https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...uit-californiaUS citizen who was shot by an immigration officer in southern California has filed a $25m lawsuit against the federal government, alleging he was wrongfully shot and arrested, then subjected to a “malicious prosecution”.......
The DOJ claimed he was weaponizing his vehicle. Just like everyone else they've shot at in a car.

expect to see more judges wielding their inherent authority to discipline bad faith, fraud, misleading statements and frivolous arguments by court officers
https://www.justsecurity.org/163989/...-thomas-price/On Monday, a federal district court judge barred a Department of Justice attorney from ever appearing again in a particular case, and promised to review whether two other Department attorneys would suffer a similar fate. In the case, Benitez v. Department of Homeland Security, the plaintiffs allege that federal immigration officers operating in New York have engaged in a practice of arresting people on the basis of their ethnicity and without obtaining required warrants.
In a hearing on Monday before issuing the sanction, U.S. District Judge Sanket J. Bulsara of the Eastern District of New York said the Justice Department’s letter to the court on Nov. 4, 2026 grossly misrepresented the scope of an injunction in another case. Judge Bulsara said Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Price’s signed letter was done in “bad faith, a deliberate attempt to mislead the Court, perpetuate a fraud on the tribunal, and violate[s] obligations under Rule 11.”
Monday’s order also stated: “should the Court discover any future misrepresentation or false statement (either by counsel or any witness or declarant): after an opportunity to be heard, should preliminary findings be confirmed, the Court will enter a default judgment in this case in favor of Plaintiffs.” The order also required that supervisors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office handle the case going forward, and set the deadline for contesting the Rule 11 sanctions as Monday, Nov. 16.
At the hearing, Judge Bulsara also said that he would likely reach the same remedy of disqualification from the case for two other assistant U.S. attorneys whose names appeared in the signature block of the Nov. 4 letter, unless they could show that they were not involved in drafting, reviewing, or submitting the do ent to the court. Monday’s order instructed the two attorneys to provide sworn declarations by Nov. 16 describing “the extent to which they edited, supervised, and/or wrote any portion” of the letter.
no criminal record, several chronic health conditions
US officers should go to jail for like this

They even offered to buy the plane ticket themselves," but instead ICE detained their father for two months, and he died after a 38-hour flight to Pakistan via Maine, Iceland, Bulgaria, and Georgia
releasing critically ill patients to avoid responsibility for their deaths is becoming a pattern
“For eight days, Ahmed's children had no contact from their father. He disappeared from ICE's detainee locator website.”
"Then, on Aug 3, Ahmed's family in Pakistan called his children to share the worst news possible: Their father was dead.”
disappearing detainees to deprive them of access to family and legal counsel
if immigrants can be disappeared, same thing can happen to anyone the government mistakes for an immigrant or strips of legal status

Brouillette shot and killed a Maine resident
https://truthout.org/articles/ice-ag...e-family-says/Brouillette has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has been hospitalized multiple times, family members told the publication. That kind of history is typically supposed to disqualify applicants from being hired by ICE.
Brouillette reportedly longed to be in a law enforcement role for years, including as a teenager, as evidenced by his online screen name at the time, “citizensoldier22.” He briefly served in the U.S. military, and upon returning from Afghanistan, admitted to his then-wife that he regularly employed racial profiling while abroad.
One of his ex-wives, upon learning that Brouillette had killed Guerrero, told local media that she had spoken with him about his joining ICE earlier this year, initially believing he was being “delusional” about the idea, given his history of violence and mental health issues. After the fatal shooting, she told the press that she had asked herself: “How do you keep getting into these jobs where you’re around guns all the time?”
Emen also recounted feeling disbelief at the idea that her brother had been recruited by ICE.
“When I saw his actions on July 13, I just couldn’t believe that it had been allowed to get to that point. I can’t believe that he was onboarded into a federal agency and provided a weapon,” Emen said in a statement to ABC News.
Susan Bedard, Brouillette’s mother, told the Times that her son “is dangerous and should not have weapons.”
“Believe his victims, not him,” Bedard added.
Brouillette has not yet faced any charges for his role in Guerrero’s killing. He has told a local sheriff’s office that he is currently under “executive protection.”
