Right-wing influencer Laura Loomer launched into an online tirade Friday after learning she had been named in a probe into the recent shooting of a Chicago woman by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
Homeland Security officials initially claimed that 30-year-old Marimar Marínez was in a vehicle that rammed into federal agents and that one of its occupants brandished a semi-automatic weapon, prompting agents to open fire and strike her five times. Marinez’s lawyer has refuted DHS’s account of the incident, however, with body-cam footage appearing to contradict the agency’s version of events.
Now, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) is demanding answers from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, having submitted a letter with detailed questions and a Nov. 16 deadline for response. One question focuses on how Laura Loomer came into possession of photographs of Marínez’s vehicle, images she said were supplied by a “DHS source” and posted online earlier this month.
“Provide details of how Ms. Loomer received these photos and describe whether DHS is investigating the leak of alleged criminal evidence to Ms. Loomer,” the letter reads, and was obtained by Loomer. Loomer decried Murphy for “abusing his power as a U.S. Senator,” and framed his inquiry as “anti-American activity.”
