Biography
Eduardo Diaz Guardado was arrested during a June 18, 2025 protest against immigration enforcement outside the ICE office in South Portland, Oregon. Federal prosecutors alleged that he pointed a high-powered laser at a federal officer. He remained in federal custody until his first court appearance on June 20, when a magistrate judge released him on conditions.

The June 20, 2025 District of Oregon charging announcement identifies this defendant as 22 years old at that time. That is consistent with a birth year of 2002 or 2003, depending on the birthday; no single birth year or date has been inferred. The notice confirms release on conditions after the June 20 first appearance, already recorded. Its alleged conduct and statutory maximum penalties are not a conviction or an imposed sentence.
