The family of Renee Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and mother of three killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in January, filed two lawsuits Thursday in Minnesota federal court.

One suit targets the U.S. government under the Federal Tort Claims Act, seeking damages for wrongful death, assault, battery, negligence, and related claims. The second names ICE agent Jonathan Ross and several Trump administration figures, including White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, border czar Tom Homan, and others. It alleges a conspiracy to interfere with civil rights through an operation specifically aimed at terrorizing Somali and Hispanic communities.

Good was shot on Jan. 7 during Operation Metro Surge, a federal immigration enforcement effort in Minneapolis. According to the complaints, Ross fired three shots into Good's SUV as she attempted to drive away from a confrontation. Federal officials have maintained that the agent acted in self-defense after Good ignored lawful orders and then tried to ram the agent with her vehicle.

The lawsuits describe the shooting as unjustified and claim the broader operation reflected racial animus. They seek unspecified compensatory damages for Good's partner, who witnessed the incident, and for the family's perceived losses. Attorneys for the family stated the filings follow a lack of response from the government on the matter.

The Department of Homeland Security previously characterized Good's actions as an attack on federal agents. The suits represent the first major civil actions against the administration over the winter enforcement actions in Minnesota, which drew protests in the city.

Good's partner Becca Good and brother Brent Ganger brought the cases on behalf of the family. Court records list the cases in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota.
