Bill Ackman has given a $10,000 donation to a GoFundMe supporting the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good.
Good died just a few blocks away from her home after being gunned down by ICE agent Jonathan Ross on Wednesday (January 7) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, sparking outrage across the US.
Footage obtained by news agencies appears to show Good’s last moments before her death. Multiple state leaders have said Good was at the scene of the ICE raid as a legal observer – a volunteer who monitors police and security forces during protests and operations. When the 37-year-old mom-of-three, who was unarmed, attempted to drive away, the officer fired multiple shots through the side window. Authorities alleged she ‘weaponized’ her car and tried to run over the officer as they carried out raids in her neighborhood.
Despite the widespread outrage about the agency’s tactics following Good’s death, with many calling it murder, President Trump spoke out in defence of the ICE agent, writing on Truth Social at the time: “The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE officer, who seems to have shot her in self-defense.”Vice President JD Vance said last Thursday that Good ‘violated the law’ and was justifiably shot dead.
A donation page was set up for Ross, and one of the top donations came from Ackman, a billionaire hedge fund manager and founder of the investment management company Pershing Square Capital Management.
