U.S. Justice Department Rejects #CivilRights Complaint Filed for Murder of #RaymondMattia by #USBorderPatrol

By #OpheliaRivas, O'odham Voice Against the Wall, via #CensoredNews, January 6, 2025

"The system of justice for the killing of an American Indian is as expected by the people. The numerous federal agents on the Tohono O'odham reservation are justified in killing our people as they will not be held accountable by the system that pays them to be heavily armed and unmonitored on our land.

"The border patrol have not been prosecuted for deaths, rapes, molestations and human and drug trafficking.

"The Criminal Section of the Civil Rights Division at the Department of Justice wrote to me:

"'The tragic death of Raymond Mattia, who was shot and killed at his home, by officers of U.S Customs and Border Patrol agents Whitehouse, SiFuentes, and Torralva, on May 18, 2023.'

'Mr. Mattia’s death was indeed a tragic loss. Mr. Mattia’s death was indeed a tragic loss. However, the information provided about the circumstances surrounding his death does not disclose a prosecutable violation of the federal criminal civil rights statutes enforced by the Criminal Section. Therefore, we regret that we are unable to assist with this matter."

For 13 years, Ray Kemble has been promised by Pennsylvania & the PA Constitution that he’d have clean water after it was poisoned by Coterra’s (Cabot Oil) fracking. Watch him struggle for justice in this doc. Gov. Shapiro, honor your promise. #JusticeForRay
