PORTLAND, Ore. — Thirty-four-year-old Trenten Edward Barker is facing a maximum prison sentence of 20 years after pleading guilty to setting fire to a pile of debris at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Portland on June 11, 2025.
Barker will be sentenced on March 4, 2026, when he appears before a U.S. District Court judge. Apart from imprisonment, he also faces the possibility of a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release.
According to court documents, Barker was part of a group of individuals who constructed a barricade against the vehicle gate of the ICE building in an attempt to prevent agents from exiting the premises.
Barker lit a flare and threw it into the barricade of large objects and debris. The flare ignited the barricade, starting a fire.
