ICE Lied, Case Dismissed

Debates


Remember the other Minneapolis shooting by ICE where Kristi Noem claimed officers were attacked by dangerous terrorists wielding a shovel and a broom? Well it turns out:

"Todd Lyons, acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, admitted that two agents made "untruthful" statements following the shooting of Julio Sosa Celis in Minnesota.

Earlier this week, prosecutors asked a federal judge to dismiss charges against Sosa and Alfredo Aljorna. An FBI agent had claimed to the court that the men took part in an attack on ICE officers with a shovel and a broom handle before Sosa was shot.

"Today, a joint review by ICE and the Department of Justice (DOJ) of video evidence has revealed that sworn testimony provided by two separate officers appears to have made untruthful statements," Lyons said in a statement on Friday. "Both officers have been immediately placed on administrative leave pending the completion of a thorough internal investigation."

"Lying under oath is a serious federal offense. The U.S. Attorney's Office is actively investigating these false statements," he added. "Upon conclusion of the investigation, the officers may face termination of employment, as well as potential criminal prosecution."

""Our ICE agents are following the law and running their operations according to training. Last night, what we saw was three individuals, weaponized shovels and brooms, and attacked an ICE officer that had to defend himself," Noem said.

On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Paul A. Magnuson ordered the case against the men to be dismissed with prejudice, meaning prosecutors cannot refile charges."

As the Minneapolis invasion winds down, it is essential that justice be served against government thugs who used excessive force and then lied about it. Hopefully these agents and the killers of Good and Pretti face the criminal charges they deserve.

At least Homan has finally declared that "Operation Metro Surge" is over.

Let's hope we see a complete draw-down of ICE out of Minnesota, among other places.

Probably not, given that Trump has weaponized the Federal law enforcement agencies to do HIS bidding, instead of working for the American People.

Some think it means 'lawyer' but it does not. It is a traditional term of respect of showing respect for someone, dates back to medieval times England. It can be addressed to anyone other than a lawyer. In the real world it is considered pretentious for a lawyer to put it at the end of their name. Like, what if the lawyer is not a person of respect,,,,,,he could hardly be deserving of such a moniker.
