From a legal use-of-force perspective, the video makes this hard to justify.
Deadly force turns on imminence. Under Graham v. Connor and Tennessee v. Garner, officers CAN'T use lethal force just because someone is fleeing or being defiant.
There MUST be a specific, immediate threat of death or serious bodily harm.
Vehicles can be deadly force... but ONLY when they’re actually being used that way.
In the video, the SUV appears to move slowly. No pedestrians are visible in the vehicle’s path. If an officer was not about to be struck (or reasonably avoid being struck) at the instant shots were fired the claim of imminent lethal danger weakens quickly.
“Fleeing” isn’t enough.
“Felony” isn’t enough.
Even “reckless” isn’t enough without imminence.
Shooting to stop movement, rather than to stop an unavoidable lethal threat, is exactly what Garner forbids.
The government labeling the car “weaponized” is a conclusion, not a fact.
The Fourth Amendment question is simple: was deadly force necessary at that moment?
The best video evidence right now shows ICE shot a woman while she was attempting to drive away from rather than run over a federal agent. Unless something else comes out, a trigger happy fed just executed an American citizen and the Trump admin wants to cover it up. This isn’t partisan. If you think it’s partisan to demand transparency and accountability from the government in cases like these, you have terminal brain worms.
NEW: Woman shot dead by ICE agent in Minneapolis identified as Renee Good, 37.

This bih really just said there is a NETWORK OF UNDERGROUND TRAINING FOR LEFT WING AGITATORS TO USE THEIR CARS AS WEAPONS AGAINST LAW ENFORCEMENT IN A COORDINATED EFFORT. Please please use your fucking brains & understand the level of gaslighting we are seeing is unprecedented
They are really just going to lie and gaslight us all when we have seen the video from 3+ angles? Cold blooded murder, complete denial and deflection. This is some true #1984 shit. Strap in yall. 💔
Just one lifetime ago in the United States, our grandfathers could buy a home, buy a car, have 3 to 4 children, keep their wives at home, take annual vacations, and then retire… all on one middle-class salary. What happened?
@KenneyBaden @TGlarer Google Cloud services and servers are down. They’ve taken a lot down with them. I strongly suspect coordinated cyber attacks and/or DDNS on a very large scale. This is the most I’ve seen taken down simultaneously like this in a long time
This WH press secretary has to be one of the most rude, condescending, out the side of her neck talking, gaslighting POS to ever hold such a position. It’s honestly appalling and quite astonishing the level to which she has taken it….Even for this 🎪 of 🤡 🤡 🤡
It’s almost unfathomable that this cocksucker is actually the Commander in Chief. We have surpassed Idiocracy levels of fuck-titude. I honestly cannot imagine what could possibly come next, but I am Thriller-era MJ with popcorn ready for whatever is next. Come see bout it 🔫
I am fucking SHOOK. These kids really out here referring to the 80’s and 90’s as the “1900’s” ‼️‼️like we were some MF Victorian ghosts listening to parlor music on a MF wax cylinder and shit. IM DONE w these crew sock wearing psychos, leave me alone to age in peace & solace 😭💀
