Immigration attorneys in San Francisco are alarmed by recent ICE arrests in federal courthouses, which they deem highly unusual. During one incident, agents arrested individuals outside a courtroom, raising concerns among attorneys who believed such locations were safe for those with pending immigration cases. NBC Bay Area's coverage revealed that this aggressive approach stands in contrast to the traditionally 'hands off' policy ICE maintained regarding ongoing immigration cases. The administration cites law enforcement policies as a rationale for these actions, which have drawn significant criticism from immigration rights advocates.
"Immigration attorneys at the courthouse were reportedly outraged about the ICE action, which they say is not normal and highly unusual."
"Traditionally, immigration court has been sort of 'hands off' for ICE agents, because most people here have pending, ongoing immigration cases."
