JUST IN: Bombshell Development In Renee Good Controversy Vindicates Agent: ‘Internal Bleeding To The Torso’

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good last week in Minneapolis suffered internal bleeding to the torso after the encounter, according to U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition.

How serious the bleeding was remains unclear. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed the injury but declined to provide further details.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem previously said the agent, Jonathan Ross, was taken to a hospital after the Jan. 7 shooting and released the same day. She said he was recovering and defended his actions, describing him as an experienced law enforcement officer who believed he was protecting himself and fellow agents.

“The officer was hit by the vehicle. She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released,” Noem told reporters on Jan. 7.

Ross, a 10-year law enforcement veteran with ICE, was seriously injured in a separate incident in June in the Minneapolis area when he was dragged by a car during an attempted arrest. Court records show he required 33 stitches and hospital treatment.

U.S. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino said Ross has received multiple threats since the shooting and remains in a secure location.

“He’s in a safe location. He’s recovering from those injuries, and we’re thankful that he’s recovering,” Bovino said.

Good’s former father-in-law said Tuesday night that he does not blame the ICE officer who shot her during a chaotic confrontation in Minneapolis, telling CNN that the tragedy came down to bad decisions and a split-second moment no one wanted.

Timmy Macklin, the father of Good’s late ex-husband and grandfather to her young son, spoke Tuesday on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront, saying he supports President Trump and believes the agent was put in an impossible position.

Good, 37, was killed Jan. 7 after an encounter with federal immigration officers while driving in Minneapolis with her wife, Becca. The Trump administration later labeled her a domestic terrorist, saying she used her vehicle as a weapon.

Macklin said the incident was “hard for everybody involved” and said he only fully understood what happened after watching the video.

“I’m not blaming anybody,” Macklin said. “I mean, the ICE agent, you know, at first I didn‘t see the footage where… he was actually being rammed. I mean, I‘ve seen the bumper of the car hitting his legs. And so in a flash like that, it‘s hard to say how you would react.”

He added of Good, “Do I agree with everything that she did? Absolutely not.”

On CBS Evening News, anchor Tony Dokoupil said he spoke with Good’s biological father, a Trump supporter who was heartbroken over both his daughter’s death and how quickly the administration labeled her a domestic terrorist.

I don’t think Renee Good’s former father-in-law gave the media the interview they were hoping for: “If we walk in the spirit of God I don’t think she would have been there.” pic.twitter.com/3h42Bm8vng
