ICE told to get the eff out

The Hennepin County Attorney says otherwise.
Not really important what she thinks, the FBI has frozen them out of any investigation locally because they are not capable of organising any investigations that would be meaningful,
 
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said that although her office has collaborated effectively with the FBI in past cases, she is concerned by the Trump administration’s decision to bar state and local agencies from playing any role in the investigation into Good’s killing. She also said the officer who shot Good in the head does not have complete legal immunity, as Vance declared.

“We do have jurisdiction to make this decision with what happened in this case,” Moriarty said at a news conference. “It does not matter that it was a federal law enforcement agent.”
That's right he is not immune from state prosecution however as the state have no (and never will) have any access to any evidence a case will seemingly never be brought. Or not whilst this regime is in power anyway.
 
The bar for lawful deadly force is quite low in the US, by our standards. While it's true that Tennessee v. Garner, established deadly force cannot be used as a means to prevent escape, unless there are other factors (serious risk to life/injury etc). Graham v. Connor (1989 established the test "the Graham Factors") if anyone wants to google it. In Ellis v. Wynalda the act of throwing a bag at an officer gave him grounds to use deadly force at that moment. So I can see hitting someone with a car would meet that requirement.

It has been clearly established in the US that deadly force (unmatched force in seizure) is a reasonable force option when the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses an immediate threat of death or serious bodily harm to the officer or others.

Complaining that she was murdered is like arguing against a Saudi beheading based on a show trial. Different country, different rules.

In this case, what was the immediate threat of death or serious bodily harm.
 
Driving her car and hitting the ICE agent, her car was also picking up speed towards him.

The vehicle was turned away from him. From his own footage, it is obvious he could see that. And it was going very slowly. We know from his final comment, '****ing bitch', why he did it. He was wound up and angry. Those two women would have annoyed me as well. But that is no reason to kill someone.

What do you think about him holding his gun in one hand whilst filming with his phone with the other hand. Is that professional. Also, the rule is that, even if he is in mortal danger, he can only shoot if there is unable to get out of the way. A simple step to the right would have avoided all this. So, following their own rules, he is guilty.

This is the definition of serious bodily harm:

In the US, serious bodily harm (often referred to as serious bodily injury) is a legal term defined across federal and state laws as a physical injury that involves a substantial risk of death, protracted and obvious disfigurement, or a protracted loss or impairment of the function of a bodily member, organ, or mental faculty.

Even if he was clipped by her bumper at 2mph, that comes nowhere close to meeting the definition.

The second two shots at point blank range into her head, after she had actually passed him, were obviously illegal.

You haven't watched the video I posted above then?
