Benjamin Guerrero-Cruz, detained by immigration agents while walking his dog, was moved across state lines without his parents' knowledge. A congresswoman says ICE should be required to notify family when a detainee is transferred.

      Unfortunately the article says he’s 18, so legally they’ll say he’s an adult.

        Legally they’d be right.

        So now it’s just regular human trafficking.

    In a statement, the Homeland Security official condemned the “messaging bill” as a “clear attempt to demonize our brave ICE law enforcement — who are already facing a 1000% increase in assaults against them

    Only 1000%…? Need to boost these rookie numbers guys, if you don’t stop Nazis in their tracks they will walk all over you.

    Also, such brave ICE officers abducting teenagers while carrying guns, couldn’t think of anything less brave.

      Knowing their handling of percentages, those numbers are probably just pulled out of their own asses.

        Didn’t they fire the last statistician that told them the truth? I’m %1,000,000 percent certain they did.

          They did indeed. I’m still waiting on how the 500% price drop Trump announced for medicine will pay out.

            “Here are your medications, citizen. And here is your bag of cash to apologize for having to take our medication.”

            Yeah, right.

    The unnamed official noted that Guerrero-Cruz, a Chilean national, was arrested on Aug. 8 for overstaying his visa, which required him to leave the United States on March 15, 2023.

    So are they just “randomly” arresting people and then checking their immigration status? Because that’s what it sounds like.

      That’s what happens when you have a quota. Wasteful. Expensive. Destabilizing.

      When he was taken into custody Friday morning, immigration agents tied his dog to a tree and then unclipped his collar, allowing the animal to run loose on Sepulveda Boulevard, according to the GoFundMe page.

      Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any information on whether the dog was ultimately recovered or if he’s still missing

        Should I be angry that they just set it loose, or relieved that they didn’t stomp it to death for fun?

          Yeah I was almost expecting to hear that the dog was shot on sight. Seriously what monsters abduct a child while walking their dog. Such patriotic duty.
