ICE agents involved in the fatal shooting of Silverio Villegas González in Chicago were not wearing body cameras, despite agency policy mandating their use where cameras are available. The shooting sparked outrage, with calls for transparency from officials like Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. ICE claims González resisted arrest and attempted to flee, leading an officer to fire his weapon. The incident is under investigation by the FBI, and ICE says its own internal review will follow. The lack of body cameras and the agency's infrequent release of such footage highlight ongoing concerns about accountability and transparency within ICE.
