""The unprecedented incursions into our communities by ICE, Border Patrol and Homeland Security agents have eroded, not enhanced, public safety," Hayden said. "Further, the Trump administration's cruel and deceitful slanders of Mr. Pretti and Ms. Good - including blatant lies about the circumstances leading up to their deaths prior to full and proper investigations - are an insult to all Americans.""
""The DA pledged to defend his constituents' right to "peacefully protest and observe, monitor and document law enforcement activities without threat of violence or detention." Hayden also denounced recent ICE operations in Maine and promised to stand with immigrant communities during what he dubbed a "harrowing national moment." "I encourage our federal partners to work with, not against, state and local law enforcement and to carry out their duties in a lawful, transparent and non-violent manner," Hayden said in the statement.""
Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden strongly criticized federal immigration agencies and the Trump administration after federal agents in Minneapolis killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Hayden described the deaths as appalling and said the mission and tactics of ICE, CBP, and DHS pose a threat to citizens and erode public safety. He called recent administration statements about the victims cruel and deceitful and condemned alleged lies about circumstances preceding the deaths. Hayden pledged to defend constituents' rights to peacefully protest and monitor law enforcement, denounced ICE operations in Maine, and urged lawful, transparent cooperation between federal, state, and local agencies.
