A controversial GoFundMe backing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Jonathan Ross has surged past £400,000 ($520,000) within 48 hours of its launch, intensifying debate over the fatal shooting of Minneapolis resident Renee Nicole Good and how crowdfunding platforms police high‑profile cases.
The fundraiser, created by private organiser Clyde Emmons of Mount Forest, Michigan, went live shortly after Ross was identified as the ICE agent who shot 37‑year‑old Good on 7 January 2026 during an immigration operation in her neighbourhood. One reported £8,000 ($10,000) donation attributed to billionaire investor Bill Ackman, who cited 'innocent until proven guilty', helped turn the campaign into the centre of a national debate.
