Lawyers representing Renee Good’s family released preliminary results of an independent autopsy Jan. 21 showing details consistent with a report from local first responders.
Good was shot and killed by a federal immigration agent, Jonathan Ross, the morning of Jan. 7 in south Minneapolis.
The law firm Romanucci & Blandin said an autopsy commissioned by Good’s family showed three clear gunshot “paths” that caused four wounds: one each to the left side of her head, left forearm and right side of her chest, and a fourth wound described as “a graze wound consistent with a firearm injury.” The law firm’s news release did not specify where that wound was found.
The wounds to Good’s forearm and chest were not immediately life-threatening, the law firm said.
The details are similar to those included in reports made public last week from the Minneapolis fire and police departments. The fire department’s incident report described wounds to the left side of Good’s head, her left forearm and two apparent wounds on the right side of her chest.
The law firm did not say who performed the independent autopsy beyond calling them a “highly respected and credentialed medical pathologist.”
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office has not released the results of its autopsy to the family.
“Our legal team will continue its unwavering and proactive advocacy for Renee’s life and her family,” attorney Antonio Romanucci said in a statement.
