The Californer - Political Analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson Charges Good Not the First or Worst ICE Shooting

Trending...

LOS ANGELES - Californer -- In his latest work The ICE Shooting Scorecard (Middle Passage Press) political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson details these dangerous factoids about ICE:

ICE killed, wounded or shot at dozens of unarmed civilians in 2025. The most in its history.
No ICE agent has been charged with any unwarranted shooting.
There will be no prosecution of an ICE agent during Trumps tenure in Office.
ICE gun policy is an unstated open license to use deadly force solely on the agent's discretion.
Homeland Security will never criticize an ICE agent's deadly actions
ICE will not voluntarily identify any agent involved in a shooting.
State and local officials have no authority or power to force ICE to deescalate its use of force.
State and local prosecutors have little to no authority to charge ICE agents in a shooting.
The rare cases that state prosecutors have brought against an ICE agent for deadly force has been squashed or tossed on appeal.
The slaying of Good and Keith Porter were part of an escalating pattern of open license to use deadly force by ICE and will continue.

In The ICE Shooting Scorecard, Hutchinson chronicles ICE's outrageously high scorecard of shootings and use of deadly force. He assesses how and why its deadly force use policy has created fear, anger, and turmoil in many communities. He spotlights the shooting of Renee Good and Keith Porter as textbook examples of the questionable use of deadly force and how ICE justifies the shootings.
