Info on the murder of Alex Pretti, Renee Nicole Good, and other ICE atrocities

The great majority of those in ICE custody have NO criminal convictions. These are NOT the worst of the worst!

Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University reports that 52,504 out of 70,766 - or 74.2% held in ICE detention have no criminal conviction according to data current as of January 25, 2026.

The right-wing Cato Institute reports (Nov 2025) that only 5% of people detained By ICE have violent convictions, while 73% have no convictions whatsoever.

BBC article about the Mar 15 2025 ICE killing of Ruben Ray Martinez, age 23, South Padre Island TX.

Gunfire rings out in the nighttime footage when Ruben Ray Martinez, 23, pulls his car forwards as law enforcement try to stop him on 15 March 2025 in the beach community of South Padre Island.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) did not publicly disclose an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer killed Martinez until the detail emerged in media last month.

DHS have said Martinez "accelerated forward" and "intentionally ran over" an agent, causing another agent to fire "defensive shots".

Martinez is believed to be the first of three US citizens who have been fatally shot by federal immigration agents during President Donald Trump's second term.

But unlike in the other two cases, Martinez was not protesting - he was driving by the scene of a road accident where ICE officers were helping to direct traffic.
