New bodycam footage and emails have been released, revealing new details about how a federal immigration agent shot U.S. citizen Marimar Martinez five times in Chicago last October. The footage shows Border Patrol agents in their vehicle with weapons drawn and fingers on the triggers, as Martínez can be heard honking her car’s horn in the background to alert neighbors about the presence of federal agents.
Border Patrol agent: “Do something, bitch. … All right, it’s time to get aggressive and get the f— out.”
Shortly after the incident, Gregory Bovino, who was leading the Trump administration’s mass deportation campaign at the time, emailed the agent, “In light of your excellent service in Chicago, you have much yet left to do!!” Martinez’s attorneys said Wednesday they will seek tens of millions of dollars in damages under the Federal Torts Claim Act.
