ICE Agent Jonathan Ross and the Killing of Rene Good: A Legal Breakdown of Potential Crimes [View all]

https://mitchthelawyer.substack.com/p/ice-agent-jonathan-ross-and-the-killing

I spent years as a lawyer. I’ve filed claims and tried cases against police officers and won. I also declined cases when the law did not support them. I wish none of this was happening, but it is.

Under the Dual Sovereignty Doctrine, and from what I’ve seen to date, this case clears the charging threshold and ICE agent Ross should be prosecuted at the state and federal levels.

This is not about politics. It is about evidence, statutory elements, and accountability.

Ross fired three rounds into a moving vehicle and killed Renée Nicole Good, a United States citizen and mother of three. The government immediately labeled her a domestic terrorist. Video evidence does not support that claim. Independent experts have disputed intent. Local officials were sidelined while federal authorities seized evidence and controlled the narrative. See my earlier post.

The question is not whether Ross feared something. The question is whether the law permits what he did. . . .
