@thestressdoc His name was Joan Sebastian Guerrero. He was 26, from Colombia, and he had a work permit and his own Social Security number. Monday morning he was driving to work in Biddeford, Maine. ICE tried to stop his car. He wasn’t even the target of the warrant, DHS later admitted. An agent shot him dead in the street, in front of his 3 year old daughter. “I heard a howl that came from your soul, that your whole life had just changed and it was never going to be the same,” said Mary Hayes, a neighbor who watched it happen. Guerrero lay handcuffed in the street for five hours. This is not an isolated tragedy. Six days earlier in Houston, ICE killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, 52, a construction business owner who had lived in the US for 35 years. He wasn’t the target either. ICE said he “resembled” the man they were looking for. Since January 2025, immigration agents have opened fire 39 times. Nine people are dead. At least five were US citizens. Alex Pretti, a 37 year old ICU nurse in Minneapolis, was filming agents on his phone when he was pepper sprayed, tackled, and shot. Renée Good, a 37 year old mother of three, was shot while turning her car away from agents who had just yelled at her to move. The agent who killed her was reassigned and is back on active duty months later. Ruben Ray Martinez was killed in Texas. Bodycam footage contradicted the official story, and a grand jury still declined to indict. None of these people were armed threats. None of these deaths have led to real accountability. Say their names. Demand bodycams. Demand independent investigations, every time. 🔎 Sources: 1️⃣ CNN, Washington Post, Press Herald, NBC News (July 2026): Joan Sebastian Guerrero, Biddeford shooting 2️⃣ CNN, Houston Public Media, PBS NewsHour (July 2026): Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, Houston shooting 3️⃣ American Immigration Council; Wikipedia tracker of shootings by U.S. immigration agents (2025-2026) 4️⃣ PBS, NPR (Jan 2026): Alex Pretti; CNN, NBC News (Jan 2026): Renée Good; CBS, NPR (2026): Ruben Ray Martinez 👇 How many more names before something changes?
