Ex-FBI Official Slams ICE Shooting as Unjustified, Calls Excuses “Asinine”
Responding to cell phone footage of a fatal shooting by a federal immigration agent, former FBI official Michael Feinberg criticized the agent’s actions and the use of deadly force. Feinberg stated that the video shows officers overreacting to “sarcastic” civilians. He highlighted that being heckled or videotaped is part of the job and does not justify the use of deadly force, citing the agent’s access to protective equipment. Feinberg also criticized comments made by politicians, and called out the unprofessionalism of the remark “fucking bitch” in the footage.
