A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer involved in a fatal shooting of an immigrant in Maine reportedly suffered a head injury in 2021, which he claimed left him with cognitive deficits. The officer's ex-wife has stated that he defended the shooting and held racist beliefs with violent tendencies. The incident has renewed questions about the vetting process for ICE officers.
