I’ve never heard of a “law enforcement” agency putting an officer who just killed someone back on the street under 24 hours. And that’s because all shootings are treated as homicides pending investigation. This is as clear a sign as you’ll get that DHS personnel enjoy practical immunity from murder.
CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.
This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Additionally, any law enforcement person(s) who can kill a prone civilian and then feel mentally well enough to work the next day should not be on the streets anywhere.

Doesn’t think, can’t apologize, doesn’t care or love or develop relationships…it’s a tool, a mis(over)used one at that.
You’re better off anthropomorphizing analog household appliances that at least have some built in safeguards to prevent harm.

And what is happening inside ICE detention centers? 404 Media also learned that the federal government claimed that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
ICE Says Critical Evidence In Abuse Case Was Lost In 'System Crash' a Day After It Was Sued
The government also said "we don't have resources" to retain all footage and that plaintiffs could supply "endless hard drives that we could save things to."

"Why is it so normal for law enforcement — those who are supposed to be keepers of law and order — to kill Americans? And why is the only question at the end of the day how much their victims deserved to die?"

First doctor on the scene after Alex Pretti was shot was delayed by ICE agents who were standing around "counting his bullet wounds" instead of administering aid. None had even checked if he had a pulse.
BREAKING: A young doctor who lives near where Alex Pretti, a nurse, was killed by ICE says in a declaration he saw the shooting, went out to help, was not let through at first then patted down before being let by, and was apparently the first to try and provide any medical assistance to Pretti.

This is what police have been doing to black Americans since forever. Enough of the "this isn't who we are." You're now noticing because it's white people.

The central question of the last decade+ in America is if the police can kill you if they feel afraid, and it was my understanding that you sign up for the job knowing there’s going to be danger and you’re paid to be better than “I shot him because I was scared”

ICE left them alone when more community members showed up to witness the attack and scream at them to stop
This scenario keeps happening everywhere. It's evidence that ICE is behaving more like bandits than law enforcement

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage.
Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.

I keep thinking about how the people of Minneapolis already went through so much in the last six years and now have to survive ICE's mass brutality across the city. Melissa Hortman, her husband, and their dog were assassinated less than a year ago last June.
