The killing of unarmed Renee Nicole Good, 37, has sparked international outrage. She was blasted three times in her car by federal agent Jonathan Ross during an immigration protest in a residential part of Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

Good’s killing has heightened tensions nationwide—but particularly in Minnesota. An ICE agent told the Daily Beast drivers were increasingly making a “gun sign” with their hands as they pass by ICE patrols in the street.

    Agents fear the public revulsion toward the heavy-handed approach of ICE under President Donald Trump, and the administration’s efforts to cover its own tracks as it did in the wake of Good’s shooting, is already causing problems securing criminal convictions. One former agent told the Daily Beast that he and his colleagues fear it has become more common for juries not to believe evidence they are presenting to the court.

    I call BS. ICE never goes to court. Everything they do is totally unconstitutional and extra-judicial. When was the last time you heard of DHS trying to secure a conviction the legit, legal way?
