Judge Orders Release of Evidence in Border Patrol Shooting Case Involving Chicago Woman

A federal judge has ruled to release various pieces of evidence, including body camera footage and text messages, related to the shooting of Marimar Martinez by a Border Patrol agent in Chicago. Martinez, who was shot five times during the incident, has been vocal about her experience, testifying before Congress that her own government attempted to execute her. As part of the ongoing legal proceedings, the judge lifted the protective order surrounding this evidence, allowing the public to access crucial documents, while Martinez plans to attend Trump’s State of the Union address to advocate for accountability and justice.
