The ICE Accountability Gap: A Pattern of Unchecked Force The shooting death of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official in Houston, Texas, has sparked widespread outrage and calls for transparency from civil rights groups and lawmakers.
This tragic event is the latest in a string of high profile incidents where ICE agents have used lethal force against migrants and US citizens under dubious circumstances.
The Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) response to Salgado's killing follows a familiar pattern: issuing a statement that raises more questions than answers.
