California Couple Charged with Impeding ICE Agents by Attempting to Ram Car
Breitbart ^ | 05/15/2025 | Bob Price

Federal agents arrested a South Los Angeles couple this week on charges relating to a February incident where the couple allegedly tried to ram an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) vehicle. The couple reportedly drove into oncoming traffic to stop the ICE agents from executing an immigration arrest warrant.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California announced the arrests and charges this week following the arrest of Gustavo Torres, 28, and Kiara Jaime-Flores, 34. The South LA couple are charged with conspiracy to impede or injure an officer.

“These defendants are charged with knowingly and recklessly putting federal agents’ lives in danger,” United States Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli said in a written statement. “Anyone who deliberately gets in the way of immigration officers doing their job will face criminal prosecution and the prospect of doing time in a federal prison cell.”

The incident occurred on February 28 as special agents with ICE Homeland Security Investigations attempted to serve four search warrants at multiple residences in Los Angeles. As agents approached a home in South Los Angeles, prosecutors say a small crowd of protesters gathered and directed “hostile remarks at the agents.” The agents got back into their vehicle to leave the area.

Based on recent news coverage of certain events involving Democrat political figures, I was under the impression that assaulting ICE agents was perfectly acceptable. Sure, criminal charges are “on the table”, which is to say “we don’t ever plan to charge anyone”. But it seems this California case is somehow different. Why is that? Is it the “Democrat political figure” aspect that makes NJ a whole different ballgame?

well, I guess ramming the car would tend to “impede” it

some people think they are just so “entitled” ... to do any damned thing they want... right or wrong...day or night....

Proverbs 25:28:
“A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.”

Aristotle:
“Through (self-) discipline comes liberty.”

These scumbags and the congressional trash should all be locked in cells with Teen de Aragua and MS-13 murderers and rapists. Let them get to know their new BFFs.

Would have read better if it said after the agents withdrew, a barrage of 155s ensued.

You know it does. And I predict that judge in Wisconsin will get off with a sternly worded warning

”Stop that and if you don’t I’ll yell stop again”

I don’t know how much more winning I can take. LOL. This would have never happened under any other administration - and I think I would even include the Reagan admin in that.
