I don’t think so, but he did say while testifying: “He did it. He threw the sandwich,” that the sandwich “exploded all over” his chest and he felt it through his ballistic vest, and that “You could smell the onions and the mustard”.
The sandwich never left its wrapper.
The defense attorney finished closing arguments with “This case, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, is about a sandwich”

I don’t think so, but it is close to what he was trying to claim when he testified.
In a Sandwich vs. “Ballistic Vest” fight, the Vest will win every time. He might not even feel it. So he can’t claim any physical damages. That means he had to make some sort of claim of mental trauma, which was supposed to be, what? Some sort of PTSD following the horror of the attack, due to the aroma of mustard and onions?
Then there was video evidence of the sandwich in the street, AFTER the attack, and it was still fully wrapped (Give that Subway employee a raise for having a tight hand). He couldn’t have smelled that mustard and onions, because they were never exposed. That means the ICE agent committed perjury on the stand, under oath.
Lock. Him. Up.
