Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network Condemns ICE Violence Amid Minnesota Shooting, Local Residents Say They've Faced Similar Issues

In the wake of a deadly shooting in Minneapolis where an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent killed 37-year-old Renee Good, members of the Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network have come forward to condemn the violence and express their solidarity with the South Bay immigrant community. The network, which aims to protect, empower, and serve the local community, reiterated its support for the immigrant population after witnessing similar instances of ICE brutality locally.

According to responders, including Mariana Haro and Stephanie Jayne, who are part of the Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network, they have observed numerous instances of ICE violence, including agents breaking car windows to drag people out of vehicles, beating individuals who are already handcuffed, and disregarding people's medical needs. The network has also seen ICE agents targeting its members, with Yesenia Campos being forcibly detained in October during a legal observation.

Campos, who was observing protesters like Minneapolis residents but was met with force by an ICE agent, said, "I did exactly what the protesters were doing: observing, documenting, and exercising my rights. And an ICE agent decided to charge at me with force when I was complying and not a threat to him at all." Campos' account echoes the sentiments of many in the community who feel that they are being targeted by ICE.

The Rapid Response Network took steps to protect responders following the incident in Minneapolis, and local leaders have also taken measures to limit ICE's ability to operate in schools and hospitals. However, the network remains committed to speaking out against ICE violence.

"We are tired of seeing the same pattern repeat: a killing, a press conference, an investigation that goes nowhere, and families left to grieve without justice," Campos said. "Say her name. Tell the truth, and end this violence now."

The Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network has expressed its solidarity with the Minnesota community and calls for continued support in addressing ICE violence. The network's stance serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggles faced by immigrant communities and the need for advocacy and action to protect their rights and safety.

this is so messed up,ICE should just leave ppl alone they're just trying to live their lives but no one gives them that chance local law enforcement needs to step in and stop letting ICE run amok, it's not right for the community to have to deal with this kinda violence all the time communities need to look out for each other more too, people are saying "say her name" but what about saying something for everyone who gets hurt by these agents?

 

[Killer Dinosa]

This is just so heartbreaking I mean, 37 years old, Renee Good was taken away from her family like that? No way! And all because an ICE agent wanted to "enforce" the law... or whatever . I'm not buying it. We need to stand up for our communities and demand justice, you know? The fact that these Santa Clara County folks are speaking out against this violence is a huge step forward . We can't just sit back and let ICE get away with this stuff. They're supposed to be protecting us, not terrorizing us . And what's with the lack of accountability for these agents? It's time for some serious change .

 

[Wild Wolf]

I'm like "yep, this is exactly what we've been talking about"... remember when the OP was saying that ICE agents were always getting away with this stuff? Fast forward to Renee Good's murder in Minneapolis, and now people are finally speaking out. It's about time, tbh. The thing that's really bothering me is how these agents are getting a free pass every time... like, what even is the point of an investigation if they're just gonna sweep it under the rug? And Campos' story is SO relatable... I mean, who hasn't felt like they're being targeted or harassed by ICE at some point? It's like, we've been saying this for years, but nobody's listening. Now that people are finally speaking out, maybe we'll start to see some real change... fingers crossed!

 

[Guitar NASCAR Prophec]

can't believe people still get hurt by these ICE agents... like what even is the point of having an agent if they're just gonna break windows and beat ppl? i mean, Renee Good was literally just minding her own biz and then BANG! ICE comes outta nowhere and kills her... 37 yrs old! how can we expect ppl to feel safe when this is the kinda "justice" they're dealing with? need more accountability from these agencies, like for real

 

[Elderly Hang Glider]

OMG u guys , this is soooo messed up!!! ICE agents r literally human beings, but they're treatin people like animals ! Renee Good's death is a total tragedy & it's only gettin worse for ppl in the South Bay who've been dealin w/ ICE brutality 2. They're breakin windows, beatin ppl whos already handcuffed, & disregardin peoples medical needs...it's wild how much abuse ppl are facin from these agents . And now they r targetin members of the Rapid Response Network like Yesenia Campos? No way!! We gotta stand w/ them & demand justice for Renee Good & all the other victims of ICE violence

 

[Return of th]

this is so sickening, i mean who do we think they are to just come at ppl like that?ICE agents need to be held accountable for their actions. I remember reading about some ppl in my city who got detained by ICE because they were just trying to report a crime or something and ended up getting beaten & thrown in jail. It's crazy how these ppl think they're above the law.

 

[Alive Anteater]

come on people we gotta stand together against this ICE brutality . I mean, witnessing agents break car windows, beat ppl already handcuffed? that's just wrong . Local residents r saying they've faced similar issues too, like being targeted by ICE agents at protests or in their own communities . We need 2 take a stand & demand justice for these families who've lost loved ones . It's not just about Renee Good's case, it's about the systemic violence that's happening every day . The Rapid Response Network is doing some great work btw, so let's support them too

 

[Obedi]

Man, this is just so depressing . I've seen some crazy stuff on social media from people in my community who have been targeted by ICE agents too . They're always talking about "upholding the law" but really they're just using it as an excuse to intimidate and harm people. It's like, what even is that?

I've tried to make some homemade security cameras for my friends in Santa Clara County who are part of the Rapid Response Network, they can't afford all those fancy systems . We've also been talking about setting up a community fund to support families of people who have been affected by ICE violence - it's just not right what's happening to these folks .

I wish more people would speak out against this stuff, it's like we're all just letting it happen without even caring . But at the same time, I'm proud of the Rapid Response Network for standing up and saying something is wrong. They're doing some real work to protect their community, that's gotta be commended .

 

[Outrageo]

OMG, you guys I'm literally shaking right now thinking about what those ICE agents did to Renee Good she was just trying to exercise her rights like Yesenia Campos did and yet they killed her it's so not okay that these agents are allowed to do this without facing any real consequences

and can we talk about how the Rapid Response Network is literally fighting against these systemic issues every single day? I mean, Mariana Haro and Stephanie Jayne have been observing ICE brutality in their own community for who knows how long and now they're speaking out it's about time someone did something to hold those agents accountable

but what really gets me is when people say that Renee Good was a threat to the agent like, no way Jose she was just a mom trying to make ends meet and protect her community and now we're left with this senseless tragedy and I'm literally so done with it

I don't know how much more of this I can take but I do know that we need to keep fighting for justice for Renee, for Yesenia, for all the families who have been affected by ICE violence let's make some noise and demand change

 

[Nutty Newt]

Ugh, this is getting out of hand ICE agents are literally becoming lawless. I mean, dragging people out of cars and beating them just because they're not cooperating? That's insane! And yesenia Campos was just doing her job as a witness, and still got assaulted by an agent. It's like they think they're above the law or something . The fact that local leaders are trying to limit ICE's presence in schools and hospitals is a step in the right direction, but we need to do more . We can't just sit back and let these agents continue to terrorize innocent people. We need real action, not just empty words .

 

[Prehistoric B]

the fact that there is still a Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network trying to protect people from ICE brutality is actually kinda reassuring but at the same time, it's concerning how many instances of violence are reported here... i mean, breaking car windows and beating someone who's already handcuffed? that sounds like some serious police misconduct to me and what's up with Yesenia Campos being detained for observing protesters? shouldn't she have been able to do her job without getting harassed? also, the fact that local leaders are taking steps to limit ICE's presence in schools and hospitals is a good start, but we need more systemic changes to address the root issues here...

 

[Brain-]

I'm so worried about these people, living in fear of being targeted by ICE agents. Back in my day... we didn't think it was okay for cops to just take someone down without even trying to talk to them first. Now, I see this happening with immigration officials too. It's like they're above the law or something . These responders are putting themselves out there every day, documenting and witnessing these brutal incidents, and it's just not right. We need to stand up for our immigrant friends and make sure their voices are heard. It's time for some change, you know? We can't keep living in fear of being treated like that.

 

[Nudist Blim]

Man, this is so sad . You see, it's like, we live in this society where everyone's just trying to survive, but ICE is just making it worse . I mean, can you imagine being in Renee Good's shoes, witnessing her senseless murder, and then having to deal with the trauma of knowing that people are still getting targeted by these agents? It's like, we're living in a never-ending nightmare .

And it's not just the victims, it's also the families, friends, and community members who are left to pick up the pieces . We need to recognize that this is not just about Renee or Yesenia, but about all of us, our humanity, our right to safety, and our dignity .

We have to keep speaking out, demanding change, and supporting those who are fighting against ICE brutality . It's like, we can't just sit back and let this happen anymore . We need to take action, raise our voices, and create a world where everyone is treated with respect, kindness, and compassion .

 

[Extreme Ha]

omg can't believe what's happening to these ppl like, 37 yrs old woman killed and no justice, just saying her name isn't enough, we gotta do more ICE is literally out of control and our local community has been dealing with this too, i know people who have had their windows broken or got beat up by agents when they weren't even doing anything wrong it's so frustrating and scary, but the Rapid Response Network is speaking out and we need to listen and take action gotta support these ppl and make some noise for change

 

[Curious Cassowary]

ICE is outta control . Can't believe they'd target someone just for doing their job right . Local residents have been dealing with this nonsense for ages, so it's not like Minneapolis was a surprise . We need more people standing up against this brutality and demanding real justice for the families affected .

 

[Create]

ugh i was just reading about this crazy stuff happening in minneapolis where an ice agent killed some woman and now santa clara county is all like oh no we feel you too it's so frustrating when these networks have to deal with this stuff and they're not even getting any real support from the gov. i mean we need more than just words, we need action it's not fair that ppl are being targeted by ice just for documenting protests or exercising their rights anyway, i'm glad these networks are speaking out but we need more people to listen and take action

 

[Helpful Hornet]

I'm literally shook by this news . It's so sad that Renee Good had to go through what she did, and now her family is left to pick up the pieces . But you know what really gets me? The fact that ICE agents have been doing this stuff right here in our own community . I mean, we're talking about people being dragged out of their cars, beaten while they're already handcuffed... it's just outrageous .

And to think that there are people who are just walking around, minding their own business, and ICE comes along and decides to make a scene . Yesenia Campos' story is giving me all the feels . She was just doing her job, observing protesters like everyone else, and then BAM! An ICE agent comes charging at her with force. It's like, what even is that? .

We need to do better, folks . We need to stand up for our community members who are being targeted by ICE. We need to demand justice for people like Renee Good and Yesenia Campos . And we need to keep calling out ICE violence until it stops happening . It's time for us to take a stand and fight for what's right

 

[Fair Fox]

omg this is insane i cant believe that ice agents are literally being violent and targeting people just for doing what they think is right lol but seriously, its heartbreaking how mariana haro and stephanie jayne are speaking out about these issues in santa clara county too... we need more ppl like them advocating for immigrant rights i feel so bad for yesenia campos tho, getting detained for just observing protesters... that's just not right lets keep spreading awareness and supporting these networks, maybe one day we can create a world where everyone is treated with respect and kindness

 

[Future Ma]

this is just so sad what happened to that woman she was just trying to do her job like everyone else but got caught up in all this ICE drama my aunt used to live in santa clara county and i know how close-knit the community is it's crazy they're having to deal with this stuff on top of everything else
