ICE Mistakenly Detains U.S. Marshals Deputy Who ‘Fit The General Description’ Of Intended Person
HuffPost
The deputy’s brief detention comes at a time of increased fear of racial profiling by ICE.
Immigration agents briefly detained a U.S. Marshals Service deputy last month as he was entering a federal building that houses the immigration court in Tucson, Arizona.
The Marshals Service — an agency in charge of enforcing the law in federal courts, protecting judges and apprehending fugitives — confirmed with the Arizona Daily Star on Thursday that a deputy “who fit the general description of a subject being sought by ICE was briefly detained at a federal building in Tucson after entering the lobby of the building.”
Immigration and Customs Enforecement officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment from HuffPost.
“The Deputy US Marshal’s identity was quickly confirmed by other law enforcement officers, and he exited the building without incident,” the Marshals Service told the Arizona Daily Star
It’s unclear what the Marshals Service meant when it said the deputy “fit the general description” of a person being sought by ICE. However, President Donald Trump’s policy of aggressive mass deportation has raised concerns about racial profiling. Legal residents and U.S. citizens, including Native Americans, all have been stopped by ICE.
