She was Renée Nicole Good, and she was a mum to a 6-year-old boy and a widow, so there is now a little boy who has lost his birth parents, and Good’s partner is now a widow who has to keep it together … because the most important woman in their lives was killed over nothing by a paramilitary force.
A victim of obsessive high-control politics, cosplaytriot cowboy fantasies, white supremacy, and Nazism.
Donna Ganger told the Minnesota Star Tribune that her daughter lived in the Twin Cities with her partner. In a joint statement, several Minneapolis City Council members confirmed she lived in the city.
Ganger said the family was notified of the death late Wednesday morning.
“That’s so stupid” that she was killed, Ganger said, after learning some of the circumstances from a reporter. “She was probably terrified.”
… An Instagram account that appears to be Good’s describes her as a “poet and writer and wife and mom and shitty guitar strummer from Colorado; experiencing Minneapolis, MN.”
Good had previously been married to Timmy Ray Macklin Jr., who died in 2023 at the age of 36. Macklin’s father, Timmy Ray Macklin Sr., was shocked to hear the news that Good had been shot and killed.
He said Good and his son had a child who is now 6 years old. “There’s nobody else in his life,” Macklin Sr. said. “I’ll drive. I’ll fly. To come and get my grandchild.”
