(105,845 posts)25. It's not clear that the parents were Trump voters; many reports have mixed up father and ex-father-in-law
For the Good family, rather than ex-in-laws, we have:
Amid reports that Goods father Tim Ganger is a supporter of Trump, attorney Atonio Romanucci told ABC News that some in Goods family voted for the Trump administration during the 2024 elections, but said that after her death her family is united as to what happened against Renee.
"In the last election, some of her family voted in for this administration, but despite that, they are united now that this killing was wrong and they all want redress and accountability, he said.

The family issued a statement about the 37-year-old mother of three the same day they announced they would be pursuing a civil investigation aiming to hold ICE accountable.
In statements where they called Good "the beautiful light of our family," the womans four siblings, parents and their attorneys described the shooting as a result of a chance encounter after dropping her 6-year-old child off at school.
"We want to thank everyone who has reached out in support of Renee and our family. The kind of unending care weve been given during this time is exactly the kind that she gave to everyone," Goods family said in a letter shared with USA TODAY. "Nae was the beautiful light of our family and brought joy to anyone she met. She was relentlessly hopeful and optimistic which was contagious. We all already miss her more than words could ever express."
...
"She was our best friend with a seemingly infinite capacity for love. Nae-Nae gave everything she had to take care of her friends and family, and indeed people she never met," Goods family said. "She was our protector, our shoulder to cry on, and our scintillating source of joy."
The new details come as the family announced a Chicago-based law firm is launching an investigation into Goods death. The investigation comes as Justice Department officials say there is "no basis" for an investigation in the case. The firm, Romanucci & Blandin, is the same group that represented the family of George Floyd after he was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis in 2020.

It seems that Trump picked up this "father was a big Trump fan" from a question to him by a reporter, so the chain of possible mistakes, exaggerations or lies there is long. I don't think they need further pressuring on it.
