she loved dearly.
‘Please remember to BE KIND. And if you claim to be a Christian, especially, please check your heart, attitude, and response to the tragic death. For they will know you by your fruits,’ Fletcher said.
Nearly a week after her death, federal investigators are reportedly investigating her possible connection with activist groups protesting Trump’s immigration crackdown.
FBI investigators, who have kicked local police off the probe and are now leading it, have said they are conducting a thorough inquiry into the fatal shooting, including an analysis of the actions Ross took as well as physical evidence like the handgun used to kill Good.

Those familiar with the investigation reportedly told The New York Times that the civil rights division of the Department of Justice, which typically investigates police-involved shootings, has not opened a probe into whether Ross violated Good’s rights under federal law.
Ross is ‘increasingly unlikely’ to face criminal charges, the Times reported.
In other recent news related to the case, at least six federal prosecutors resigned after the Justice Department allegedly ordered them to investigate Good’s wife, Rebecca.
Witnesses have said she and Rebecca were acting as legal observers and filming the protest that day.
In harrowing footage from the scene, Rebecca admitted she encouraged Good to confront agents. ‘I made her come down here, it’s my fault,’ she cried.
The Justice Department allegedly ordered prosecutors from the US Attorney’s Office in Minnesota to investigate Rebecca in the wake of the shooting, the Minnesota Star Tribune reported.
No further details of the crimes she is suspected of committing have been shared.
This order, along with the FBI’s decision to kick state officials out of the investigation into the shooting, caused at least six federal prosecutors to resign, including the lead on the massive Somali fraud scheme case.

Joe Thompson, the former acting US Attorney of Minnesota who spearheaded the prosecutions in the Feeding Our Future food fraud case, submitted his resignation on Tuesday.
‘It has been an honor and a privilege to represent the United States and this office,’ Thompson wrote in an email obtained by the local newspaper.
His resignation was followed by at least five other senior members of the office, including Assistant US Attorneys Harry Jacobs, Thomas Calhoun-Lopez, and Melinda Williams.
Jacobs was the lead prosecuting attorney on the case against Vance Boelter for the assassination of Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark.
The Daily Mail contacted the Department of Homeland Security for comment.
