Langworthy’s Response
Tracking Code: [YRWKLY-7LYJ2]
“Recently, disturbing footage emerged from Minneapolis showing the aftermath of a violent confrontation between ICE officers and a rioter who weaponized her vehicle against federal law enforcement officers conducting an operation to arrest an illegal alien.”
“The individual, who is now in custody, chose to disrupt a lawful arrest by driving her vehicle into federal officers carrying out their duties.”
“This was a violent rioter who threatened the lives of law enforcement officers with her vehicle.”
The Facts: What Video Evidence Shows
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey statement:
Video evidence contradicts the claim that Good “weaponized her vehicle” or was a “violent rioter”
What Actually Happened:
- ICE agents were conducting operation in residential neighborhood
- Renee Good was a bystander/witness to the operation
- Agents fired into her vehicle
- Good sustained injuries requiring hospitalization
- Good was subsequently arrested and charged
Key Contradiction: Langworthy’s characterization of Good as a “violent rioter” who “weaponized her vehicle” is directly contradicted by video evidence cited by Minneapolis Mayor Frey.
The Contrast: Alex Pretti Letter
On the same day, Langworthy sent a different letter regarding Alex Pretti, another civilian shot by CBP:
In the Pretti letter:
“I also want to note that Secretary Noem’s characterization of Alex Pretti as a ‘domestic terrorist’ were reprehensible and should not be tolerated.”
The Double Standard:
| Victim | Official Characterization | Langworthy’s Response |
|---|---|---|
| Alex Pretti | Noem: “domestic terrorist” | “Reprehensible and should not be tolerated” |
| Renee Good | Langworthy: “violent rioter” | Used this characterization himself |
Both victims were shot by federal agents. One receives defense against inflammatory labels; the other receives the inflammatory label from Langworthy directly.
