The Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who killed a mother of three in Minnesota is an Iraq veteran with a long history of working in anti-immigration operations, according to a report.
Federal agent Jonathan Ross fired three shots at Renee Good in Minneapolis on January 7 as she was sitting behind the wheel of her maroon Honda Pilot. Good and other neighbors had come out to protest the presence of immigration forces on their streets.
The Trump administration has rallied behind Ross, asserting he acted in self-defense and accused the wife and mom of running him over.
Ross has yet to speak or appear in public since the shooting, which has sparked protests and clashes with law enforcement in Minneapolis and beyond. It has also led to calls for ICE to slow its aggressive deportation push in Minnesota and other areas. An increase of deportation has been center of President Donald Trump’s agenda.
A picture of the twice-married agent’s history is now coming into focus, with one law enforcement officer who has worked with Ross describing him as “a thorough agent who would go down rabbit holes in search of undocumented migrants” in a New York Times profile.

Ross is “a longtime ICE officer who has been serving his country his entire life,” said Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security.
After graduating high school in Peoria, Illinois, in 2001, his career began in the National Guard. From there, Ross went on to join the U.S. Border Patrol and Customs in El Paso, Texas, before becoming a member of ICE’s special response team, where he has been for the past decade.
As a member of the Indiana National Guard, Ross was deployed to Iraq in November 2004 for a year where he served as a gunner in a logistics unit.
