A whistleblower has claimed that the FBI allegedly halted an investigation into the death of Renee Good, a queer mother of three killed by an ICE agent, because Director Kash Patel did not want the warrant to describe her as a ‘victim’.

According to Senate Judiciary Democrats, forensic teams were reportedly ordered to stand down while the warrant was rewritten, delaying evidence collection.

The allegations suggest that Patel aimed to cast Good not as a victim but as a threat to law enforcement, potentially obstructing standard civil rights and use-of-force protocols.

    Might as well beat the rush and start looking now. Nobody is on the fence at this point and folk tend to double.down rather than repent.
