That guy’s (a lawyer) case was rejected by three Grand Juries, until they recharged him under statute that didn’t require a Grand Jury.
When they got to court, the ICE Ape “victim” testified that when the sandwich hit him, it burst open, and mustard and onions covered his body armor, and the smell gave him PTSD, which now uncontrollably triggers whenever he smells onions or mustard. His life was totally ruined by that sandwich throwing meanie.
During cross-examination, the defense really let the guy sell the story of his victimization really hard, then they displayed a photo of the sandwich, taken by investigators AFTER the incident, and it was fully, tightly wrapped by a Subway Sandwich Artist, who really knew how to wrap a sandwich. Give that person the Employee of the Month Award.
The ICE Ape’s testimony was proven to be an obvious total lie, and the dependent was quickly found not guilty. The ICE Ape was NOT charged with perjury, which is the real crime in this story.
And the defendant was a lawyer, who won his case, so if he was fired, I’m sure he’s been hired, by now. If not, he should do a GoFundMe, and he’ll be a millionaire in a few days.
It doesn’t make it all better, but it illustrates that their intimidation strategies are failing badly, but only if the whole story is heard.
By your telling, a guy was badly victimized by ICE. In my telling, he gets his revenge, and humiliates them. Making people fear them is good propaganda, but may have the effect of scaring people into not engaging. Making people see their virtuosic incompetence energizes people to continue to resist.

Ah okay. I guess that makes it all better.
