While George Floyd was neither white nor rich, he had the "advantage" of being murdered not 1 km / ½ mile away by a white MPD (city) officer and so his family was able to bring successful civil claims for tens of millions and the perpetrators were federally and locally investigated, the socio-political landscape changed, and they were prosecuted by the state criminally.

Unfortunately, Renee Nicole Good, a poet and mother of 3 has children who will now grow up without a mother and without justice or recompense because her murderer was a federal official who has nearly unqualified immunity to state and federal criminal prosecution and no civil Bivens nor 1983 actions can be brought. These officials are creating an image of lawless paramilitary with a monopoly on violence unrestrained from any meaningful accountability. Governor Walz and Mayor Frey are telling white lies as to what can be done because they have essentially zero power to investigate or prosecute federal officials. ICE & CBP has only paid out $1 million in damages total for every wrongful death claims in years... it just doesn't happen. ICE & CBP are a "samurai" mafia without a code who can and do kill almost anyone with almost total impunity. Only COTUS can fix this by allowing 1983-like claims and limiting QI/SI, but this is a pipe-dream because the team completely in-charge is deferential to law enforcement over unimportant, non-rich people.

tl;dr: ICE agents can legally get away with killing almost anyone far more easily than 90's LAPD.

yeah people really do seem to underestimate the ramifications of trumps return, but you cannot put a guy like that in a second time and expect good things.
