In the months following the shooting, the video was leaked and posted online. It went viral, sparking worldwide news coverage that culminated in showings on national news programs. Today, though, the video's traces are hard to find. The YouTube page that once hosted it bears a "video no longer available" message, as do numerous other places it once existed online. A search for "Ramiro Gamez Acosta," the 20-year-old man shot and accused of illegally crossing the border, is more likely to turn up news accounts of the incident than Lorenzo's. But that hasn't stopped Lorenzo and his wife from suing the U.S. government. In court documents, they said that releasing the video of the shooting invaded Lorenzo's privacy and destroyed his reputation, exposing him and his family to death threats.
