US Department of Justice Announces Lack of Investigation into Renee Good’s Death

The US Department of Justice has stated that it will not be investigating the death of Renee Good, who was killed by an ICE agent in 2020. This decision comes after a 2020 inquiry into the death of George Floyd, another individual who was killed by law enforcement.

According to reports from various news sources, including NBC News and Al Jazeera, federal officials have been investigating the circumstances surrounding Good’s death, but the Department of Justice has announced that it will not be pursuing an investigation.

In contrast, the FBI did open a probe into the Minneapolis shooting where Renee Good was killed, but this investigation is now closed. The Department of Justice has stated that there is no evidence to support the opening of an investigation into Good’s death.

Additionally, six prosecutors have quit their jobs in response to pressure from lawmakers and advocacy groups to investigate the circumstances surrounding Good’s death.

The Department of Justice has released a statement confirming that it will not be investigating Renee Good’s death.
