When Walmart employee Adrian Andrew Martinez, an American Born, tried to inquire about a coworker who was being detained in Pico Rivera...Martinez himself was detained after a violent struggle with federal agents.
This incident is important because agents claimed Martinez pulled a punch and assaulted a federal agent. Security footage provided proof that this was untrue...which seemingly sets a questionable tone upon accusations against others. (edited) 9h
While I have made comments about most of the stories I've gathered for this post...I did a whole standalone post about the following American, which did include an update.

FBI agents took Alejandro Theodoro Orellana into custody for allegedly “distributing face shields to suspected rioters”
A video appears to show Orellana giving these face shields to random people during daylight hours. It seems odd that Orellana would be held accountable if one or more of these apparent “strangers“ later became violent.
Some sources claim that Orellana is a former U.S. Marine.
