[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]quote=Anonymous]I've read that LEOs are supposed to identify themselves, read miranda rights and have a warrant signed by a judge for arrests. However, it seems pretty common for ICE to wear masks, not identify themselves, have no warrants or warrants not signed by a judge and take away people.[/quote]

Thanks for the questions. First, there is no video I’ve seen circulated on social media or by the news media that supports the assertion that agents aren’t identifying themselves to the target of their enforcement action. The target is the only person that has the right to know who the arresting agent is. That identification has happened every time. More often than not there are multiple agents involved and several will have identifying vests with large patches with their agency name on them. Bystanders, friends and family have no right to know the identity of the agents. This is not new.

Immigration enforcement actions do not require agents to read the subject of the action their Miranda rights.

Immigration enforcement actions are primarily conducted with administrative warrants. Again, this is not new. Administrative warrants allow agents to capture subjects in any public place. If a member of the general public can legally be present in a location, that location is a place where an immigration enforcement action can occur.

There is no law or agency policy that even suggests that ICE agents can’t wear masks. ICE agents wore masks during the Biden administration as well.

[quote=Anonymous]How come there are no lawsuits enforcing those rules?[/quote]

There are no rules they’ve broken. There is no justification for a lawsuit.

[quote=Anonymous]Personally, I think everyone should get due process and criminal illegals should be deported, but wondering why none of the democratic state governors or the variety of non-profits that purport to stand for people's rights have not sued thus far.[/quote]

People forget that there are 1,300,000+ undocumented migrants in the country that have already received their due process and have a final removal order. No one on this forum can corroborate whether the people in the videos they’ve seen do or don’t have a final removal order. Even if they don’t, but they are here illegally, they are still subject to an immigration enforcement action.

[quote=Anonymous] At least get an injunction in state courts so they can't operate like that in a particular state.[/quote]

No court will issue an injunction for an otherwise legal and longstanding practice.

Hopefully that clears things up.[/quote]

There most certainly are news reports of people detained who do NOT have removal orders. And to "get the numbers up" ICE has been told to grab anyone else who happens to be in the vicinity of someone they have targeted, including people showing up to their final green card or citizenship interview.

Really? you can verify that?

Biden-era masks were due to Covid.[/quote]

A mask, is a mask, is a mask. Why are you harassing people doing their part to stop the spread?[/quote]
