FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (FOX26) — The Fresno County Democratic Central Committee is demanding swift action and accountability after the fatal shooting of Renée Nicole Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in Minneapolis on Wednesday.
In a statement, the group condemned the killing and called for criminal charges against the ICE agent involved, a full and independent investigation, and the immediate withdrawal of ICE from Minnesota.
“This was a preventable death. No federal agent is above the law,” the committee says. “Renée Nicole Good should be alive today. When an ICE agent kills a civilian, justice cannot wait. Accountability must be swift, transparent, and real. ICE’s continued presence in Minnesota is a threat to public safety.”
Good, a 37yearold Minneapolis resident, was shot and killed by an ICE officer during a federal enforcement operation on Jan. 7, 2026.
Federal authorities say the agent fired in selfdefense as Good’s vehicle moved toward officers, but local leaders and eyewitness accounts have raised questions about that narrative.
Good’s death has since sparked protests and widespread criticism.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz have openly disputed the federal government’s version of events, and many activists and officials are demanding greater transparency and accountability.
The Fresno County Democratic Central Committee also highlighted what it called ICE’s “pattern of violence, lack of oversight, and disregard for human life, especially toward Black, Indigenous, immigrant, and marginalized communities.”
The group says such actions “undermine trust and put lives at risk.”
“We stand with the family of Renée Nicole Good and with communities demanding justice,” the committee says. “We will not accept silence, delay, or impunity. Justice for Renée Nicole Good means consequences and change now.”
