Noem Reveals Results of Internal Review Of ICE Officer Who Shot Renee Good

🔹 No findings on whether the officer violated ICE policy or best practices have been confirmed.

🔹 No decisions on discipline, reassignment, firing, or exoneration have been publicly disclosed.

🔹 No federal criminal charges are being pursued, and the Civil Rights Division has said there is “no basis” to investigate, according to officials.

So while Noem and DHS assert that an internal review exists in process or complete in administrative terms, there is no publicly verifiable summary or conclusion of that review at this time.

🧠 6. Why This Matters

This situation has sparked ongoing debates and policy questions about:

Use-of-force standards for federal immigration agents.

Transparency of internal law enforcement reviews.

Federal vs. state accountability in officer-involved shootings.

The role of public and media scrutiny in shaping perceptions of justice and policy.

Critics argue that an internal review — if not transparent — cannot build trust in policing or immigration enforcement. Supporters of the administration’s approach argue that existing procedures are sufficient when combined with federal oversight and DOJ policies.
