Showing Original Post only (View all)ICE raids Newark facility arresting migrants, citizens, and at least one veteran without warrants [View all]
https://www.newarknj.gov/news/mayor-ras-j-barakas-statement-on-ice-raid-on-newark-business-establishmentToday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents raided a local establishment in the City of Newark, detaining undocumented residents as well as citizens, without producing a warrant. One of the detainees is a U.S. military veteran who suffered the indignity of having the legitimacy of his military documentation questioned. This egregious act is in plain violation of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees the right of the people be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures .
Newark will not stand by idly while people are being unlawfully terrorized. I will be holding a press conference in alliance with partners ready and willing to defend and protect civil and human rights. Details to come.

Once they violate a "clearly established" constitutional rights they put themselves in jeopardy.

That is a pretty thorough run down of how LEO's could lose QI but nothing in the article pointed to those things. ICE

They forced a U.S. Citizen Army veteran to ID without RAS. They held them prisoner. There was no warrant.

I cannot find a case where an ICE agent was stripped of QU for a detention of limited duration. I did find one where

We will see what the courts rule. I am not optimistic for a stripping of QI but I could well be surprised! nt

That's not correct. Warrants require probable cause, which is a much higher bar than RAS
