Justice Department will investigate Renee Good's wife but not the man who killed her

"The U.S. Department of Justice is indeed investigating Becca Good, the wife of Renee Nicole Good, the woman who was killed by a federal agent January 7 in Minneapolis. One person it isn't investigating: Jonathan Ross, the agent who shot her. The DOJ is investigating Becca Good under a law against "assaulting, resisting, or impeding federal officers," sources told NBC News. Several important DOJ employees have already quit because they knew the department intended to investigate her."

"Video shows Renee Good saying, "That's fine, dude, I'm not mad at you," while another officer tells her to get out of the vehicle. Becca Good then appears to say "Drive," while Renee Good turns away from Ross and starts to drive off. Shots then ring out. Footage Ross took with his own cell phone shows that he was not in the path of the vehicle."

"Yet Noem has claimed that Renee Good hit Ross with her SUV. "It was used as a weapon, and the officer feels as though his life was in jeopardy," she said the day after the shooting. "It was used to perpetuate a violent act, and this officer took action to protect himself and to protect his fellow law enforcement officers.""

The DOJ is investigating Becca Good under a law prohibiting assaulting, resisting or impeding federal officers. Several DOJ employees resigned after learning of the planned probe. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the couple threatened an ICE agent and that the SUV was used as a weapon. Video shows Renee Good saying "That's fine, dude, I'm not mad at you," another officer ordering her out, Becca Good saying "Drive," and Renee attempting to leave before shots were fired. The agent's cellphone footage indicates he was not in the vehicle's path and that he called Good a "fucking bitch" after firing. Donald Trump labeled the couple "professional agitators."
