Civil-rights shirt triggers mistrial in ICE detention shooting case

TL;DR Summary
A Fort Worth federal judge declared a mistrial in the nine-defendant Prairieland ICE detention center shooting case after defense counsel wore a shirt bearing civil-rights imagery during voir dire. The judge halted jury selection amid anti-ICE sentiments from prospective jurors, saying political messages don’t belong in the process. Jury selection will restart with a new pool on Monday; the case—linked to alleged antifa activity—may proceed, with sanctions possible for the attorney.
