New footage of the shooting of Renee Good has been released, which appears to show what the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent responsible for fatally shooting her said straight after.
Good, 37, was shot and killed by the agent in the Minneapolis area on Wednesday (7 January).
The footage, which has since been analysed by a clinical and forensic psychologist, shows Good speaking to ICE agent Jonathan Ross just moments before her death.
President Donald Trump had ordered the agents to carry out raids in the Minneapolis area, as part of his bid to crack down on illegal immigration - a move which has resulted in protests from numerous US citizens.

The 79-year-old's administration went as far as describing Good as a 'domestic terrorist', while the Department of Homeland Security described her as a 'violent rioter', claiming that she was 'weaponising' her vehicle in attempts to run over agents.
The late mum's last words can be heard in the distressing footage obtained by Alpha News, which has continued to circulate online.
Speaking to the officer from her car, Good said: "That's fine, dude. I'm not mad at you," while looking at Ross.
Becca Good, Good's wife, can be seen taunting the officer in the footage while recording her own perspective of events.
"That's okay, we don't change our (number) plates every morning, just so you know. It will be the same plate when you come talk to us later," she said.
Becca went on: "You want to come at us? You want to come at us? I say go and get yourself some lunch, big boy."
Another ICE agent could be heard telling Good to 'Get out of the f***ing car', which was followed by the mum reversing her Honda before driving forward close to the agent, with it remaining unclear if the car clips the officer or not.
Ross can be heard shouting in shock, before firing multiple shots.
As Good's car headed down the road before crashing into parked cars, the agent is seemingly heard muttering, 'f***ing b***h'.
In the hours following the shooting, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said: “They're already trying to spin this as an action of self-defence.
“Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly - that is bulls**t.”
The Department of Homeland Security said that ICE agents are 'trained to use the minimum amount of force necessary to resolve dangerous situations to prioritise safety', while Trump described Good as a 'professional agitator'.
Probed by a journalist about Ross' apparent choice of words before shooting Good, US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said: "I can’t determine which one it is, but it could be, sir."
Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance described the incident as a 'tragedy', but said that the officer would not face any punishment.
Officials at the state level have since explained that they will seek criminal charges against Ross.
Rep. Eric Swalwell spoke at a House Judiciary Committee hearing recently, addressing images which revealed what was in her glove compartment.
He said that it resembled one 'of many parents across the country' - it was filled with stuffed animals.
Swalwell stated: “Not a terrorist,” adding in the direction of ICE agent supporters: “You want to root on, and cheer for her being shot in the face three times?”
