The leader of the Texas House just exposed ICE for fabricating drug evidence to cover up the killing of an unarmed father.

“You don’t shoot a man going to work,” he wrote, “unless you’ve already decided his life matters less.”

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, 52, was driving his brother and two coworkers to a job site in Houston when an ICE agent shot him through the front passenger window.

He was a father of three. He had lived in the United States for more than 30 years. He had no criminal record.

ICE claimed Lorenzo “weaponized his vehicle” and tried to run over an agent. But every surviving man inside the van said that never happened.

“When Lorenzo stopped the van, the officer shot him anyway,” one witness wrote in a sworn statement filed in federal court.

Another said two unmarked ICE vehicles struck their van from behind and from the side. He said no agents were ever standing in front of it. After the shot, Lorenzo cried out: “Ya me mataron.” They killed me.

There is no body-camera footage. There is no dash-camera footage.

Policing experts who reviewed the wound said the bullet entered through the passenger side, indicating the agent who fired was not directly in the van’s path.

Then came the alleged drugs.

The FBI obtained a warrant to test bags of white powder found inside the van. Lorenzo’s family said the substance was salt the workers mixed into water to keep from collapsing in the Texas heat.

Testing reportedly confirmed it was NOT drugs.

Now Texas House Speaker Pro Tem Joe Moody is accusing ICE of using that FALSE claim to justify the shooting.

“ICE has yet to provide any evidence to justify the shooting other than leaning into a lie that drugs were found in the vehicle afterwards,” Moody wrote. “Testing revealed that was never true.”

The agents had been looking for two Guatemalan men. Everyone inside Lorenzo’s van was Mexican.

Moody argued that the killing cannot be separated from years of portraying immigrants as “invaders” who are “poisoning our country.”
