#Bellingcat looked at five videos filmed during the #Renee #Good murder,
including one apparently from the phone of #Jonathan #Ross,
the ICE agent who shot and killed Good.
While each video alone provides valuable information, the five together provide a fuller picture of the situation as it unfolded.
Synced Overview
One of the ways to visualise the full incident was by tracking the movements of the key players on an overview map,
which Bellingcat did shortly after the incident on Jan. 7.
Using eyewitness video shared by Daniel Suitor on Bluesky we tracked the movements of federal agents at the scene
– including Ross as he moved around the street.
The video also captured the position and movements of Good’s vehicle before, during and after the shots were fired.
Another video, filmed by a bystander and later shared by the Minnesota Reformer,
shows a closer view of Ross’ movements in the moments immediately before the shooting.
In the video, Ross can be seen with his phone in his left hand filming Good
before he pulls his gun out of its holster with his right hand.
Roughly one second elapses before he fires the first round through Good’s front window.
Two more shots follow.
A still from that same video captures Ross as he walks past in the seconds after the shooting.
A video app can be seen open in the federal agent’s phone.
Agent’s Phone
On Jan. 9, a video filmed by Ross was published on X by a conservative news outlet called Alpha News.
By syncing this video up with the other four available videos,
it was possible to observe more of what occurred,
including from Ross’ rough perspective.
However, it is important to note that Ross was holding the phone slightly away from his body,
so what appears in the video would be marginally different to what would have been his line of sight.
In the footage,
Good can be seen backing up before veering to the right
as Ross and the camera move to her left.
It is not clear from this footage exactly how close the car came to Ross,
as the cellphone points up and away as the vehicle moves forward.
Someone can be heard saying “whoa” before gunshots are heard.
An angle captured from down the street
– which some have suggested shows Ross being hit by the vehicle
– does appear to show the vehicle pass close to the agent as he fires.
However, the close-up video shared by the Minnesota Reformer shows Ross moving out of the way and to the side of the vehicle as he fires.
Another video published by CNN shows a head-on view of the incident from surveillance footage.
