Portland Man Gets 30 Months Prison for Hurling Rock at ICE Officer

—A Portland man was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for throwing a rock at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer during a protest. The sentence reflects the Trump administration's aggressive prosecution strategy for assaults on federal officers, which carries mandatory federal penalties. Defense attorneys had argued for a lighter sentence, contending the incident occurred in a chaotic protest environment. The case is one of many resulting from increased enforcement actions and the protests they have sparked in Portland and other cities.
