'Radical person': Trump justifies Renee Good's fatal shooting by ICE agent; flags disrespect to law enforcement

US President Donald Trump on Sunday justified the killing of Renee Nicole Good by the ICE agent in Minneapolis last week, claiming that the woman was radical and violent.While talking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump cited the clips just before an ICE agent shot Renee and said that no one should treat the law enforcement agents in a disrespectful manner.”Everyone’s seen it. And the woman was very violent. She’s a very radical person. Very sad what happened. Her friend was very radical,” Trump said.”You can’t be treating law enforcement that way, whether it’s ICE or Border Patrol or our police and men and women. You can’t do that,” he added.The US President also took a sharp jibe at his predecessor Joe Biden, accusing him of allowing people to pour through an open border.”You know, the law enforcement our country is doing really well despite the fact that Sleepy Joe Biden allowed people to pour through an open border. Crime stats just came out. We have the best crime stats on record, despite all the criminals he allowed into our country. We’ve gotten a lot of them out,” Trump said.”We have to respect our law enforcement at a very minimum. That woman was very, very disrespectful to law enforcement. And you heard the same noises, you saw the same crunch that I saw. You can’t do that with law enforcement, whether it’s or ICE or Border Patrol or anybody else,” he added.This comes days after an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, a US citizen, during an encounter in south Minneapolis.Renee was sitting in her car when she was shot. Videos of the incident, filmed from different angles, spread quickly online and triggered sharp and emotional reactions across the country.Minnesota state leaders described the shooting as an unjustified use of lethal force against a civilian who was trying to leave the scene.However, Donald Trump administration confirmed the shooting and said the woman was a rioter who in her vehicle attempted to run over law enforcement officers.The administration branded Renee’s attempt to mow ICE agents down with her vehicle as domestic terrorism.
