Stephen A. Smith Insists ICE Agent Was Completely Justified' in Fatal Shooting in Minneapolis But Still Thinks He Could Have Avoided It

"I saw the video on numerous occasions and, seeing what transpired, from a lawful perspective as it pertains to a law enforcement official, don't expect him to be prosecuted. He was completely justified. From a humanitarian perspective, however, why did you have to do that? If you could move out the way, that means you could have shot the tires. That means you could have got her a few feet away after you shot the tires;"

"and if you were unsuccessful in doing that, you could have got her down the road. You didn't have to do that. She wasn't driving down the road, coming at you 90 miles an hour. She was parked in the middle of the street, and rather than get out the car, she wrongfully tried to drive off and wrongfully disregarded law enforcement official which is exactly what ICE is and as a result, lost her life because of it."

Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis during an immigration enforcement encounter. Video shows Good blocking the road as agents approached her vehicle and attempting to flee, nearly striking an agent, after agents tried to open her car door. Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security accused Good of weaponizing her vehicle and called the incident an act of domestic terrorism. Critics say Good was trying to leave after agents tried to open the car door. Stephen A. Smith said the agent was legally justified but questioned why lethal force was necessary instead of nonlethal alternatives.
