  15. 2 bankruptcies & 6 law enforcement jobs in 3 years. An allegation of #lying in a police report to justify a #felony charge against an innocent woman—an incident that led to a $75,000 settlement & criticism of his integrity.

  17. The video contradicts the agent’s claim that 3 assailants had beaten him with a shovel & broom for roughly 3 minutes before he opened fire. Instead, the confrontation depicted in the video lasts about 12 seconds & shows 2 men struggling with the agent. It shows no sustained attack with a shovel.

  24. After the investigative material was released Friday, lawyers for #RubenMartinez’s mother, Rachel Reyes, said the footage called the government’s narrative into question.
“These new videos confirm that Ruben’s car was barely moving when he was shot,” Charles M. Stam & Alex Stamm said in a statement. “That he was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger.”

  30. Sosa told investigators that Martinez’s car struck his legs, causing him to fall over the hood before Stevens opened fire. It is not clear from the nighttime footage whether the exceptionally slow-moving car actually hit Sosa. Footage from a nearby business shows the hood of the Ford. But the video is grainy & skips through some portions & does not definitively show whether there is a figure on top of the hood.
