Today, we’re bringing you the best from another KUOW show, Soundside.

A disturbing image shared by Senator Patty Murray has been reverberating across the internet…

It shows a man’s torso, his right side covered in wounds - lacerations, scratch marks, bite marks - after he was mauled by an immigration agent’s canine. Blood splatters the sheets below him.

The man, Wilmer Toledo-Martinez of Vancouver, Washington, was detained outside his home last month by federal agents. 

Senator Murray and Wilmer’s family are calling for his release – and calling out the violent treatment he received at the hands of immigration officers.

Soundside’s Libby Denkmann spoke to Toledo-Martinez’s attorney, Olia Catala.
