The Holguin family's troubles with the El Paso Police Department began in 2022, when Adzari Holguin, then a high school senior, was asked by a relative to film the police while they responded to a call about a domestic dispute. After police became aggressive once they noticed Adzari was recording, her father, Eddie Holguin, stepped in to escort his daughter home. That's when police staged an illegal raid on the Holguin residence and arrested Eddie and Adzari. After the raid, the Holguins filed a lawsuit to demand justice. Now, they say the El Paso police are deliberately targeting their family. Police Accountability Report examines the evidence and what this case tells us about cops in America today, who, in many places, not only operate with virtual legal impunity, but also conduct themselves more like a mafia than like law enforcement.
