More on the blind refugee in Buffalo that Border Control agents killed.

[wnylib]

Buffalo NPR and the Buffalo newspaper say that Nurul Amin Shah Alam was dropped off at a Tim Hortons that was closed. He did not have any shoes. He was wearing orange paper booties issued to him at the holding center. His body was found 5 miles from there.

Temps in this region at night have been in the teens, with wind chills near zero.

Buffalo mayor Ryan said about the agents who left him at a closed restaurant that it was not just bad policing. It was bad human beings. They should have taken him to one of the several shelters in Buffalo.

Buffalo police and the county DA's office are investigating.

That poor man must have wandered around trying to find shelter.

1. Bruises?......................

[wnylib]

3. No reports of bruises. They killed him by

abandoning him at a closed restaurant at night during a cold Buffalo winter. He was blind and could not ask for help because he did not speak English.

[Cirsium]

2. Manslaughter

Kidnapping and manslaughter. Felony criminal behavior.

[patphil]

5. I think 2nd degree murder is more appropriate.

[Maraya1969]

6. I'm sure there are videos of him being let off

[wnylib]

10. There are body cam videos that police and the DA are

looking at in their investigation.

[wnylib]

7. I hope those agents are charged and c9nvicted.

They can serve their sentence in a DHS detention center, aka American concentration camp.

[underpants]

4. Just so tragic

[bluestarone]

8. A human body means nothing to these

MONSTERS!

[malaise]

9. Murder

That is all

[hlthe2b]

11. Manslaughter charges MUST be brought against those sadistic barbarians.

And I want a public PERP walk!

[SheltieLover]

13. And state charges!

[hlthe2b]

28. Yes. I am assuming only state charges. DOJ is defunct the next three years except retribution, I guess

[SheltieLover]

33. They are ridiculous!

[justhanginon]

12. They knew exactly What they were doing.

I would imagine there were more than one agents involved and it is incredible to me that not one would speak up and say we can't do this. What vile, disgusting semi human beings ICE employees are.

[malaise]

15. Racism and cruelty is the point

Effin monsters

[wnylib]

17. I agree. This looks like it was intentionally cruel.

As a deliberately life endangerment action I think that murder might apply more than manslaughter.

[doc03]

14. What was his cause of death, the weather?

[wnylib]

16. Yes. Exposure on a freezing cold night with no shoes and

insufficient clothing to keep warm. Not only have the temps been very cold this winter, for longer stretches than usual, but this is one of the windiest winters I have ever seen. The cold is bone chilling. Even after coming indoors, it takes a long time to warm up.

[doc03]

20. That is what I assumed, I never saw the cause death posted. They should be charged with

murder.

23. The medical examiner said the cause of death was "health related in nature" and ruled out exposure or homicide

https://www.counton2.com/news/national-news/ap-police-probing-death-of-a-nearly-blind-myanmar-refugee-dropped-off-at-a-doughnut-shop-in-buffalo/

The county medical examiner determined the cause of death was “health related in nature” and ruled out exposure or homicide, according to the Buffalo Police Department. Detectives were investigating the events leading up to his death, first reported by the Investigative Post.

[wnylib]

29. I didn't see that. The incident has front page headlines

in the newspaper but I had not read the whole article when I posted about the cause

Seems like a strange coincidence that he would die of a health related cause and not exposure when he was outdoors without shoes in freezing weather. If he had a health condition, surely the cold did him no good.

[sl8]

30. I'm not quite sure what to make of it.

Hopefully,, the family will get get a second opinion from their own pathologist.

[wnylib]

31. I'm wondering if the cause of death was a political rather than a medical ruling.

[Blue Owl]

18. I wanna see ICE heads rolling over this

And countless other acts of craven, unnecessary brutality they have inflicted on thousands of Americans — most of whom are later found innocent (and fuck their shrug offs)

[Dawgman49]

19. Negligent homicide

[GiqueCee]

21. About those warehouses they're buying up...

... it would be nice to fill 'em up with ICE agents, doncha think? One entrance, no exits.

[dalton99a]

22. They murdered him.

[CanonRay]

24. Criminally Negligent Homicide

At the very least

[Zackzzzz]

25. In Minneapolis,

Ice was dumping detained people, some injured,
without proper clothing in a woods in the middle of the night.

[wnylib]

35. Hideously contemptible.

[ChicagoTeamster]

26. They should get 15 - 20 for involuntary manslaughter.

[BaronChocula]

27. Malice aforethought would seem easy to prove

They intentionally left him in harm's way. It was no mistake.

[La Coliniere]

32. Looks like he was attempting to get back home.

I’m very familiar with Buffalo. It appears he walked from the Tim Horton’s on Niagara St. where he was criminally and cruelly discharged, about 5 miles south and then dropped dead very close to where he actually lived. It’s curious and tragic that law enforcement didn’t see this shoeless man struggling along Niagara St and intervene in some way. He’d have to walk along major thoroughfares to get from point A to point B and there would’ve been frequent patrol cars passing by him along that route. That said, the bastards who dumped him at the closed donut shop need to be brought to account and charged, at a minimum with manslaughter.

[wnylib]

34. I am familiar with Niagara Street but not

with the area where he was found.

I would think that Buffalo police would patrol around Niagara Street. A man stumbling around would be noticeable. Maybe they saw him and thought he was drunk. They would stop a drunk driver but not a drunk walker.

He survived attacks on his people in Myanmar only to die as a refugee in the US.

There are no words to describe my contempt for ICE.
