It is incredibly clear why he didn't wear one. He was hot to shoot someone, anyone

"More than 20 people have been shot by federal immigration agents since Trump took office in January 2025. Six people, including three U.S. citizens, have been killed in those shootings, nearly all of which involved officers firing at people in vehicles." https://www. nytimes.com/2026/09/20/us/ice- shooting-austin-texas.html # DonaldTrump # Trump…

The ICE officer who shot Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez was not wearing a body camera in order to protect himself from accountability for the crime he committed.

You guys are really REALLY dumbing down in preparation for John Fetterman being one of your festival keynote speakers (MTG being the other)

-
If the Agents elect to not wear body cam, then they should be presumed guilty or at least there should be a serious charge for not wearing body camera when they are involved in a shooting.
-
Oh, I can help. Law enforcement people turn off or take off their body cams when they want to commit crimes without being caught.
-
Masks that infringed on their rights during covid...🙄

Puleeeeze. THEY wear MASKS for god’s sake. And THEY are held unaccountable by DHS‼️
-
I bet he'd love to have a video of himself shooting an unarmed man in the back. He just doesn't want it in the hands of actual law enforcement.
-
No body camera is an incentive for aberrant and abhorrent behaviors.
-
If he had a body camera and wasn't using it / failed to activate it, then it's safe to assume that anything he might have to say about the incident is a lie.
-
Amazing how these body cameras are on when drinking coffee, driving but somehow not on or malfunction during actual encounters.
-
K
then he should be presumed guilty of 'obstructing justice'
-
Automatic dismissal or they’ll never comply
-
Because he was committing crimes. There should be consequences for not wearing a body cam when ordered. Shit there should be consequences in general. Remember consequences?
-
B
Because he knew that video footage would incriminate him. Pretty simple.
-
I'm shocked!. . . SHOCKED I tell you. . .
-
"No, you can't pull over to a safer place because we want to shoot you right here."

Oh it's quite clear why he wasn't wearing it, but thanks for pretending.
-
I think we can safely conclude why he wasn't wearing one
-
Starting an encounter without the body camera turned on should be a crime, and subsequently shooting someone should be a felony.
-
It’s plainly clear why he didn’t wear it. He’s a criminal cosplaying as someone with authority. This isn’t going to stop unless WE do something.
