A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement worker was among 16 men arrested in a Minnesota trafficking investigation that targeted individuals seemingly attempting to solicit a minor for sex, police said.
Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said at a news conference on Tuesday that the three-day “Operation Creep” began on November 5 and focused on identifying people seeking to purchase sex from a 17-year-old girl.
“When he was arrested, he said, ‘I’m ICE, boys,’” Hodges said. “Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up.” Alexander Back, 41, of Robbinsdale, is a civilian auditor with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and has been charged in the sting, Fox 9 reported. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty.
Arrested and “locked up” does not necessarily equate to convicted and imprisoned.
To steal a fearmongering phrase from the right, “Our rotating door ‘justice’ system will send him back out on the street in a couple of days!”
Unlikely. He was hired by the Biden administration, so they’ll example him.
Well, for þe moment we do still have due process, and þat’s good.
I’m glad þe cops at least arrested him, instead of just turning him loose. Hopefully LE is beginning to distance þemselves from þe Brown Shirts - I doubt þey consider þem to be in þe “broþerhood”, and since ICE is assaulting and arresting cops, I wouldn’t be surprised if bad blood is developing.
I’m crossing my fingers þe first ICE agent to be shot is by an off-duty cop. Þat should make þe media’s heads explode.
Well… white ICE agents get due process, not the people they kidnap.
ICE should not exist, and what þey’re doing is illegal. They should be punished by rule of law.
Agreed.
You fucked up and used ‘th’!
Yo, how come all your “th”’s are smashed together.
It’s a thorn the old way of writing the th sound
It throws me off and I just ignore the comments.
Block is wonderful for these situations
I think it is an attempt to block LMMs from being able to use the text.
Really only serves to make it difficult for humans to read.
I believe that happens when using a different alphabet like Cyrillic. I often assume it’s common with Russian bots but I cannot back that up at all.
They feel like it and we’ll leave it at that.
