Federal investigators received orders to stop probing confrontations involving ICE officers, timing that coincides with an agent having fatally shot an immigrant in Maine. That agent had a documented history of violent incidents. Separately, the DOJ is dropping cases against people arrested during ICE protests because prosecutors mishandled evidence and witnesses.
The pattern here is clear: oversight mechanisms are being dismantled while operational accountability is collapsing. When FBI investigations of law enforcement cease, the only remaining check is prosecution—and those cases are falling apart because of prosecutorial errors. This isn't accidental dysfunction. It looks like a decision to operate without consequences.
