"Border Patrol shoots and kills unarmed woman." It's federal immigration agents, not immigrants, who are the danger to public safety. americasvoice.org/press_releases…
Ur Jaddou, Director of DHS Watch, a project of @AmericasVoice: “It is outrageous that an unarmed, undoc women was shot in the head by an agent sworn to uphold law and justice. This incident must be thoroughly investigated and the agent must be held accountable."
"Moreover, it is time for CBP, and especially the Border Patrol, to be held accountable for multiple incidents of excessive use of force, abuse and corruption. CBP is the largest law enforcement agency in the country but fails even basic accountability. There is no excuse.”
