In 2026 alone, 4 people have been killed by ICE in the streets. Another 21 have died while in ICE custody. Joan Sebastian Guerrero. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. Mohammad Nazeer Paktiawal. Behind each number is a name, a family, and a grieving community. We mourn with them and demand accountability.

Absolutely awful. Two fatal ICE shootings in under a week, and in both cases, no body cameras to show what actually happened. Independent, transparent investigations are the bare minimum here. No matter who or where, ICE does not get to play judge, jury, and executioner.
