The mother of Ruben Ray Martinez, a 23-year-old U.S. citizen who was shot and killed by a federal immigration agent last year, is calling for reform as questions mount about the incident.
Martinez was killed by an ICE agent on South Padre Island, Texas — but the agency’s involvement in the March 15, 2025, incident wasn’t publicly disclosed until last month, CBS News reports. Now, his mother, Rachel Reyes, is seeking answers.
