The Atlantic magazine reported that Gregory Bovino was removed from his position as border patrol special agent and returned to his original post, continuing as the supervisor of the El Centro sector in California along the U.S.-Mexico border, and will soon retire there. However, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security, Tricia McLaughlin, responded that Bovino was not removed from his position. Therefore, we can only wait for further official statements from the United States.
If Bovino was indeed removed, it would indicate that he became the scapegoat for the Prete incident. The most critical issue is the resulting chain reaction, which would mean that the hard-line immigration policy of the old man suffered a major blow, and the loyalty of the border patrol and ICE to the old man would decrease, and they would no longer work as actively.
