Court Transcripts Show Border Patrol Official Greg Bovino Dodging Questions About Use of Force

Deposition transcripts reveal evasive tactics by Border Patrol leaders on use of force during Chicago protests, influencing a judge's injunction limiting physical and chemical measures.

  • A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction restricting Border Patrol agents from using physical force or chemical agents like tear gas, unless necessary or to prevent an immediate threat.
  • Border Patrol official Greg Bovino dodged questions about using force against protesters, including denying he tackled a man in a video and claiming agents were justified in using tear gas before a Halloween parade.
  • Officials admitted agents do not receive regular crowd control training and the consistent use of tear gas stopped after state police took over responding to the protests.
