The HNBA extends its deepest condolences to the family of Joan Sebastian Guerrero, a 26-year-old Colombian man fatally shot by a federal immigration officer in Maine, just days after the killing of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston.

The American people should not be left to reconstruct the truth from bystander footage, shifting accounts, and silence. We are calling for an independent investigation, full disclosure of evidence, and an enforceable commitment to body-worn cameras for federal immigration officers.
