The family of Renee Good has released preliminary results from an independent medical examination as they continue to search for clarity following her death earlier this year. Renee, a 37-year-old parent of three, died after an encounter with federal law enforcement officers in Minneapolis shortly after dropping off her youngest child at school. In the weeks since, her family has retained civil rights attorneys and launched a parallel review alongside official investigations, stating that their priority is transparency and a full understanding of what occurred—while also keeping Renee’s life and legacy at the center of the conversation.
According to statements from the family’s legal team, the independent examination confirmed the cause of death and identified multiple firearm-related injuries. Authorities had previously reported that Renee was found unresponsive in her vehicle following the incident. While investigations by public agencies remain ongoing, attorneys for the family say the independent medical review provides an additional, objective record to support their legal assessment. They emphasized that evidence collection and analysis are continuing and that no conclusions will be drawn prematurely.
As public attention grows, Renee’s loved ones have asked that discussions not lose sight of who she was beyond the circumstances of her death. Family members describe her as a devoted spouse, a loving parent, and someone deeply connected to her community. Her wife, Becca, has publicly shared gratitude for the outpouring of support, noting that messages, meals, and community care have helped sustain the family during an overwhelming period of grief. Friends and relatives remember Renee for her compassion, strong values, and quiet dedication to helping others.
Community response has included vigils, fundraising efforts, and renewed calls for thorough oversight and accountability in law enforcement practices. Multiple agencies have acknowledged the seriousness of the case and remain involved in reviewing the events. As legal processes move forward, Renee’s family says their goal remains twofold: to seek clear answers and to honor her memory. They hope ongoing conversations continue to reflect not only the investigation, but also the love she gave, the family she cherished, and the meaningful impact she left behind.
