Was the site of Renee goods killing in between her residence and st Joan of arc church?
Executive summary
Reporting establishes that Renée Good was shot and killed in Minneapolis and that she lived “a few blocks” from the scene [1], and that South Side (or Southside) Family Charter School — where her child is enrolled — is housed on the property of St. Joan of Arc Church in south Minneapolis [2] [3]. None of the supplied reporting, however, directly states that the site of the killing lay on a straight-line route “between” her residence and St. Joan of Arc Church; available sources show proximity but do not document the precise spatial relationship required to affirm the user's phrasing.
1. What the local reporting actually says about where she lived and where she died
Multiple local outlets describe Renée Good as living “a few blocks” from the place she was shot and memorialized, and they repeatedly place the fatal encounter in Minneapolis neighborhoods under widespread coverage and community vigil activity [1] [4]. That phrasing establishes close neighborhood proximity between her home and the shooting site, but it is a distance descriptor, not a mapped route or direction [1].
2. What the reporting says about St. Joan of Arc Church and the nearby school
Reporting about the fallout after Good’s death highlights the South Side/Southside Family Charter School — the school attended by her child — and notes that the school is housed on the property of St. Joan of Arc Church in south Minneapolis [2] [3]. Those accounts place the church and school in the same immediate location, and they form the most direct link in the supplied material between Good’s family and the church property [2].
3. Proximity is documented, but “between” is a specific claim the sources do not make
Saying the shooting occurred “a few blocks” from her home [1] and saying that the church/school sits in south Minneapolis [3] [2] are both factual in the reporting, yet neither article maps the lines needed to conclude the shooting site was physically between her residence and the church. The supplied coverage focuses on neighborhood proximity, community reaction and threats to the school, not on providing a street-level route analysis that would support the exact wording “in between her residence and St Joan of Arc Church” [3] [2] [1].
4. Alternative plausible readings and why they matter
One reasonable interpretation from these pieces is that all three points — Good’s residence, the shooting site, and the St. Joan of Arc property — lie in the same southern/central Minneapolis area and are within a few blocks of one another, which may explain why both the memorial and school-community responses became intertwined in coverage [1] [2]. Another reading is more cautious: without geocoded addresses, publicly released maps, or reporting that traces a route, the assertion that the shooting site lay “between” two specific points is stronger than the available evidence allows [1] [2].
5. Conclusion and reporting limitation
Based on the supplied reporting, it is accurate to say Renée Good lived a short distance from where she was killed and that St. Joan of Arc Church and the Southside Family Charter School are located on the same south Minneapolis property [1] [2] [3]. However, the sources do not provide the precise spatial or routing detail necessary to confirm the narrower claim that the site of the killing was specifically “in between” her residence and St. Joan of Arc Church; that conclusion cannot be firmly supported or refuted from the reporting provided [1] [2].
