Would they wear them but ‚forgot‘ to turn them on during their ‚raids‘?
A federal judge in Chicago, ***Sara L. Ellis***, [*ordered*](https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ilnd.487571/gov.uscourts.ilnd.487571.66.0.pdf) U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents involved in the “*Operation Midway Blitz*” immigration enforcement effort in the Chicago area ***to wear and activate body-worn cameras during all interactions with the public***, citing concerns that their conduct violated a prior court order. Ellis expressed alarm after seeing video footage of ICE agents deploying tear gas and other forceful tactics and scheduled a hearing with senior ICE officials to assess compliance with her directive. The order aims to *ensure transparency and accountability* in future ICE operations, addressing growing concerns about the agency’s adherence to constitutional limits during enforcement actions.
not enough IMO.
Need to force them to using Nody Cams that DONOT “MALFUNCTION”
And who exactly is going to enforce said order?
So far during this administration, the lower court judges have been the adult in the room among people upholding laws. Congressional Republicans have abdicated much of their responsibility to the executive branch at the cost of their constituents. Go judges!
What happens when they don’t do this? Nothing?
Good for her, give that woman a cigar.
Good. Still won’t silence the people who think doing any kind of immigration enforcement at all is fascist.
Were they ordered to turn them on and keep them on and not cover them when they are committing crimes of violence?
Let’s see if they don’t where them what will the court do then.
It is a great paper trail though for when these turds eventually get sued as a dept and individually. Showing they don’t comply so they don’t have a leg to stand on.
Also these lil people gonna find out real quick like that one ICE agent did. being a fed doesn’t mean shit when you’re operating in state jurisdiction. That’s not federal ground. They can go to jail (some have) they can go to prison (some have) when states start flexing on them I don’t want to hear Krispy Gnome’s mouth, either.
Cause if you think these cops want ICE in their cities walking all over them and usurping their authority I got a bridge to sell you they gonna start getting with the mayors and pushback hard on these fucks in the next coming weeks/months. The kitchen is way too small for two power hungry entities to coexist.
Federal law doesn’t require ICE to wear body cameras. ICE has their own policy on it (which they can change at any time), but it specifically exempts using them during 1st amendment demonstrations like protests. The judge could tell ICE to follow their own policy, but making them wear one at all times is above what the law requires, hence the „judicial activism“ charged by the DOJ and the future reversal by appellant courts.
Abolish ICE. History will not be kind to them.
But seriously, we get back power, shut that fucking thing down day 1.
Body cameras were used by the Border Patrol and ICE in 2022, it was fought by their unions unsuccessfully, but the data storage system costs for 60,000 CBP and ICE officers was found to be unreasonably high. The Border Patrol still can’t afford dash cameras for their vehicles.
There’s no reason all cops should not have body cams on.
They should have to push a button to temporarily turn them off for bathroom breaks and such.
They should have a camera attached to their weapon that turns on the second it’s drawn and records until holstered. The weapon camera can be networked with the body camera to automatically save the footage from both.
Their vehicles should be rigged up with cameras like a Tesla and networked with their other cameras to save footage when an incident happens like a crash or a weapon being drawn.
If us peasants have AI enabled cameras watching everything we do and giving access to law enforcement, there’s no excuse for law enforcement other than they don’t want the accountability.
Judges have ordered this administration to do plenty of things, compliance will be the issue.
Can’t wait for them to not and for no one to do anything about it….just like everything else illegal they’ve been doing
They won’t even show their faces or even say they’re ICE. We have no idea who these people are. How do we expect them to follow this order? May as well say „Criminals have been ordered to film and post their crimes on Youtube.“
Anyone have an update on whether any of these judicial rulings are getting enforced?
(Obviously this one just happened but anything lately my reaction is just like oh okay I’m sure the executive branch will enforce this ruling against… the executive branch. Shit.)
