2 Murders in Minneapolis (Film, Book, Soundtrack, 4 Podcast EPs)

Two Murders in Minneapolis is a sobering true-crime documentary that examines the deaths of Renee Goode and Alex Pretti, two lives lost amid a city already strained by unrest, mistrust, and unanswered questions. Set against the backdrop of Minneapolis during a period of heightened law enforcement presence and public tension, the film traces the events leading up to the killings, the official responses that followed, and the gaps that remain.

Through on-the-ground footage, public records, and careful narrative reconstruction, the documentary explores how these deaths were investigated, how information was released—or withheld—and how families and communities were left to grapple with grief in the shadow of authority. Rather than offering easy conclusions, the film invites viewers to sit with discomfort, contradiction, and silence.

Written by Jomo K. Johnson, Two Murders in Minneapolis is not only an account of two cases, but a meditation on power, accountability, and the human cost of systems that operate behind barricades. It asks a haunting question: when justice is obscured, who gets to tell the story—and who is left unheard?
