Agents tried to detain Castro Rivera and the three other passengers, and he fled on foot, tried to cross Interstate 264 in Norfolk and was fatally struck, according to state and federal authorities.

DHS blamed Castro Rivera’s death on “a direct result of every politician, activist and reporter who continue to spread propaganda and misinformation about ICE’s mission and ways to avoid detention.”

    The problem with making that assumption is that it downplays the very scary degree of spying technology (evidenced by contracts with firms that supply such) they are using.

    It’s a new degree of surveillance escalation to this fascist organization, and it’s bad news for everyone.
