#Trump put a premium on swift action, & for #ICE that meant rapid-fire recruitment & hiring, which in turn led to new employees with questionable qualifications. Their backgrounds & training have come under scrutiny after numerous high-profile incidents in which ICE agents used #ExcessiveForce.

An allegation of #lying in a police report to justify a #felony charge against an innocent woman—an incident that led to a $75,000 settlement & criticism of his integrity. A 3rd job candidate once #failed to graduate from a police academy, then lasted only 3 weeks in his only job as a police officer.

ICE went on a hiring spree. Sterling credentials not required

Some new U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers started working before passing background checks and had problems in their past. ICE announced in January that it completed an unprecedented hiring spree, adding 12,000 officers and agents to double its force. Their mission is to help carry out President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign. But the speed with which they were brought on to the payroll, to jobs considered important for national security, has raised alarm. The Associated Press found one new ICE hire had filed for bankruptcy twice and worked for six law enforcement agencies in three years. Another was accused of lying in a police report to justify a felony charge against an innocent woman. A third quit his only prior policing job after three weeks.

The video contradicts the agent’s claim that 3 assailants had beaten him with a shovel & broom for roughly 3 minutes before he opened fire. Instead, the confrontation depicted in the video lasts about 12 seconds & shows 2 men struggling with the agent. It shows no sustained attack with a shovel.
