Retired judge flags the most chilling part of ICE's behavior: 'A dangerous thing!'
A retired judge flagged the most chilling part of Immigration and Customs Enforcement's behavior in cities across the country during an interview on CNN.
Retired U.S. District Judge Shira Scheindlin discussed the recent actions of ICE agents during CNN's "NewsNight with Abby Phillip" on Thursday. She said it has become clear that ICE is operating without any rules and no real oversight from the federal government, which is a recipe for disaster.
"ICE is operating with no real legal controls, no rules," Scheindlin said. "They sort of do whatever they think needs to be done. They're sort of making up the rules for themselves as they go along, and that's a dangerous thing. And that's been the problem with ICE's behavior in these cities throughout these weeks and months. And the judges have pointed that out."
Judges across the country have questioned the Trump administration's immigration enforcement policies. For instance, a federal judge sharply limited ICE's use of certain crowd control tactics following the deadly shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis.
The Associated Press recently reported that Trump's ICE agents are operating under the assumption that they have total immunity, as outlined in a recent memo instructing them to enter people's homes without a warrant.
