The Trump administration opposed expanding the use of body cameras for ICE agents and significantly reduced oversight staffing. This occurred as the administration increased the deployment of officers to US cities, including Minneapolis. These actions took place in the year prior to January when ICE agents fatally shot two American citizen protesters. The lack of body camera footage contrasts with bystander videos, which have challenged official accounts of these shootings, including the death of ICU nurse Alex Pretti. The administration's actions raise concerns about transparency and accountability in ICE operations.
