I finally got to layer 3 on Casualties: Unknown.
The random spikes falling from the ceiling were spooky. I also fell past a turret thing and it gave me a damn heart attack, but it didn't hurt me.

An examination of cases in which people were arrested for supposedly assaulting an immigration agent finds that
nearly half of those charges were either dropped or resulted in no conviction
— suggesting that federal law enforcement has engaged in widespread misconduct in carrying out Trump’s mass deportation campaign.
The New York Times report, published on July 18, examined the close to 550 cases in which individuals
