VP Vance said Renee Nicole Good was to blame for her fatal shooting by an #ICE agent in MPLS, even as the killing remains under investigation by fed & st authorities.

#Vance was responding to a civil rights ATTY who said video showed that IMM officers instigated the confrontation with Good.

MN Gov Walz & MPLS Mayor Frey have scoffed at the claim: #ReneeGood was trying to mow down ICE agents.
