ICE Agent Filmed Himself Killing Her -- Video Destroys Self-Defense Claim - Decoding The Rhetoric

[Rhiannon12866]

An ICE agent filmed himself on his personal cell phone as he shot and killed Renee Nicole Good. The 48-second video was just released — and it raises one unavoidable question: if he was really afraid for his life, why was he filming?

The agent, Jonathan Ross, is a 20-year Border Patrol and ICE veteran. In the video, he is holding his phone in one hand and his gun in the other. He films himself approaching Good’s vehicle, walking in front of it, and pulling the trigger — all while Renee calmly says, “That’s fine dude. I’m not mad at you.”

Federal officials claimed the shooting was self-defense. They said Good was blocking agents, tried to run him over, and posed an imminent threat. But Ross’s own video contradicts every one of those claims.

Use-of-force experts say no training permits one-handed shooting while filming. Legal scholars say his behavior is incompatible with genuine fear. And CNN’s 3D reconstruction, using all available footage, systematically dismantles the Department of Homeland Security’s narrative.

After the shooting, Ross continued filming and no medical aid was provided for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, the FBI has blocked Minnesota state investigators from accessing evidence, ensuring the federal government investigates itself — with no independent oversight.

This video breaks down what the footage shows, what experts say it proves, and why the official story is collapsing under scrutiny. - 01/10/2026.
