Hennepin County Attorney's Office Demands Evidence in Renee Good Investigation
The Hennepin County Attorney's Office has issued a formal request for evidence from the federal government as part of its ongoing investigation into the killing of Renee Good, 37. The office, along with state authorities and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, is seeking to uncover the truth behind Good's death by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on January 7.
According to a letter issued by County Attorney Mary Moriarty, the federal government has been given a February 17 deadline to provide requested evidence. The office is demanding physical items such as firearms, videos, photographs, statements from involved officers, medical records of injured agents, and policies in effect at the time of the incident.
Moriarty stated that she expects the federal government to cooperate fully with her office's investigation, despite initial claims by the Trump administration that they were not conducting an investigation. The county attorney emphasized that state authorities are committed to supporting their efforts to conduct a thorough, transparent, and impartial inquiry into Good's death.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison echoed these sentiments, stating that it was unprecedented for the county attorney's office to issue such letters. He highlighted the need for federal investigators to cooperate with state authorities in a joint investigation, citing Governor Tim Walz's concerns about public confidence in the findings.
The investigation into Good's death has been marked by controversy, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and others questioning the official narrative that the ICE officer who fired at close range acted in self-defense. The case has sparked widespread outrage and calls for greater accountability from law enforcement officials.
As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen how the Hennepin County Attorney's Office will proceed with its demands for evidence, potentially shedding light on a pivotal moment that has left many questioning the actions of federal agents involved.

theyre also gettin pressure from mayor frey and others to reopen the case lol like who do u think is behind this?! state authorities are tryin to support the county attorney but i feel like they should be investigatin themselves not just waitin for the feds 2 cough up evidence 
this is getting really crazy...ICE agents involved in Renee Good's death, and now they're demanding evidence from the feds? It feels like we're still stuck in some kind of alternate reality where police are above accountability 
...I don't get why they're taking so long to cooperate, considering all the outrage and pressure from the public. It's like they think they can just sweep this under the rug 
or worse, cover it up completely 
. We need answers now, not some watered-down version of the truth 
.
. I feel like we're supposed to trust them with our lives and they end up taking one from us. I don't think it's too much to ask for some evidence, you know? Like, what were their intentions that day? Were they even following protocol? 
meanwhile, Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey is like "yeah right" and we all know why... the fact that no one's talking about Renee Good's life beforehand kinda sucks 
anyway, hopefully they get what they need so we can finally get some answers 
Does anyone know how this whole process works? I feel like it's so confusing 
. And what's up with the county attorney asking for medical records of injured agents? That's just creepy 
.
.
. I'm all for answers, but at what cost? The more I hear about this, the more I want answers ASAP 
. Can't we just get some straight-up truth here?!
