Vetting Under Scrutiny: Maine ICE Shooting Prompts Review Calls

TL;DR Summary
Former border czar Tom Homan told CNN that the ICE officer linked to the July fatal shooting in Biddeford, Maine, likely should not have cleared vetting if abuse allegations from his ex-wives are true, and urged investigators to determine how the vetting process failed. The officer has been identified by news outlets as David Brouillette, though DHS has not confirmed. Democrats are calling for a vetting review as ICE faces renewed scrutiny of its hiring, and the agency has announced body-camera requirements after a separate July Texas case involving Lorenzo Salgado Araujo; Durán Guerrero, a 25-year-old Colombian man, was the victim.
