New York City Mayor Eric Adams has reflected on the recent shooting of two NYPD officers, allegedly by 19-year-old Venezuelan migrant Bernardo Castro Mata. The incident has sparked significant political debate, with former President Donald Trump blaming President Joe Biden for the situation. Mata, who entered the U.S. illegally last year, had his immigration case dismissed within a year of crossing the border. The shooting has drawn attention to sanctuary city policies and the handling of immigration cases. ICE confirmed that Mata was caught and released at the border in Eagle Pass, Texas, in July 2023. Mata had an immigration hearing in Chicago on May 6, during which a DOJ immigration judge closed his case. Prosecutors revealed that Mata fired at one officer at point-blank range and has been arraigned on attempted murder charges from his hospital bed.
