In six violent encounters, evidence contradicts Trump immigration officials' narratives
This affects the entire country.
Reuters went back and looked at 6 separate violent incidents (Good and Pretti) and examined officials immediate response vs what evidence ultimately showed in each instance.
The Reuters review included these two incidents and four others in recent months that, collectively, show a pattern in which officials rushed to defend immigration officers without waiting for key facts to emerge – in what former immigration officials called a clear break with past practice for federal agencies in such situations.
These initial representations have been challenged by video footage or other evidence, sometimes in court. In one non-lethal shooting in Minnesota, court documents emerged showing the incident began with a case of mistaken identity. A death in a detention center that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security described as an attempted suicide was later ruled a homicide by a county medical examiner.
