ICE kidnapping US citizens

2019-02-06 00:38:40.079307+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

ICE held an American man in custody for 1,273 days. He’s not the only one who had to prove his citizenship:

Since 2012, ICE has released from its custody more than 1,480 people after investigating their citizenship claims, according to agency figures. And a Times review of Department of Justice records and interviews with immigration attorneys uncovered hundreds of additional cases in the country’s immigration courts in which people were forced to prove they are Americans and sometimes spent months or even years in detention.
