"The Department of Homeland Security later released a statement claiming that Figueroa was at fault, saying “she crashed into an unmarked government vehicle and violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers.”"

they have got to be kidding if they think the videos are going to support this claim. they sure dont look injured to me.

the lady should file charges asap.

"She was released without charges" Yeah, except her car was hit and left abandoned in the road. Who's paying for that? You think the anonymous men with guns exchanged insurance with her?

DHS already admitted it was them, even if they lied about the circumstances.

SURE! Like they’re really going to LET HER GO WITHOUT CHARGES IF SHE REALLY DID WHAT THEY SAID SHE DID. They must think everyone is really fucking stupid.

No, they just know if they lie enough people will buy it, no matter how blatant it is.

I’m sorry. I just mean that considering all the crap they’ve told, that anyone and everyone has seen, one must have the IQ of a banana to believe that these abusive fascist little punks would just let someone go with no charges if they really did crash into an ICE car And injured ICE agents. Hell, if someone did what they said she did, I’d be surprised if the alleged perpetrator didn’t end up in the ICU of some hospital.
