A gunshot wound to the left temple likely killed Renee Good, according to an independent autopsy released Wednesday by Good’s family’s attorneys.
ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Good in her car on Jan. 7 in south Minneapolis as Good and her wife protested ICE agents.
The preliminary findings of the autopsy, conducted by a “highly respected and credentialed medical pathologist,” per the press release, attests that Good suffered three clear gunshot wounds: one to the left forearm; one to the right breast; and one to the left temple, which exited the right side of her head.
The autopsy also found a graze wound from a bullet, but did not specify the location.
The shots to the arm and breast were “were not immediately life-threatening,” according to the autopsy results.
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office has not yet released its autopsy results.
Federal prosecutors are not expected to press charges against Ross. President Donald Trump and other top officials have said Ross was acting in self-defense.
Federal agencies are blocking state and local law enforcement from accessing evidence, creating obstacles for any potential state charges against Ross.
Good’s family is represented by Antonio Romanucci, who represented the family of George Floyd with Ben Crump and won a $27 million civil settlement with the city of Minneapolis.
Video of the shooting shows Ross fired the shots as Good was trying to drive away. (Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has called Good a “terrorist” who was trying to hit Ross with her car.)
After Ross shot Good, ICE agents did not allow a man who said he was a physician to help Good. No one attempted to provide CPR until more than 10 minutes after Ross shot her, according to MPR News.
ICE agents shot a second person, Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis, exactly one week after Good.
