Identity trace
ICE agent David Jackson was exposed in the 2021 Unknown Leads Database leaks. This outed his birth year as 1983, and tied him to the email address “hacstarz@hotmail.com”. Other data breaches show him as tied to the “hackstarz1983@hotmail.com” and “hackstarz1983@yahoo.com” email accounts.
His usage of “hackstarz1983” as a web identity led to a “thekrutchmaster” account on the Jeep Enthusiast Forums, where he included a link to his Yahoo photo gallery operated under his “hackstarz1983” Yahoo account..
This account led to another “thekrutchmaster” account on Officer.com. There, he said he lived in Marblehead MA, that he’d been sworn in as a constable for two and a half years as of his 2008 registration date, and that he was waiting to get into an ICE training academy.
As an ICE agent
“Mr. Zapata Rivera, a resident of Fitchburg, Massachusetts, was driving his wife to work with their one-year-old daughter in the car when they were pulled over by several ICE agents. The agents informed Mr. Zapata Rivera’s wife that they intended to arrest her. The lawsuit alleges an unidentified ICE agent, listed in the lawsuit as Agent John Doe, climbed into the vehicle and pressed his thumbs forcefully on Mr. Zapata Rivera’s carotid arteries, restricting blood flow to his brain. Mr. Zapata Rivera lost consciousness, and he experienced involuntary seizure-like movements. The ICE agent continued to apply the carotid restraint with at least one hand while these involuntary movements continued.”
“The Department of Homeland Security’s own policies prohibit agents from using carotid restraint techniques except when deadly force is justified.”
“The lawsuit also alleges that ICE agents refused to allow Mr. Zapata Rivera to be evaluated by emergency medical personnel at the scene. After his release, he continued to suffer severe physical symptoms and went to the emergency room for treatment.”
“The Department of Homeland Security’s public statements about the incident accused Mr. Zapata Rivera of faking a seizure and refusing medical care.”

In conclusion
ICE poses a threat to our communities, regardless of skin color and immigration status.

No one is illegal. No one deserves to be treated the way ICE treats our communities. The people around David Jackson should know exactly what kind of person he is: a stupid, talentless brute.
