  1. Apparently, after the #ICE agent told his ex-wife he shot #JohanSebastiánGuerrero, she doxed him to the press! Good for her!

    Also, this pretty much sums up the kind of folks that ICE is hiring... "Ashley Brouillette [the ICE agent's wife] told a reporter that she wanted to speak publicly because she had previously reported concerns to his superiors in the military about #DavidBrouillette’s mental health."

    ICE agent who killed man in #BiddefordME identified as former Maine law enforcement officer

    An ex-wife told the Press Herald that David Brouillette called her and admitted he was the ICE agent who shot Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero.

    Excerpt: "The federal immigration agent who shot and killed a 25-year-old Colombian man in Biddeford has been identified as David Michael Brouillette.

    "Brouillette, who is 37 and lives in Manchester, was identified by an ex-wife as the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent who shot #JohanSebastiánDuránGuerrero on Monday.

    "Ashley Brouillette told the Portland Press Herald in a phone interview Thursday afternoon that her ex-husband called admitting to the shooting and defending his actions. The Press Herald, the first news outlet to report David Brouillette’s identity, reviewed a screenshot of incoming calls that Ashley Brouillette said she received from her ex-husband via his current wife’s Facebook account on Wednesday.

    " 'He was asking me to lie for him and to cover for his character,' Ashley Brouillette said. 'I told him that I was not going to lie for him. And then he tried to say that it was a justified shooting because the guy tried to hit him with his car.'

    "She said she has seen videos of Brouillette on the scene of the shooting and told him: 'Nowhere in there does it show that this man charged at you with a car.' "

  2. Protesters shoo Gov. #JanetMills from Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero’s memorial in #BiddefordME

    ‘Don’t come back up here unless you got results!’ one person yelled at the governor.

    by Drew Johnson, Dylan Tusinski, July 15, 2026

    "Angry protesters on Wednesday shooed Gov. Janet Mills from a memorial for #JohanSebastiánDuránGuerrero at the intersection where he was killed this week by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent.

    Video posted by the Boston Globe showed a crowd yelling at Mills, who was in Biddeford to meet with local leaders and pay respects to Guerrero. Mills had called for ICE to take certain measures or be abolished at a press conference earlier in the day.

    " 'Do something!” one person shouted.'

    " 'You had never cared about us!'

    " 'That’s another dead body!' yelled another. 'Don’t come back up here unless you got results!' "

  3. #Protestors in #ScarboroughME call for #ICE to leave #Maine, demand action from leaders

    A coalition of immigrant advocates, local leaders and concerned residents are holding an "emergency protest" after ICE agents shot and killed a Colombian man in Biddeford on Monday.

    About 200 people gathered in front of the ICE facility in Scarborough a day after federal agents shot and killed a man in Biddeford.

    SCARBOROUGH, Maine — "A group of about 200 local activists, elected officials, community organizations and faith leaders are holding an 'emergency protest' outside the Scarborough ICE facility a day after the shooting death of a Colombian man in #BiddefordME.

    "On Monday, 26-year-old #JoanSebastianGuerrero was shot and killed by ICE, leaving behind a wife, 3-year-old child, and sister.

    "The U.S. Department of Homeland Security says an ICE officer 'fearing for public safety' [BULLSHIT!] shot and killed the driver. It happened as agents were watching a home of someone they believed was in the country illegally and has a final order of removal from the country.

    "Protestors called for the removal of all ICE agents in Maine and the release of all people detained by federal agents.

    " 'The governor has to issue a proclamation, saying that ICE is not allowed in our state, and the Attorney General should direct the State Troopers to be filing criminal charges against the murderers in our community,' said @Todd , one of the organizers of the protest.

    "Representatives from more than 20 organizations attended the protest including: #MaineYouthPower, Maine Small Businesses Association, Maine #DemocraticSocialists of America, the Maine #WomensLobby, #MaineCoalitionForPalestine, the #MaineGreenParty, #MainePRIDE, #MaineTransnet and the Maine #AFLCIO."

  4. This from one of my friends here in #Maine [source has been redacted] with information about the young man #ICE murdered in cold blood in #BiddefordME.

    "Hello, good day. It's unbelievable that we emigrate from our country because of the insecurity, and then something like this happens. | knew and was friends with the person murdered by ICE because it was murder. He was a young worker and never did anything wrong. He just went out to work like everyone else. He left behind a wife and a 3-year-old daughter, all thanks to this racist government. It's unbelievable that this happens here. I've been living here for 5 years and | have all my papers in order. | pay taxes like everyone else. I've never made a single mistake. I'm grateful to this country and this state that has given me everything. Most of the people I've met are excellent people, so | can't explain that hatred and that deep-seated racism in their hearts. May God bless Sebastian. Much strength to his family. May God have him in his holy glory."

  5. #BiddefordME - ICE quickly cordons off body after agents kill another person

    David Edwards, July 13, 2026

    Excerpt: "The killing is at least the 11th fatal shooting involving ICE or Border Patrol agents since Trump took office, the Bangor Daily News reported. Earlier this month, ICE agents fatally shot #LorenzoAraujo, 52, a Houston construction worker, sparking mass protests, the BDN reported.

    "ICE has a recent history in Biddeford specifically. Earlier this year, the agency flooded Maine with agents under "Operation Catch of the Day," a mass enforcement sweep. Of nearly 200 people detained statewide, only 11 had criminal convictions, the BDN reported. The Trump administration had claimed it was targeting the "worst of the worst."

    "Fecteau had blasted the operation as "#warrantless, indiscriminate, and quota-driven detentions."

    "ICE officially announced it had ended the Maine operation in late January, after Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) pressed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Agents remained in the state.

    " 'More than anything else, I want to know why are you in Maine?' Rep. #ChelliePingree (D-ME) said in a video posted to social media.

    "A #protest against ICE is planned for noon Monday at #MechanicsPark in Biddeford, according to WABI-TV. ICE and the Department of Homeland Security have not responded to requests for comment."
