MINNEAPOLIS A U.S. District Court judge in Minnesota ruled Thursday that multiple federal agencies have three weeks to produce troves of unredacted evidence related to the killing of Renee Good by federal immigration agent Jonathan Ross. The evidence is similar to what the state of Minnesota is demanding from Goods killing in an unprecedented lawsuit against the Trump administration filed last month in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
But the order releasing the evidence stems from the prosecution of Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala, who was convicted of assaulting Ross last year in a violent traffic incident in Bloomington. Eric Newmark, the attorney for Muñoz-Guatemala, successfully argued that Goods killing could produce new evidence related to Ross tactics that affects sentencing or the possibility of requesting a new trial.
Judge Jeffrey Bryan ordered the U.S. Attorneys Office for Minnesota, the Justice Department, the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to turn over the following evidence to the court so that a magistrate judge can review it for relevancy:
Muñoz-Guatemala was convicted of assaulting Ross after dragging him several hundred feet with his car on June 17, 2025. Ross was attempting to execute an immigration arrest in Bloomington and his arm was inside the rear window when Muñoz-Guatemala accelerated and attempted to flee. Ross required 20 stitches for a deep cut in his right arm and another 13 stitches in his left hand. The Minnesota Star Tribune reported that Ross was the federal agent who shot Good on Portland Avenue on Jan. 7.
In February, Muñoz-Guatemala asked for the disclosure of personnel and training information for Ross along with the full investigative file related to the fatal shooting of Good. While the federal government objected to the disclosure of the evidence, Bryan ruled that Muñoz-Guatemalas right to due process included the disclosure of any relevant evidence through the sentencing phase of his trial.

(12,316 posts)Seriously. Or what? I mean it's one thing to say you want something but if there are no repercussions if they don't then why would they care?
So far they are largely ignoring the courts or not fully complying with the orders, so there clearly is a two tier justice system in this country.
Carrot and stick.
Carrot for the rich and government and big corporations.
Stick for all us regular people.
