   [Spam] New documents shed light on Renee

   The woman killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in   
   Minneapolis last week served on the board of her son’s school, which   
   linked to documents encouraging parents to monitor ICE and directing   
   them to training.   
      
   The documents shed new light on Renee Good’s connection to efforts to   
   monitor and potentially disrupt ICE operations – an association that   
   federal officials have made clear is at the center of their review into   
   the deadly incident that occurred as she partially blocked ICE agents in   
   the street with her SUV.   
      
   But four legal experts who reviewed the documents for CNN said they   
   largely describe nonviolent civil disobedience tactics practiced at   
   American protests for generations – far from the sinister depiction of   
   extremism and domestic terrorism portrayed by Trump administration   
   officials like Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Vice   
   President JD Vance.   
      
   “There’s nothing in there that suggests attacking ICE agents or engaging   
   in any other form of physical harm or property damage,” said Timothy   
   Zick, a professor at William and Mary Law School who wrote a book on   
   protest law. “This is authoritarianism 101 where you blame the   
   dissenters and the activists for causing their own death.”   
      
   Three top federal prosecutors in Minneapolis resigned Tuesday over   
   pressure from the Trump administration to focus their probe on the   
   actions of Good and those around her, according to a person briefed on   
   the matter.   
      
   One of the documents linked by the school appears to be a message to   
   parents dated December 16 that begins, “Thank you to families who have   
   been on ICE watch, helping to protect their neighbors.”   
      
   The note links to a separate training document with guides on getting   
   whistles to alert neighbors to ICE raids and contact information for a   
   school parent offering “noncooperation training.”   
      
   “ICE are untrained bullies looking for easy targets. Neighbors showing   
   up have saved lives,” that training document reads.   
      
   Another guide linked to in the training document stresses nonviolent   
   responses to ICE agents, while also encouraging a refusal to “comply   
   with demands, requests, and orders.” It suggests “creative tactics,”   
   noting that “Crowds, props, traffic, and noise can make detentions   
   difficult, sometimes ICE vehicles can’t move (‘whoops!’).” It does not   
   specifically suggest blocking operations with a vehicle.   
      
   The December 16 note, titled “School Report,” was an item on the school   
   board’s meeting on that date, an agenda shows – a meeting that Good   
   attended as one of three parents on the board of the Southside Family   
   Charter School.
