So I imagine Marisa has retained a team of lawyers and as we speak is preparing the mother of all lawsuits. |
I hope so. Also hope she starts a GoFundMe. |
I can't imagine any fed getting a 5 figure bonus. They are getting bonuses bigger than some fed salaries for torturing people, some of whom are American citizens. |
I'm grateful that she spoke up about her ordeal so that we could learn about it. The more people do that--and the more they capture on video like the abduction of the Turkish student--the sooner Americans will learn about what's really going on and maybe do something about it. Not MAGA because they got off on these spectacles, but any normies who may have voted for the POS. |
The FBI and US Marshals were not involved in this raid. The raid was conducted by an agency called Homeland Security Investigations, which fights global crime to protect US citizens.
Though this family just moved into the house that was raided two weeks prior, the people who were the subjects of the investigation had vacated the property months earlier. https://www.news9.com/story/6813e3df2f451ab1e87efa3d/ice-raids-nw-okc-home-linked-to-human-smuggling-ring |
Unfortunately she will find out she has essentially no legal recourse. Conservatives have completely rigged the system against victims of police misconduct. |
I bet the US citizens who had to stand in the rain in their underwear for hours while goons ransacked their house and stole their money felt so protected. |
Is HSI even a federal org? Or was this outsourced? Or were they renegades? This article doesn't really seem to explain. |
They have no-knock in Montgomery County, too. Happened to George Pelecanos. He wrote a story based on the experience. If I recall correctly, the police stole an heirloom. |
The agency falls under the Department of Homeland Security and is part of ICE. It’s more obscure than most federal law enforcement agencies. Per ICE’s website, HSI is currently headed by Robert Hammer, the Acting Executive Associate Director of HSI, who has declined comment on this case. |
+1 Just like the families of people in the DC plane hit by the military helicopter, there's no payout |
Because? Back to OK families - forget payout, they should get back their devices and the cash they had on hand. |
That and every law enforcement agent dismissed with cause is getting a job with ICE or a contractor. |
+1 HSI is a real agency within DHS but it’s not supposed to be focused on deporting illegal immigrants but ICE is using everybody with a pulse. |
This was part of an investigation into an alleged human smuggling cartel, not a simple deportation case. |
