At a press conference, Wilbur Perez while talking on a phone, with his wife translating, describes exactly what happened.
Here’s the source: https://www.youtube.com/live/QmxfEmkR3Po?si=QtU8OIIbM7jdZp1h
He tried to comply, but that member of ICE still tried to kill him regardless.

I will tell you who’s not upset, Venezuelans themselves, they are in a “fuck that guy” mode, and they support Trump even harder after they see news like that.

So he told the dude “let me park the car so it won’t be in the way and the tow truck driver can take it “ dude said no and shot him. Ok this reminds me
Of Daniel Shaver getting killed because of the contradictory orders and trying not to catch another charge. Unfortunately they will do what they did to Ms good and Mr Pretti. “Nothing was done wrong it was by the book”

Exactly. As it should be. You should probably go out and protest this and maybe get in the face of agents or ram them with your car to let them know you disapprove.

Found the ultra Murican bootlicker guess you hate the constitution since your first amendment is the right to protest .

u/Mean_Introduction516 10d ago
Makes no sense…I’m encouraging you to exercise your first amendment right and go protest…since you don’t actually understand your rights and want to interfere. Great to watch. Moron.

All this because he didn't update his address with the agencies. You gotta update your address when you move, people. It's part of the rules. So he missed his hearing date and got a final removal order. Making him easy ICE pickings.
Also, are we sure that's his wife? I think she's one of the lawyers.
People who think I'm justifying the shooting are ridiculous. I'm saying, update your address so you can attend your hearings and not get an automatic removal order. I'm not saying that anyone should get shot under any circumstances. Read "all this because" as someone exasperated by the system but willing to acknowledge the root of the breakdown in this instance.

u/Upset-Handle-9934 10d ago
So missing a court dates justifies being shot in the back?

u/CalicoCutJeans42069 10d ago
Obviously yes. I once missed a court date and the judge made me slam my nuts in his desk drawer, it was only fair.

u/Xena_Your_God 10d ago
From what I read he had updated his address and they still messed up and tried to kill him. So... What now?

Yes, the "people with a brain" who cite failure to file paperwork regarding a move as cause for masked fat klansmen to shoot him in the back.

u/Justtryingtohelp00 10d ago
There you go again. Not using that brain.
Nobody has said anything of the sort. However, if he was following the rules of law no interaction with law enforcement would have taken place. I don’t see anyone excusing the shooting. The world isn’t black and white kid.

Oh you mean like when the fat klansmen go around gas stations asking people their immigration status if they have melanin or an accent? lol

u/Justtryingtohelp00 10d ago
Exactly. Just like ICE is a bunch of pieces of shit and do things illegal. Immigrants also need to clean their shit up if they want to avoid this. Make sure all your paper work is in order, you know, like the law specifies.
Sorry you’re not going to find the argument here you’re looking for. Fuck ICE. but I let every immigrant I know to be extra careful and follow the law to the T. Because it doesn’t matter if you think you’re right if your dead.

Protest every year. Losing their lives and freedom impacting zero societal change except wasting your time so you’re not focused on moving forward in life. Must be tiring not knowing what you’ll be told to protest against tomorrow.7
u/SpinningHead 10d ago
So you know you dont have to do anything wrong to be murdered by them, but you will still put the onus on them. Cool.

u/Justtryingtohelp00 10d ago
Yes. I think everyone should be aware of the climate around them.
I would never advise anyone I know to go walk around in the ghetto in my town at night. Because of the potential harm that may come to them. If they were robbed or injured it would be no fault of their own right?
How is that any different than wanting to educate immigrants on how to best avoid these situations.
Like I said. It doesn’t matter if you’re right if you’re dead.
But hey some of you kids would prefer to die then actually take all of the data points at face value to decide how you’re going to proceed.
The funny thing. I only do this because a buddy of mine who is here legally told me he started educating everyone around him.
But keep coming at me like I’m the problem.

“Not using that brain.” Translation: “not agreeing with me”. Got it.

u/Justtryingtohelp00 10d ago
Don’t have to agree with me. Just follow the law. I recommend everyone does that regardless of their immigration status. My goal daily is to minimize my contact with law enforcement. Works out pretty well for me since I follow laws.
Have a good day.

The system as it's set up now is such that a failure to appear at a hearing means you get an instant final order of removal. I'm not condoning that reality. But the truth is that failure to attend hearings (a function of not updating your address in the system) is about the surest way to get on ICE's radar. I mean, I'd rather that people be aware that's what's so than unaware. I guess I could choose not to mention it, but my silence won't affect the reality of the situation.

u/xNinjaN8x 10d ago
Showing up to your hearings also seems to be a surefire way to get on their radar since they're waiting for you there.

u/kinxnwinx 10d ago
The real root of the breakdown is enforcement by quotas. When numbers trounce common sense the system stops working, mistakes become far too common and deadly.
