A report reveals that at least seven U.S. citizens were mistakenly detained or deported during the Trump administration's aggressive anti-immigrant efforts. This situation likely involves many more cases, as the report does not provide a complete list. Detention instances included citizens presenting proper identification, indicating a troubling trend in indiscriminate targeting by immigration officials. Experts warn that pressure to expedite deportations has increased the risk of U.S. citizens being unlawfully detained, which is exacerbated by the lack of visible indicators of citizenship.
The report doesn't include a definitive list, meaning there are likely many more examples of citizens being detained.
At least seven U.S. citizens - but likely far more - have been detained, deported or otherwise targeted by the Trump administration's mass deportation campaign.
As immigration officials become more indiscriminate about who they're targeting... the possibility of illegally detaining and deporting a U.S. citizen rises immensely.
The publication documented numerous examples of citizens being targeted, including children, who were detained despite showing identification demonstrating their citizenship status.
