Although they are not 100% reliable, I hope someone is collecting eye witness testimony along with the ICE agents body cams, video at link:

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, "Move, move, move."

So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

@# ... with the ICE agents body cams ...

Do ICE agents wear body cams?

If so, why was the ICE agent in the video (linked in #2) [and, wow, that was an amazing video segment. thx] apparently using his cell phone to record what was happening?

@#6

The video starts with the statement, "As cops, we are responsible for every single round that leaves our weapon."

"If someone is fleeing, that is not justification for deadly force."

"Been going on for decades"

Yes, that is the point O'Donnell was making by discussing an article he wrote back in 1979 about a man cops killed and then immediately began to lie about.
