“Fcking bitch,” Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good, says in the video.*

A newly released cellphone video, apparently filmed by the ICE officer who killed Renee Nicole Good, and obtained by Minneapolis-based Alpha News, a conservative-leaning nonprofit news site, appears to sharply contradict the U.S. government’s public account of the fatal Wednesday shooting, raising new questions about whether the agent who opened fire was ever in immediate danger.

The footage was recorded on a cellphone by ICE officer Jonathan Ross, not by a department body camera. It captures Ross’s own perspective as he approaches Good’s maroon Honda Pilot during what the Department of Homeland Security claims was a federal operation in south Minneapolis.

Say the words. He called her a "Fucking bitch". Stop fucking censoring language, especially over something like this. If the words offend you, GOOD. You should be fucking offended. (I know OP just reposted the articles censoring - this is directed at the article more than OP)

We don't need MORE proof. Insinuating we need any more proof gives a veneer of validity to the suggestion there is any doubt at all. This is typical right wing "inundate with bullshit" that leaves anyone with a shred of hope of having an honest discussion constantly scrambling to offer more and more proof while the fact is that the Right DO NOT CARE. They're here to "win"; honesty, morals, truth, reality be damned.

Yeah... All the responses to that Twitter post were in defense of ICE... Incredible.

[–] badgermurphy@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

Are there any unsympathetic voices left on Twitter, though? I'm sure the Packers forums have some interesting opinions on yesterday's football game, too.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The shitbag Ross reacted like a Gestapo or NKVD thug.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 10 points 1 day ago

It's a template. In the future, your list will include ICE Agent.

Yes, walking in front of, and behind a vehicle with it's engine on SHOULD have made him feel danger. No one told him to walk in front of and behind a vehicle with the engine on, but if I'm wrong, and someone actually did tell him to do that, they're the responsible party. If he made that decision on his own, it's called contributory negligence.

[–] favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 day ago

And the fact that he circled the vehicle multiple times makes it clear he was trying to create a problem.

[–] neuromorph@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That video is tainted. No custody of evidence. The shooter had 48 hours to edit the video.

Sync up the video /audio to thwle dozen others and see if things line up? How much time was removed from the phone?

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago (8 children)

If the video conveniently "proved" his claims of self defense, you'd have a point. But it clearly doesn't. It shows he murdered her and his claims of self defense are a blatant lie. You're literally arguing "well maybe it was self defense because the video could have been edited by the PERPETRATOR to not show it was self defense". Like wtf?! You're arguing that the dude purposely edited the video to make himself look worse.

[–] neuromorph@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Im not saying the video proves innocence. It can be manipulated and still not help the officer. The fact is ICe/magazine arent the smartest people and I would challenge that video on the basis of custody alone.

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

And again, arguing custody would be arguing AGAINST the shooter. AT BEST, it would get the video thrown out and then we'd just look at the 4 other videos that all show the exact same thing. It literally doesn't help, at all. It literally only would add a charge of tampering with evidence.

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Pro-ICE voices (not necessarily people) think that the video supports the white house claims. The leaked site is right wing, and Vance shared it saying people should watch it.

It's crazy that this video seems to be such a Rorschach test.

[–] phx@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Yeah I'm pretty sure their take on it is "her gay leftie lover made him feel threatened"

Aka setting the "don't worry, she wasn't 'one of us' " distinction for the MAGAtts

the US or perhaps the world needs a reboot button

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Fallout TV series is mostly about that. Reboot buttons just incentize wealthy gamblers.
