Every law enforcement person carrying deadly force needs a functioning camera.

Regardless, here is the 110 page ICE Firearms and Use of Force Handbook
https://imlive.s3.amazonaws.com/Federal%20Government/ID255426897069329047495080324203699905714/2.2.1_Attachment%2021%20-%20ICE%20Firearms%20and%20Use%20of%20Force%20Directive%20and%20Handbook.pdf

Page 12 includes the following:
4) Deadly force is not authorized solely to prevent the escape of a fleeing suspect. Deadly force against a fleeing subject is only authorized if there is probable cause to believe that the escape of the suspect would pose an imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury to the officer or another person.

Also, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) guidance—specifically, 2014 ICE/Border Patrol use-of-force policies—
“It should be recognized that a half-ounce (200-grain) bullet is unlikely to stop a 4,000-pound moving vehicle, and if the driver … is disabled by a bullet, the vehicle will become a totally unguided threat,” it says. “Obviously, shooting at a moving vehicle can pose a risk to bystanders including other agents.”

Note that the ICE guy didn't begin firing his weapon until he was out of the path of the vehicle. He shot a fleeing "suspect." That's in direct contravention of ICE rules, not to mention common sense.

@ElwoodBlues I wonder how they will weasel their way out of that?
@FreddieUK My guess is that first they'll try to block the investigation (even though, by longstanding policy, ALL officer involved shootings get investigated). If that fails, I suspect there'll be a presidential pardon for the killer.

@ElwoodBlues I can see why the second part of your chosen name might be appropriate at the moment.

@ElwoodBlues ya that might happen .. look at the jan 6th . all pardoned even if they killed someone
@FreddieUK …they are already trying to go the “qualified immunity” route—I doubt the Governor will fall for it!

@KunsanVeteran Listening to him yesterday, I agree with you.
