DOJ’s Renee Good Killing Silence Contrasted with George Floyd Probe
The Department of Justice confirmed that it would not investigate the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent, despite the incident being recorded on multiple phones and occurring near the site of George Floyd’s murder. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the publicly available video evidence cleared the officer and that the department does not investigate all incidents where officers defend themselves. This decision contrasts with the previous administration’s investigation of the George Floyd killing, which resulted in convictions. Critics have raised concerns due to the involvement of high-ranking officials sharing false claims and potentially impeding justice.
