Intensive care nurses immediately doubted the word of federal immigration officers when they arrived at a Minneapolis hospital with a Mexican immigrant who had broken bones in his face and skull.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents initially claimed Alberto Castañeda Mondragón had tried to flee while handcuffed and “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall,” according to court documents filed by a lawyer seeking his release.
But staff members at Hennepin County Medical Center determined that could not possibly account for the fractures and bleeding throughout the 31-year-old’s brain, said three nurses familiar with the case.
Shouldn’t the agents who brought him in be treated as suspects in an attempted murder case? They should be detained and questioned and charged with obstruction of justice if they don’t comply. That’s what would happen to literally anyone not wearing that uniform who walks into a hospital with a person with life-threatening injuries that appear to be inflicted maliciously.
In a fair and just world, yes
a fair and just world
Fantasy today, reality tomorrow. Like some science fiction. An ideal.
Doubt of anything ICE and DOJ says should be the default starting position.
They have shown themselves to constantly lie about all kinds of things and never apologize for any of their lies. They are simply not credible.
As always, me to DHS:
Immediately doubting the word of ICE goons is a solid strategy, no matter the circumstances.
ICE could tell me fire was hot and I wouldn’t believe them.
This sounds like an explanation the Russian government would give. Looks like those dumb assholes in the I’d rather be Russian than a Democrat shirts got their fucking way.
Reddit is actively blocking this kind of talk fuck that nazi site
To be fair if you’re an ICE goon running headfirst into a wall might be a common activity for you so it seemed like a plausible story to come up with.
These people are too stupid and distrusting of science to understand that medicine and forensics can very much know atleast some of what didn’t happen and did happen based on the injuries sustained and know that you’re lying, and what you likely did to the person.
They just don’t care. They know the administration is going to back them, so they say anything that isn’t totally self-incriminating. I expect they’ll eventually stop caring about that too.
If they didn’t care they wouldn’t bother with an excuse to begin with.
“His head just did that” yeah sure ok
Copaganda: we will use science to figure out what happened during this crime.
Reality: I get to say what happened. Fuck you if you dont like it! What are you gonna do about it? If you reply I get to crack your skull.
only good ICE agent is a
Well people this time around ICE killed the right kind of people. 🙃
This is obviously bitter sarcasm.
Just for the record the poor guy is alive, but with traumatic brain injury
It’s still fucked up and even more fucked no one cares.
It’s almost like incidents without video filmed from multiple people and widely shared online don’t get as much attention as nurses telling a story they were told about an incident we don’t have video of.
It’s really bad, but it’s also entirely understandable that it gets less attention.
Sure, no one cares. Anything is possible when you lie.
