Blocking state access only deepens public distrust and undermines this investigation. Minnesota deserves transparency. Renee deserves justice.

What we are seeing now is an attempt to justify Renee Good’s killing by degrading her character and flooding the public with rhetoric meant to make her death seem acceptable.
That is untrue. It is cruel. It is unnecessary. And it is shameful. We will not accept lies in place of accountability.

Keith Ellison: "They're simply trying to justify her killing. They're trying to convince the public through their rhetoric that it's okay that she's dead. And that is unacceptable and it's untrue. It's also cruel and completely unnecessary. This is a mother of three. This is someone's wife ... "

Nothing will keep me from fighting for Minnesotans. Trump's cruelty will not go unchecked here.
Great news: we have secured a temporary pause to Trump’s latest assault on the most vulnerable Minnesota families.
My team and I will be in court working to permanently block Trump’s illegal and deeply cruel actions.

The shootings this week in both Minneapolis and Portland highlight the need for public officials who fight for truth and justice.
As ICE agents run rampant in the streets, we're thankful for AGs @keithellison.bsky.social & @danrayfield.bsky.social, who are meeting the moment and not looking away.

On the Matter of the Killing of Renee Nicole Good, please know that I’m doing all that I can as fast as I can. I’m not trying to dissuade anyone from sharing their views, post whatever you want. But rest assured that it’s not necessary for anyone to push me to pursue justice.

We are in an unprecedented moment. ICE is being directed to act this way, while top federal officials are stating overt lies before any investigation has even begun.
When agencies police their own misconduct, trust collapses. That’s why Minnesota state investigators must be involved.

Ellison: "State authorities can investigate anyway. We don't need their authority. It's at least arguable that there's a violation of MN statues here. All of them depend on an investigation though. And the federal govt can't stop MN from doing it's own, but I would hope it wouldn't come to that."

Keith Ellison on Kristi Noem blatantly lying about the circumstances of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis: "It's just deeply heartbreaking to see a person responsible for safety and enforcement of American law make such a brazenly false statement. It is truly sad for our democracy."
