Agent Mario Alberto Morales charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon over incident in Houston

A federal immigration agent who drove into and seriously injured a Texas man on 10 October after a botched traffic stop was indicted Friday on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Mario Alberto Morales, 33, an agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), deliberately veered his SUV into Miguel Parra Hernandez, 48, causing multiple leg fractures and a hip injury, journalists at a news conference in Houstonwere told.

In announcing the charge against Morales, Harris county district attorney Sean Teare questioned the training that Morales, a recent appointment by ICE, had received – and denounced the activities and conduct of the agency in support of the frequently violent immigration crackdown during Donald Trump’s second presidency.

    Being a doomer helps only the fascists.

    Quit running their propaganda for them.

      Not a “doomer”, just a realist, and I disagree. People need to stop being complacent.

        You’re absolutely a doomer.

        You can deny the label all you want, but we can all see you plainly out here telling us all that there is no justice and there is no hope. You are by definition, a doomer. Sucks to suck. The evidence is literally in this comment thread. Ain’t no disowning it.

        Your exact message is a message fascists WANT DESPERATELY for you to echo. And they thank you dearly for your service to their cause.
