ICE agent who killed man in Biddeford identified as former Maine law enforcement officer

Key Points:

• Federal immigration agent David Michael Brouillette, 37, has been identified as the officer who shot and killed 26-year-old Colombian Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Biddeford during an ICE operation.
• Brouillette's ex-wife, Ashley Brouillette, confirmed his identity and stated he admitted to the shooting, claiming it was justified because Guerrero allegedly tried to hit him with a car; she disputes this account and has raised concerns about his mental health and abusive behavior.
• Brouillette is a U.S. Army veteran with nearly a decade of federal law enforcement experience, having held various public safety roles in Maine and worked for the Department of Veterans Affairs and ICE.
• ICE has confirmed Brouillette's experience but has not publicly identified him or other agents involved in recent shootings, including a similar incident in Texas, while DHS stated the man shot was not the intended target of the warrant.
• Brouillette’s professional history includes brief and contentious tenures in multiple roles, including volunteer firefighter and correctional center employee; he has faced criticism for insubordination and conflicts with leadership.
