Tragic Shooting in Franklin Park: Calls for Accountability and Reform
The Tragic Shooting of an Undocumented Father by an ICE Agent in Franklin Park
A community in Franklin Park, Illinois is reeling from the tragic death of an undocumented father at the hands of an ICE agent. The victim, who has been identified as 33-year-old Jose Luis Gonzalez-Valencia, was shot and killed by an ICE agent during a traffic stop. According to his attorney, Gonzalez-Valencia had no criminal background and only had a history of minor traffic violations.
Unjustified Use of Excessive Force
This shooting has raised serious questions about the use of excessive force by ICE agents. The victim's family and community members are demanding answers and justice for the senseless killing of a man who posed no threat. The attorney for the victim's family has stated that the ICE agent's use of lethal force was not justified and they will be seeking accountability for their actions.
The Need for Reform
This tragedy highlights the urgent need for reform within the ICE agency.
