The mother of Ruben Ray Martinez, a 23-year-old man who was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent, voted for President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, the familys attorney told Newsweek.
Federal immigration agents fatally shot Martinez on March 15, 2025, in South Padre Island, Texas, during a late-night traffic encounter involving local law enforcement and agents from Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).
On Wednesday, the family, through their attorneys, sought to clear up questions around Martinez and his death. One myth they sought to debunk was that Martinez was an anti-Trump protester or political activist.
"Ruben's mother, Rachel Reyes, voted for Donald Trump in 2024," the attorneys said. "Ruben was not protesting anything he was celebrating his 23rd birthday with a childhood friend. Unlike other victims labeled as 'domestic terrorists' by the White House, Ruben was simply a young man trying to get home.
