Federal investigators are finally interviewing Border Patrol personnel who were present in September when viral images showed agents on horses try to block Haitian migrants from entering Del Rio, Texas, ABC News reports.
The investigation was initiated by CBP following public outrage over Border Patrol agents on horses chasing and grabbing Haitian migrants.
Homeland Security officials suspended the use of horse patrols following the shocking images, and President Biden pledged a swift investigation that will result in “consequences.”
But since then, the investigation has been anything but swift.
Some have defended the agents, saying they were just doing their job.
Details of the current investigation weren’t clear.
At least two of the agents in the photos remain on administrative leave.
